If you have a setup completely different to this then turn back now. You’re better off looking for a guide that matches your spec. Prerequisites You will need the following: 1.

Name the partition you’ll be creating Snow Leopard Install DVD so you can keep track of your installation device. After you’ve done this, click the Erase button. 5. After Disk Utility finishes erasing your old data on the flash drive and setting it as a new partition, it will be ready for the Snow Leopard install files. Select the Restore tab at the top and then drag the Snow Leopard DVD to the Source field. Select your USB device, now called Snow Leopard Install DVD for the Destination file. Click Restore and wait for the restoration to finish (about 20 minutes). Boot loader & Kexts 1.

Contents of Extensions 4. Open Terminal and run diskutil list This will list out all mounted drives. Look for the one that corresponds to your USB drive and note the drive number and installation partition. In this example below, the disk number is 2 and the partition is 2, also written as disk2s2 diskutil list Now run diskutil info disk2s2 You’ll need to substitute in your own disk and partition number after the info. diskutil info disk2s2 5. Copy the Volume UUID identifier from the information listed to you clipboard or somewhere safe. 6. Now lets go back to the Extra folder on the USB drive. Using that decent text editor I mentioned earlier, you’ll need to open up com.apple.Boot.plist. 7. We are now going to tell the boot loader which disk to boot based on the disk identifier we just retrieved.

Navigate the Extensions folder within the Extra folder. Open up UUID-platform.kext in your text editor. Go to the contents folder and edit the info.plist. 10.

Start EFI studio and locate your graphics card from the drop down. For EN8400GS I had to use the 7600GS EFI string. If you have trouble locating an EFI string, just have a Google around. 5 of 21 5/8/10 5:34 PM Moz Morris » Blog Archive » Install Guide: Mac OS X Snow ... http://earthview.co.uk/2009/11/install-guide-mac-os-x-snow-leo...

After the last </sting> which should be where you entered your disk identifier, start a new line and input: <key>device-properties</key> <string>000000000000</string> 4.

Complete apple.com.Boot.plist Permissions 1. Open the Terminal and run sudo –s at which point you must enter your password. Sudo allow us to run programs with the privileges of root. 2. If you’ve followed the instructions exactly to this point, then you should be able to copy and paste the following commands. You may have decided to follow the guide slightly different up to this point. If you have, then you’ll understand what you need to change here. cd /Volumes/Snow\ Leopard\ Install\ DVD/Extra chown –R root:wheel * chmod –R 777 * If any of these throws an error then either I’m terrible at writing instructions, or you’re terrible at following instructions. No time to argue anyway, on we go.

Reboot your machine and if you’ve set your USB to priority boot the Chameleon boot loader should appear. 2. Select ‘Snow Leopard Install DVD’, which funnily enough is your USB drive and hit enter. 3. Fingers crossed within a few moments the Snow Leopard installer will appear. 4. If you get the ‘no smoking’ sign after a while then something’s gone wrong. Reboot, and at Step 2 this time, type -v before hitting enter to boot in verbose mode. This will then output an error message. From here, you’ll have to use your friend Google to help you. 5. Choose your required language. 6. Before continuing with the installation program we’re going to prepare that spare hard drive I mentioned you needed in the prerequisites. Open the Disk Utility under the Utilities menu. 7. Select the spare hard disk. 8. Select the Erase tab on the right and then set Format to Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Name the partition you’ll be creating Snow Leopard. Now click the Erase button. 9. Now exit the Disk Utility and continue with the installation 10. Choose your newly formatted disk Snow Leopard as the destination and install. The installation should take around 15minutes or so. 11. It should be noted that sometimes the installer would display an error after completion. You can ignore this. I’m sure someone out there has an answer why this happens, just Google it if you’re that bothered. 12. Reboot! First Boot 1. Leave your USB as the priority boot device as we’ll be using the chameleon boot loader installed on there to boot our Snow Leopard installation. 2. When the boot loader appears, you should see the Snow Leopard installation. Select it but don’t press enter yet. 3. Currently the boot loader is always going to look for the USB drive as the root device, remember we set this earlier when editing the apple.com.Boot.plist. We now need to tell it which device we would like to boot this time.

  • Download Mac Os Sierra Iso After Macos Sierra Disappears from the Mac App Store
    download mac os sierra iso after macOS Sierra disappears from the Mac App Store. Previously, whenever a major new version of macOS (or OS X) would launch on the Mac App Store, the previous version would still be available for download in the Purchased tab on the store. But things have changed this year. Now that macOS High Sierra has launched, its predecessor, Sierra, is nowhere to be found. It appears that updates for macOS are no longer tied to your Apple ID, which explains why Sierra and High Sierra don't show up in your Purchased tab. However, Sierra is also missing when you search for it in the Mac App Store. As Stephen Hackett of 512 Pixels notes: This means there's no easy way for someone to install macOS Sierra at this point. If your Mac came with 10.12.4 or greater, you can reinstall that version from Apple's servers, but going back from High Sierra isn't doable unless you've got a copy of Sierra laying around. As Hackett goes on to note, it's likely that at least part of this move is motivated by Apple's desire for Macs running Sierra to upgrade to High Sierra, which offers many refinements of the Sierra experience. It's also worth noting that, at least for Macs with internal SSDs, downgrading from High Sierra would be more difficult thanks to the APFS transition. Question: Q: Where can I download OSX Sierra DMG/ISO? Mac wont start! I upgraded my Macbook Pro OS to Sierra on Thursday Friday morning and its been a disaster.

  • Auf Einer Festplatte: Windows Und Macos Im Dualboot
    Auf einer Festplatte: Windows und macOS im Dualboot Diese Anleitung ist für Ozmosis geschrieben sollte aber auch mit Clover und Konsorten funktionieren was ich aber selber nicht testen konnte. Das generelle Prinzip ist auf jeden Bootloader übertragbar. Was man braucht: Eine laufende Installation von OS X auf der Festplatte für das DualbootSystem. Bei einem DualBoot System ist es wichtig, dass erst MacOS und dann erst Windows etc installiert wird. Zudem braucht man eine groß genuge Festplatte, am besten das Festplattendienstprogramm von YOSEMITE (zb von hier für ElCapitan oder von hier für Sierra ) und einen Windows 10 InstallStick (kann auch mit Boot Camp erstellt werden, indem man vorher eine Windows 10 ISO runterlädt, dann den Boot Camp Assistant startet und den Assistenten durchläuft. Dabei formatiert Bootcamp im ersten Schritt den gewählten USB Stick, dann wird Windows darauf kopiert, das ganze Bootbar gemacht und danach noch Zusatz-Treiber für MacBooks etc von Apple heruntergeladen und auf den Stick gepackt. Da du letztere Treiber nicht brauchst, kannst du einfach, wenn das herunterladen der Zusätzlichen Dateien oben in der Fortschrittsleiste von Boot Camp angezeigt wird, unten auf "Abbrechen" klicken, der Stick funktioniert dann trotzdem) Jetzt wird zur Sicherheit bitte erstmal ein Backup aller Daten gemacht denn es geht jetzt ans Formatieren wobei schon kleinste Fehler ALLES löschen können! Als nächstes geht man auf das Festplattendienstprogramm und wählt die zu partitionierende Festplatte aus. Sie hat derzeit normal nur eine Partition. Man geht auf den Tab "Partition" und schiebt jetzt einfach die bereits vorhandene Partition zusammen, sodass komplett unpartitionierter, freier Platz entsteht mit so viel Speicherplatz wie man eben für Windows haben will.

  • Guide to Fresh Installing Macos High
    9/14/2018 Guide to fresh installing macOS High Sierra on a Hackintosh (10.13 Update) - Hackintosher GUIDE TO FRESH INSTALLING MACOS HIGH SIERRA ON A HACKINTOSH (10.13 UPDATE) Guides Sticky October 5, 2017 High Sierra, How-to High Sierra is out. Now it’s time to install it on anything but a Mac. The first rig I got to run High Sierra is this cute and tiny silver build with an ASUS motherboard. High Sierra adds some pretty useful features like a log out button. The only downside I’ve noticed so far is that the screen waking can be a little slower then on Sierra. If you never built a hackintosh check out our list of compatible parts or the build list for hackintosh friendly parts. This High Sierra guide is compatible with the latest hardware from Coffee Lake all the way back to Ivy Bridge CPU’s. Right now this is just a Desktop guide I’ll be experimenting on laptops in the future and update this guide or create another when that happens. For those that already have a Hackintosh running Sierra and want to upgrade to High Sierra they’d be better served following: Updating your Hackintosh to High Sierra 10.13. If you would like to run Sierra 12.6 instead of High Sierra for reliability, compatibility or whatever reason see: Guide to installing macOS Sierra on a Hackintosh (Up to 10.12.6) https://hackintosher.com/guides/high-sierra-install-full-guide/ 1/7 9/14/2018 Guide to fresh installing macOS High Sierra on a Hackintosh (10.13 Update) - Hackintosher High Sierra Hackintosh Install Full Guide This is a full install guide that will walk you through clean installing High Sierra on a custom PC.
