@pcwiz:

To the X1600 package: I don't see a difference between the NatitX1600 (from you) and ATIinject drivers, only that Natit recognizes my card as X1600 Pro, ATIinject as X1650. But this is an ATI renaming issue. Natit is 3 days newer than ATIinject, but the graphics drivers you gave me are older and have a lower version number.

The same is for the 0x71c2 ID package: The drivers are much older. I don't think they will work with 10.5.5.

Do you want to have my drivers? At least they are newer.

1) Rerar and reupload the ISO (may delay beta by 2 days)
2) Make a PPF to patch the original uploaded ISO (will waste bandwith)

I most likely will go with the second option if the PPF is an acceptable size, but if the PPF ends up being more than 400MB or so then I have no choice but to redo it. Like I said at worst it will be delayed by 2 days or so. I sincerely apologize but this is my first attempt with an ISO and sometimes things do go wrong

And yes I realize that I've stalled this for some time now :P But I don't drop out on promises and THIS WILL BE REALITY!!!

Thanks for your work.
If it helps, I am building all my iso images with Toast 9, creating a disk image and changing .toast extension to .iso

Indeed - I'm delaying my hardware build for this. You're doing everyone a great service, and are to be congratulated.

Here's an idea for the future - what if, instead of a huge, arcane list of drivers, you were to enlist the help of the various people who've put together hardware support databases, and made the install options break down by motherboard? That way, a user could just tick one checkbox for his mobo, and get all the patches and kexts known to be needed to make it work. AFAIK, no OSx86 distro does this. It could be major. Yours could be not only the most vanilla, with the broadest support, but also the easiest to use, and hence the most Apple-like.

Just a thought.

Hello, I have a AMD x2 4200+ with a gigabyte mainboard with chipset 770 (AM2+). Could I be a tester? Thank you.
