Guide for Installing Snow Leopard on the 4530s Version 3

[Dash R1H]

I don't know if everyone experiences the problem or if it's just me and the guy above but I can't boot into 10.6.8 using iBoot either never have been able to.
My recommendation would be to try and use the sl install disk to go to disk utility, click + in the partition section and install a fresh copy of osx into the 2nd partition, when you've done that go into the new install and run the necessary instructions under the boot0 error post then you'll be able to access your 10.6.8 install and if you wish to you can then choose to clone your 10.6.8 to the 2nd partition (as a backup) or go onto disk utility and remove the 2nd partition you created.

I just saw your reply , thank you for supporting , would you please tell me in detail what happened to your machine , and how you fix that ??! Another question Is that occur in lion too ?

I had the same issue as you, I had a 4k drive and got the boot0 error and could not use iBoot.
I installed lion to another partition as that was my plan anyway and I followed the instructions on the boot0 error thread.
After the boot0 error was solved I was then able to boot 10.6.8 from chimera.

Thanks Sir Dewitts , I'll try , if your solution works I'll give you a present

Hi, just to double check.

Ive got 10.6.8 installed on my laptop now, and everything is great, but HDMI does not work in OSX.

I think I read on some message that is expected , and it only works on Lion, can anyone confirm, or do I need to do some more work to get it working on my laptop. ( I have a weird bios or something, and I had to get someone to help me get all he tweaks into it )

HDMI does not work in Snow leopard, only Lion

Already working I did exactly the steps that you wrote, but I installed the DSDT twice to works well, first time with the reboot button waiting for me and the next time when I restarted, whatever, Thank you.

Well. This is awkward.

This guide didn't actually work. I followed it, but it seems not to load the installer.

Does this definitely work and maybe I have a bad disc?

Eedit- booted with iBoot legacy. So is that needed or did I just have a bad iBoot?

I did have a bad iBoot.

But wifi doesn't seem to work for me.

question...
which is more stable? snow leo or lion? :>

 

[blueking]

I like lion, but some have glitches and hate it.

Pretty sure that iBoot Legacy is the requirement for installing on all of the intel i processors.

Actually iBoot works for me.

But I'm sticking with lion. This is just for games.
