Gordo, just to confirm... I can run Multibeast and select MacMini5_1 and my system, as it stands, should not change. I will not have to reinstall all my programs? Thanks

Thanks. I shall that ASAP. Cheers

Hi Scuba Very interesting. I have two identical Samsung LCD's and will compare as soon as I get hte dual monitors running. Do you know if a kext exists or do I need to reconfiure the machine as MacMini5.1? Cheers

I concur with minihack. I am running a macpro3.1 def and getting great results from my HD3000. ( The def was default when I MultiBeasted. I forgot to check the Mac Mini one.) It works fine -the HD3000 part - but having said that I am having trouble running dual monitors, a HDMI and VGA. They...

Good luck.Just follow jwk's instructions and you should be sorted. Cheers

Strange, I flashed F3 with no issues albeit before I installed Lion. Perhaps thats the issue though I am not sure. My HDMI doesn't work on my MacPro3.1 setting. On an earlier insatall I MultiBeasted it as a Macmini config but got kernel panics on re-boot so I stuck with macpro as it is...

Hi Spiiina Thanks for your input and glad that it worked for you. Do SSD's have the same 4K sector issues as do the AF drives? I'd be interested to know as I am considering one. Cheers

Hi All, I have just finished my first build based on this MB. It went great apart from an issue relating to my HD. See here http://www.tonymacx86.com/viewtopic.php ... 37#p337437 I am using BIOS ver F3. This MB is great for an itx system but is limited by it's two SATA ports and their 3gb/s...

Hi jwk. Success... (Don't know why it feels like a mega victory!) It turns out that all I had to do after manually installing boot1h with your method was to run MultiBeast again ( In my case I checked Chimera) in order to re instate OSX partiition as active or get it to boot to the hsf drive...

Hi all, I have just been at hacking at my first build for two weeks, productivity wise, well beyond the advantage of a Hackintosh over a real Mac! But the fun was immesurable. Firstly I need to thank all the awesome contributors out there who have been so generous with their knowledge and...

I agree with your last quote...don't go there for a dual boot, i succeeded in completly messing up my whole installation! I followed: http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2010/01/ ... eleon.html to the T until I got to the com.apple.boot.plist, it wasn't there, only a org.multibeast.plist, which I...

Hi, What exactly freezes? Make sure your BIOS settings are correct and that you are using your DVI graphics port if you are using Intel 3000 graphics. Good luck!

I'd just like to thank you for your kind assistance and generosity of knowledge. This was also my first mac experience, other than tinkling on a friends machine and using my iPad. I am pretty well versed in DOS and have built countless PC's in my time, but this offers new challenges. The...

jwk, thanks, finally a result! Update: A bit of perspective first: A week ago I started the whole this whole build and installation from and following the post you recommended - Dual Boot Windows 7 and OS XX Snow Leopard Using Chameleon: http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2009/11/ ... -snow.html...

Well, sadly it did not work. I tried your method, MacMans and even the Ubuntu technique from the site I quoted. I do suspect that it has something to do with my dual boot - that the HD is partitioned in two and Windows makes its partition active thus forcing the BIOS to boot into that partition...

Thank you jwk - I bow to your superior knowledge... I shall try your method right away as I installed Lion in the same manner as you. Two diffs though: 1) I ended up with a MacPro3,1 - It's stable and works. (Any advantage of MacMini?) 2) I prepped the HD for dual boot with OSX and Win7 - Will...

Thanks, kudos MacMan thanks for all your help. Yes, on this post: http://forge.voodooprojects.org/p/chameleon/issues/129/ (worth a read) one of the authors seems to suggest that the drive needs to be unmounted first and, the boot1h file should come from the extracted package, not the one on the...

Hi all. I'm not 100% sure that I understand these issues but I am having extreme difficulty booting from my HDD after a successfull 10.7.3 and Win7 install on the same drive. I trawled this forum and tried every solution on offer - well apart from getting into complex coding and commands. I...

Thanks all. I suspected as much. So I presume that the best way for a clean Lion install would be to get a USB drive formatted on a Mac, download Lion on the same Mac then install on my new rig using Unibeast, as per the excellent tuts?

Hi all, Probably a really dumb-ass noob question but the more I search the forum the more I doubt my understanding of this... I am attempting a minimac build (H61N-usb3 - i3 2505 -Corsair 8gig - 1Tb HDD etc.) System built and ready to fire so I am researching the OS installation: 1. Can I...
