Here I share my experience of installing it on Acer Aspire 1830T. Encouraged by successful installation of 10.6.2 on Vmware, I proceeded to install using iBoot and Multibeast. I installed 10.6.0 and then also 10.6.3. In both cases it installed without any problem on disk partition on external drive
. Here is the list of problems/things not working, but apparently all these relate to finding and installing right kexts (I believe
)
1. Screen resolution stays at 1024x768. I cannot manage to change it to 1366x768.
2. Wifi (airport) is not working.
3. Trackpad is not working.
4. I cannot get the system to boot despite using Multibeast. I have to use iBoot everytime.
These are the major issues. I will be grateful if someone can give me idea how to resolve these.
When I tried upgrading 10.6.0 to 10.6.4 (using combo upgrade), in the last minute the system would hang with grey screen and the ominous message to power off the computer. I tried it thrice with same result.
If OSX installs without hiccups, and it works with full functionality in Vmware, I still think that using correct drivers/extensions (kexts), fixing these issues should be the relatively easier part, though I cannot figure out how to do it.
Thanks to all for providing the resources and help.
