Installing OS X on Intel

Here is the way to install Marklar DVD on Intel machine:

1. Get Marklar DVD
2. Get Generic OSx86 Install DVD Patcher v.3 (aka “test3)
3. Convert DMG to ISO on Mac OSX as follows:
#hdiutil convert Marklar-Tiger.dmg -format UDTO -o Marklar-Tiger.iso
4. Check md5 on Mac OSX as follows:
#md5 Marklar-Tiger.iso
make sure it’s e78fe52e30a1f8c5b29d4b7932a16c5e
5. Patch the ISO image and burn into DVD
(patcher is available for other OSes too: http://www.paradogs.com/pdx_ppf3.htm)
6. Install MacOS from the DVD
Select Customize to disable Maxxus if your hardware has SSE3.
After installing boot in safe mode (-x)
7. Delete Radeon9700 kext and reboot while flushing (-f)
8. Copy AppleAC97Audio.kext from Darwin to get audio
#sudo cp -RLv <darwin ISO Mount point>/System/Library/Extensions/AppleAC97Audio.kext /System/Library/Extensions/
#cd /System/Library/Extensions/AppleAC97Audio.kext/Contents/PlugIns
#sudo kextload AppleAC97AudioIntelICH.kext

then reboot with flush again, and audio out will be visible. But there will still be no sound, as the sound is going to different speaker, so to the following step:
#sudo -s
#cd Applications/Utilities/Audio MIDI Setup.app/Contents/MacOS
#./Audio\ MIDI\ Setup

In “Audio Devices” Ac97 will be already configured. The output one in “properties for” and choose format = 4ch-16bit. Then, select “configure speakers” and replace 1 and 2 with 3 and 4.
9. Use the following kernel options at boot to get larger screen
“Graphics Mode”=”1600x1200x24″ –>works
(BTW, I think “Platform”=”x86pc” has no effect to my installation)

UPDATE: The steps for ATI related kexts removal and Ac97 kext addition (steps 7 and 8 ) are not necessary with the newer "Generic OSx86 Install DVD Patcher version Release1"
