    zakfontaine make sure you run the script on terminal before the update, while you are on super user

    type this on terminal

    sudo root
    (and type your root password)

    if you dont have a root username and password, go to utilities and run directory utilities and create that account

    The kernel we used on this tutorial and my update tutorial is for kernel 9.2.0 speedstep, not ToH, you cand find it on iatkos 4.i under Drivers, Intel, Speedstep, you should not combine it with other kernels, just select that one

    Downloading v5i now. Is it safe to assume that the 10.5.5 kexts posted on page 37 will work for a fresh install as well?

    I know its against the rules (and i am a rule enforcer :))
    but any chance of a link? by pm preferably
    only because the only torrent I can find has 1 seed and 179 leechers

    yes, right, but maybe dont need it until one of us install it and confirm what does work, and what doesnt, then some kexts of page 37 will apply....

    As far now, OSX on AAO work really good,
    Video with external monitor (except mirroring)
    Battery recognition
    Audio out with autoswitching from mini plug or internal speakers
    Audio in from internal mic, (never tested from the miniplug in)
    Camera
    USB 2.0
    Bluetooth integration(optional) $5 usd shipped worldwide
    WIFI - Change the default Atheros minipci for a DW1390, just $20 USD shipped worldwide
    Full ISO Keyboard working
    Wired Network

    The missing stuff:
    Sleep feature, you are not missing that much, in fact I never use that feature
    Flash card reader, maybe will never work due a lack of JMICRON support. Fixable if you plug directly your camera via USB or a USB card reader,

    Conclusion we have a almost fully working cheap OSX lappy

    I have installed v5i and have all working but sound/mic.

    Installed all the kexts found on page 37 but system.kext, clamshell.kext,and SMBIOS.kext. When I installed these, I got a kernel panic... but not sure which caused it.

    As I said, no sound or microphone... anyone know what I can do?

    What happened to your installation is kernel mismatch, cause you installed the System.kext

    For audio fix just install AppleHDA.kext and HDAEnabler.kext

    I will install iAtkos v5i today, I will try to post a tutorial for it

    Installed iATKOS v5 succesfully, sleep feature seem to shutdown hard drive and DONT hangup the system, shutdown and restarts have not issues so far, the new PC_EFI v9 points that we can load custom EXT (look in here http://netkas.org/?p=74 ) on /Extra/Estensions I put some kexts there and restarted with -f flag and seems to not work, does anyone knows how to use new kext ?

    It shutdowns hard drive but not screen, maybe because I have not installed drivers for it, but it succesfully recovery from sleep, no hangs as iAtkos v4
