    Not to be a nag, but any update on the v5i installation info? I'm getting impatient waiting to get this thing up and running... :)

    iATKOS v4i doesn't work...

    Hello everyone.

    I'm in a desperate situation :(

    I have recently bought the Aspire One A150L (120gb HD, 1gb RAM) and I took advantage of this great tutorial for the installation of iATKOS v4i.
    I did everything as told (step A & B), rebooted and everything seemed fine. Then I turned off the computer so that I install the .kext's later.
    From that point, everytime I reboot, for some seconds everything works fine but then I get a blue screen saying "You need to restart your computer etc".

    Am I the only one that didn't make it?
    Please help...

    P.S. I could also try the iATKOS v5 & see what happens, but anyway help needed... thank you in advance...


    UPDATE ************************************************************************

    I have installed the iATKOS v5 and it works fine!!!

    My problems:
    --- The AA1 cannot boot by itself to MacOSX, I always have to write "cpus=1"

    i have a dell dw1350 (broadcom) card laying around. Will it work in place of the DW1390? I did a google search and found some info on insanelymac where someone used it in a IBM T40 and it was detected as apple airport and worked fine. Just wondering if anyone had tried to use it in the aspire yet? It would be sweet to just use what I have rather than having to order one and wait for it to arrive. Any help is appreciated.

    Use this guide:
    viewtopic.php?f=14&t=9047

    ...to put iATKOS v5i 10.5.5 onto a thumb drive.

    Then follow one of the iATKOS v5 installation guides on this page. (Might work the same if you use v4i, but I have tried it using the USB method)
