2 GB Ram

Installed using Voodoo Kernal 9.5 with cpu=1 patch and Seatbelt Fix patch also with IDT Sound driver  and  all applications installed after installation follow these next steps to get the rest of your laptop running. All kext installed with Kext Helper thats included in the installation.

ATI 3200 - Got native resolution with RadeonHD.kext -edited kext to show mouse curser not garbled square - install with Kext Helper and reboot and change resolution to what ever desired- kext is included in zip

Atheros 5700 wifi - Works after installing Atheros-AR5007.pkg reboot then install IO80211Family.kext reboot
Then use Disk Utility and repair permissions and reboot.

After all that Run KisMAC trunk r319 in make sure you set this in the prefrences



and make sure the BPF Device is en0 in the advanced tab



Then click start to scan in KisMAC and it should show Wifi Networks close out of KisMAC click on the wifi icon by the clock and connect.

You must always run KisMAC after every reboot to show Wifi Networks again.

Ill go into more detail on steps to get duel boot working after the break..

Here are the files mentioned in this post that are essential to get what I mentioned above to work.

other notes

Sometimes ill get a Kernal Panic on Boot all i do is restart my laptop and it loads fine the 2nd or 3rd time.
KisMAC sometimes gets stuck after I click start to scan for networks after a reboot it works fine.
If KisMAC is still hanging or scanning and not finding anything use Disk Utility and repair the permissions on the drive where osx is installed then reboot and it should work.

If you have a better solution to the problematic wifi please leave a comment below.
