NetbookInstaller has been using Rc3 since 9 am yesterday.

EDIT: And just so you know, NetbookInstaller also uses a patched version so that you don't have to delete the dsdt to generate a new, clean one after each bios update / hardware changes.

And for those of you who want the source changes, here is the output of diff -r

I am pretty sure the last few couple of builds of NBM are using Cameleon RC3.......

Can somebody point me to a thread that explains how to update the Bios? I've googled around, but never found great instructions. I'm running whatever version came with my Vostro A90 (which is currently running Leopard 10.5.7).

Hope this helps!

Oki cool!! excellent man, I have installed it when it came out, in fact I'm using netbook installer 0.8.2 (old one, was showing pcefiv10) and I customized a couple of kext and compiled my own dsdt with all the known fixes...my mini10v is running really nice 100% working!!
Also there is still not a proper dsdt patch to get gma950 to run natively without kext, I did a couple of try but I was stuck in 800x600 without QE/CI....

Since I used your nice app hop a donation to encourage your excellent and active work!!

Does the latest NBM and NBI address the orange hard disk icon and the battery needs service issues?

[modifiedslightly]

the only download link I see on the first page is for NBM. could someone point me in the direction of NBI. or is it the link underneath meklorts profile? or am I just going blind?

[ssd]

This 0.82 final doesn't work for me.

At beginning, I got KP..then I boot to safe mode and delete dsdt file and run NBI again to regenerate it..then I can boot..but BIOS will still reset to 'enable' for USB legacy...and sleep doesn't work.

I'm having SuperTalent 32GB SSD.

[jooky]

I'm running a Win7/OSX 10.5.8 dual boot on my 10v (from Anguish's excellent guide). Can anyone provide some insight into why my flashed USB won't boot? I've followed the instructions, patched my USB with NBM from the first post, enabled legacy USB in the BIOS, but when I select boot from USB in the boot options, it just goes straight to the select-Win7-or-OSX screen. I'm runnning bios A05 if it makes a difference...

[fleebailey33]

openhaltrestart.kext for snow fixed reboot and sleep for me, just disabled the legacy again.
