Yeah I just used EDP 1.9 on my Dell Latitude D610 with NVIDA graphics..... I can confirm that the following are working flawlessly: 1) Audio 2) Trackpad 3) Keyboard But I still can't figure out a way to get the ethernet & wireless to work. Another problem that I'm facing is that the about screen shows wrong model for the NVIDIA... not that its really a big problem but, I would want to install the correct driver for it. Any suggestions on how to get the ethernet and wireless working using EDP 1.9

Recently I went ahead and tried to install Mac OS X Lion on my Dell Latitude D620. Earlier I tried installing Snow Leopard numerous times and each time I failed. But with OS X Lion the installation started smooth and completed smoothly. Everything works absolutely flawlessy on my Dell Latitduee D620 Except for some of the drivers. 1) The Sound does not work cause there's no driver installed. 2) The Video is installed but the proper graphics card has not been (Which is NVIDIA in my case) 3) The LAN & WAN don't work (ethernet and wireless drivers are also not installed) 4) The Keyboard and Mouse/trackpad/mousepad also does not work. Currently I have to connect USB Keyboard and Mouse in order to work on my D620. I have gone through some links and see something called 'EDP', what is that exactly? Is it some kind of post-utility which will help me install the drivers or something else. OR can anyone guide me in the right directtion on how to get the above 4 things working...Please cause I'm already loving LION so very much on my notebook

What I did recently was forgot about Snow Leopard. I have a desktop on which I started the Lion Installation using the USB Pen drive.... It all worked flawlessly OS X Lion is installed and running smoothly on my desktop computer. Later I tried to boot uting the same USB Pen drive which had all the files necessary for Lion Installation, I tried the same on my Dell Latitude D620 and VIOLA it worked like a charm on the Latitude notebood as well. Currently I have OS X Lion installed on my desktop computer as well as the Dell Latitude D620 all running flawlessly. Except, There are a few issues that I am facing on my Dell D620. 1) The Ethernet does not work (I haven't installed any driver for it) 2) No Audio (Again no driver installed) 3) The Kayboard and the touchpad/trackpad/nousepad on D620 does not work. I currently have to connect a USB Keyboard and mouse in order to work in OS X Lion. Does anyone have drivers for the same or could guide me the right direction from where I could get the drivers that will work for my Dell Latitude D620

Yes I tried with your Boot.iso ... same thing happens... If I'm using the USB PEn drive to start the installation (Pen drive on which I have restored the SL installation DVD image) and same thing with the DVD as before. The system starts, the bootloader boots the system and shows me the list of partitions from which I can boot from and the moment I replace the boot CD with SL install DVD and hit F5/F10 numerous times.... nothing happens. If I connect the USB Pen drive, it gets detected and I try to start the installation through that, still the installation just doesn't start.

I have checked, checked and re-checked that the image that I am burning is not an ISO/DMG. Anyway first the bootloader didn't recognize the DVD when i replaced it and hit F5/F10... then I mounted the ISO/DMG to a USB pen drive of about 7.5 GB... The Pen Drive got recognized at the bootloader but still the installation never started. Have tried it numerous times. The DVD drive does boot with any of Bootabel DVD/CD including the Windows, Linux as well as the chameleon bootloader.

Hi! I went through the post (Howto install OSX 10.6 on a Dell Latitude D620/D820/D420/D430) at: http://www.r2x2.com/users/lsb/weblog/1b8db/ But, when I tried to follow the directions, I replace and insert the Snow Leopard Retail dvd after Chameleon has booted, It doesn't recognize the DVD no matter how many times I hit F5. I even tried restoring the DVD image to Pen Drive and then do the same. The pen drive gets recognized at the bootloader but when I select it and hit enter it takes forever and nothing loads. I tried the verbose mode, with no success. What am I doing wrong. Another thing which I wanted to ask. I even tried with other distros but without any success. I read through a lot of links and there's one option in the Dell Latitude D620 BIOS setting thats been bugging me. All links say that I have to set the SATA option to AHCI but, I don't even see that option in the Dell D620 BIOS. Is there any way that I can add that option in the BIOS by some way of tweaking. I think if I could add the option for AHCI or somehow enable it in the BIOS or even during the chameleon startup (using some command while booting the iso) then I should be able to go ahead with the installation or get some success. Please let me know or advise me what to do. I will be waiting eagerly for your response. -- Regards Alex Mathayes
