Restoring from time machine
Posted by admin on Sep 30, 2009 in Uncategorized |
A successful time machine restore will still leave the Hackintosh PC dead because the MBR will be destroyed.
After the restore, use ms-sys to recreate the MBR (sudo ms-sys -m /dev/sda) and set the boot flag to the first primary partition using gparted.
Now use the installation DVD to install Chameleon so it will boot OSX.
This was successful except that the network was unavailable. I tried installing AppleBMC5751ethernet kext from my USB drive but this kept failing. Eventually, I restored the kext from the time machine backup and it was immediately detected.
