Here are the steps to install 10.5.8 OSX iDeneb on an Asus 1005HA. This installation requires you to have another OSX machine and either a USB key 10gigs + (recommend 16gig) or an external DVD drive.
Pre-installaton Downloads
- iDeneb (for my installation I used 1.4 10.5.6 OSX). Recommend grabbing the latest here.(you must register to download from the site)
- ACPIFix.pkg to get around an error that freezes the loading of OSX. Get it here.
- iDeneb upgrades.
- Kext files needed to get resolution and Quartz Extreme working, audio, battery, sleep and more working. Click here.
- GernericCPUManagement app.
- Kext Helper. This is built into iDeneb in the customize package.
- Chameleon 2, should be in in the latest build of iDeneb or grab it here.
- Spark, so you can have volume control + many more features. Grab it here.

If you own FL Studio you can unlock and use versions 9 to 20. Older installers require a licensing system that is no longer online.

Install iDeneb 1.4 on your machine
(The below will assume you are booting from a USB drive)
- Boot to your USB drive by hitting ESC when bios loading screen comes up.
- Select you USB drive from the list.
- iDeneb should load Chameleon as this point.
- Once the install wizard comes up follow the steps that you would for any normal installation.
- Make sure you formatted the drive on the 1005ha. By default mine came in 4 separate partitions which I erased and reformatted into a single OSX (journaled).
- In the customize setting of the install select the following: ICHx Fixed, FireWire Remove, Video/Intel and check GMA950, Applications KextHelper, found in Applications/iDeneb/Kexthelp.app.
After 10.5.6 iDeneb has been installed
- After install hit esc and boot to the USB drive.
- Once Chameleon loads hit F8 then type the following: “rd=disk0s1 -v -f” and hit return.
- It will take a couple minutes but you should see OSX wizard for setting up your admin user account.
- After filling out the wizard install the ACPIFix.pkg.
- Once the package is installed restart the machine.
- Do not hit esc this time and allow the internal HD to boot.
- Once Chameleon loads hit “F8” then type “-v -f”.
- If all goes well at this point 10.5.6 should load with 800×600 screen res, which we will fix later.
Update 10.5.7 with iDeneb pkg
- Install the 10.5.7 upgrade from the pkg download.
- Restart once the upgraded has been installed.
Update 10.5.8 with iDeneb pkg
- Install the 10.5.8 upgrade from the pkg download.
- Restart once the upgraded has been installed.
Installing the Kext for Audio, Display, Etc
- Once 10.5.8 is successfully loaded install the kext files and packages list at the top of this post. Note all kext files must be installed using the Kext helper app or a smilar method, terminal command, or OSX86 Tools.
- Recommend installing a few at a time and then restarting to determine where an issue could be happening if anything strange happens.
- Install the GenericCPUPMControl.app and have it start at login and keep hidden (these setting are in login options). Also note that voodooPower.kext is required for this to work properly.

Finishing touches
- Get Spark.aap, it’s an app to get shortcut keys working, like for volume function keys Spark.app.
- Install about this mac. Download.
- Webcam is working. If you are having issues I recommend reinstalling some of the display kext since Quartz Extreme needs to be running.
Features I haven’t tested
Mic. Not sure if the mic is working or not.
Once wifi is up and running I will update this section and post Skype configuration. The wifi card, Atheros AR9285 that comes with the 1005ha isn’t supported yet. From what I’ve read it might possibly be supported in 10.6 Snow Leopard. I’m still waiting on my card to get here from Hong Kong and plan on doing a followup post on how to take the 1005ha apart and replace the existing wifi card with a supported card. A separate post will be on this subject in 10-15 business days.
Gesture support. I’m assuming that this will be supported by a kext at somepoint since its supported in windows.
