SnowyWindOSX from Flash Drive

Another way to Install SnowyWindOSX Final with a USB Flash Drive

You will need this:
1. USB Flash Drive 8 Gb or more
2. Your laptop :)
3. Mac or Hackintosh with Disk Utility (to create bootable Flash Drive)
4. SnowyWindOSX.iso you can get here Demonoid, russian torrent or Megaupload

Installation Process
Making the bootable Flash Drive
1. Mount the SnowyWindOSX.iso.
2. Insert an 8gb or bigger flash drive.
3. Open Disk Utility.
4. Click on your Flash drive listed on the left side.
5. Click the Restore tab.
6. Drag/drop the mounted flash drive to the Destination field.
7. Drag/drop the mounted SnowyWindOSX, to the Source field.
8. Make sure the Erase Destination box is selected.
9. Click Restore.
10. After it finishes, install Chameleon 2 RC4 to the flash drive.

Getting your Wind Mac
11. Put the flash drive in one of the USB ports.
12. Power on your MSi Wind/Wind Clone and tap F11.
13. At boot menu choose your flash drive.
14. Once booted to the installer go through the normal prompts.
15. If you need to, set up your partitions in Disk Utility, which can be accessed under Utilities on the menubar. Bare in mind that if you want EFI booting you will need to choose GPT(GUID) partition scheme.
16. Choose the partition you want to install to.
17. Click install.
18. After the install Finishes reboot.

First boot of your Mac
19. The first boot will be slow. It has things to do. Once it is booted go through the prompts for setup as normal.
20. Once at the desktop go back into the SnowyWindOSX disk and open the Optional Installs folder. If you are on MBR open the MBR USERS folder and install the MBR.pkg. If you are on GUID open the BUID USERS folder and install the GPT.pkg. These packages take quite a while to run(5 minutes or so). These packages perform a cleanup that won't work from within the installer.
NOTE: Notice in each of those folders is an Update program. The version for GUID users is well known at this point. The one for MBR offers the same functions. Easy access to the Extra folder without the Terminal work, and easily patching graphics for system updates.
21. After installing either the MBR.pkg or the GPT.pkg you need to reboot, so that the system will be clean. bear in mind that this boot may be slower, because of the work that the packages did, but its ok.
22. Everything DONE. Congratulation, you have your new Wind Snow Leopard Mac!

Post Installation:
- Adjust your touchpad settings in System Preferences to your liking
- Sleep on lid close will not be working out of the box with SnowyWindOSX. You must use one of two methods to get it working- DSDT patching or ClamshellDisplay.kext. You can learn how to use both of these methods in the Mac OS X section of the InsanelyWind forum.
