No he's right. The script uses the same file name in order to replace the input file by the output file. How dare you doubt Master Netkas!   |

So, how do I get my 6870 working? I thought something would be posted that I have to download?? I'm kind of new with this, so I feel like a noob here looking around for some kind of file to download.

BTW, this hack is posted on Macbidouille, so expect more testers.
EDIT: oops. Made a mistake in the guide. Don't jump straight to step 5. You still need step 4 (pithon script).

So what rom do we use or are there any efi + bios ones already made for the 6870? I'm not really seeing much in the way of links (though it is only 7am here). I'd love to upgrade this 5770 I got to something better (especially for the 160-180 the 6870's are going for). The other thing is what brands/card #'s have the best success for flashing?
Your own one and the one in netkas´ post. |

Just checked, lspci shows: LnkSta: Speed 5GT/s, Width x16
so, whatever sysprofiler says, its 5GT/s not 2.5

Maybe a stupid question but what is the command to flash to modified ROM back, I assume I boot back into DOS and use the amdflash command.... |

So does this work with any 6870 card then? can you use the 2GB models or stick with 1GB?

also included smaller, efi-only roms for 6870 and 6850, you need to inject them to your bios dump before using.
As a result please provide sshot of system profiler with graphics section.
what's new in these rome vs. the one you had me flash yesterday? |

If Apple doesnt change the way they make their ROMs, then yes.
