Do not use the one I posted (its for 10.5.8), use the one from post 21 in this thread its for 10.5.6 which you have:

Use the same methods as I mentioned with for the Seatbelt.kext

Hallo, I'm trying to install 10.5.6, but all the time there's a problem with SATA controller; the system turns my HDD off while booting from install-CD, then it doesn't wake it up (I can see messages: "AppleNForceATA: warning: phy connection failed"). I'm unable to install the system.

 

Will that kext be useful in such case? If so - could you, please, tell me, how to install it, when all I can do is to boot a system from install-CD? Maybe there's a possibility to mount a diskette or USB-stick, to copy the kext from it (should it be copied as archive, or unpacked first)? If so - where to copy the contents then, how to make the system using it instead of some "default" driver... and so on?

 

Sorry for such lame questions - but although I've got several years experience using Linux - never before used OSX; and now I'm just trying to install it, just to become a little familiar with OSX. But there's still the problem, that harddisk utility can't see my HDD, just because it has been turned off by OS while booting, and cannot be awaken back!

 

Could you tell me, step-by-step, what to do now?

Hi, could you help me to make this patch into the IOATAFamily 2.5.1 for Mountain Lion 10.8.2?

 

I have installed Xcode 4.6 and Command Line Tools 4.6 for Mountain Lion.

Downloaded the latest IOATAFamily source code project from the Apple source code site (http://opensource.apple.com/release/mac-os-x-1082/).

Modified all the 3100 value in 100 inside

IOATAController.cpp

But Xcode give me some errors during building:

- AspenSDK.xcconfig... it may be missing (?!?)

- Lexical or Prepocessor Issue 'IOKit/IOSyncer.h' file not found. For this issue, if I select OS X 10.8 in Build Settings/Base SDK, instead of OSX 10.8.2 (Current OSX) build go ahead but whit 15 issues (semantic, Deprecations...)

I know this is an about a year late, but I'm trying to do the same thing and got the same errors. I was able to resolve the IOSyncer.h file problem by downloading it from here https://opensource.apple.com/source/xnu/xnu-2050.48.11/iokit/IOKit/IOSyncer.h then putting that header file in the project directory, and then changing everything that says to "IOSyncer.h". I still get the AspenSDK warning though along with several other warnings. I don't think the AspenSDK warning matters because the folder that XCode looks in for it is one that only Apple employees have. It builds but it doesn't boot.

 

Edit: I got it working, I forgot to change one of the timeouts. It's posted here http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?/topic/293219-nForce-OS-X-Mavericks-(10.9)-APP-STORE-DOWNLOAD-INSTALL-GUIDE-on-a-Series-6-or-7-nForce-chipset-/-Intel-CPU-MOBO#entry2044186
