ritalou Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Hey guys, yesterday, i installed SL on my SATA drive to boot it with Chameleon. First boot in verbose gave me a Still Waiting For Root Device. So i tried to boot in 32 bits (with -x32), then i obtain a Kernel Panic. I looked in my Bios (I'm using a Asus P5K SE/EPU) but i can't activate the AHCI, there is no option for it. I tried to put Sata Configuration in Compatible, it doesn't work again. Does anyone have an idea for my problem ? Thanks and sorry for the english (i'm french ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KariNeko Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Yes, you should use the kext from here Intel ATA support for Snow Leopard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oatman Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 See I tried that from netkas and it was an EPIC FAIL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ritalou Posted August 31, 2009 Author Share Posted August 31, 2009 Yes, you should use the kext from here Intel ATA support for Snow Leopard Thanks for your answer, but I still have a KP in 32 Bits and a Still Waiting in 64. What I've done is to put the kext in de AdditionalExtension of the Extra folder, to rebuild the Extensions.mkext and to reboot. Whare's the problem ?

thenorton Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Same here. On P5K-SE/EPU, Still Waiting For Root Device... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vbxeric Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Same here.On P5K-SE/EPU, Still Waiting For Root Device... Same for me on a P5K. I found a tip on the asus forum. The Intel ATA support for Snow Leopard doesn't work for me. I've also tried to use PlatformUUID.kext and it is still the same. I uploaded a picture of my issue. Is it the same for you ?! Please need some help, how can i boot SL on my P5K. (I bought the retail DVD 29euros and received it but i can't use it..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vbxeric Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Already tried Thx but this kext isn't usefull for my P5K ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricola Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 vbxeric, from this picture your KP is from AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement "loading", you need NullCPUPowerManagement.kext to "time out" em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vbxeric Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 this is not a KP If you look the picture, you will see that SL is waiting for boot volume with uuid ............ After he says that he is waiting on <dict.......> and Jmicron is loading And finally --> still waiting for root device It means that SL cannot find the path to load the system i think....

ricola Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 The kexts were loaded .. and from where do you think the loader read the kext from? try this : - Delete AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext & AppleIntelCPUPowerManagementClient.kext - or add NullCPUPowerManagement.kext good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cool_santino Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Yes, you should use the kext from here Intel ATA support for Snow Leopard And do not forget to add you sata device(s) id(s) in plist of Netkas driver (if you have ich9) and it works without KP... for ich9 work just first 2 ports Try this one: AppleIntelPIIXATA.kext.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newwindow Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Hi, I think I'm having pretty much the same problem. When trying to boot in 32bit mode, I always get an "unknown" KP once the kexts are loaded. The last line before the panic contains "mig_table_max_displ = 73". And there's no AHCI option in my BIOS. And do not forget to add you sata device(s) id(s) in plist of Netkas driver (if you have ich9) and it works without KP... Could you tell us how exactly to do that? Where do I find these SATA device IDs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arial Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 this is not a KPIf you look the picture, you will see that SL is waiting for boot volume with uuid ............ After he says that he is waiting on <dict.......> and Jmicron is loading And finally --> still waiting for root device It means that SL cannot find the path to load the system i think.... I think so. that was my problem too. It should be "Got boot device.." if boot-uuid device found. then I added my SATA/IDE DevIDs to info.plist Netkas's AppleIntelPIIXATA.kext. Solved. If your SATA/IDE controller DevIDs already there, try another thing.. Go to BIOS Setup and set "SATA Configuration = Enhanced, S-ATA" or try other settings. Could you tell us how exactly to do that? Where do I find these SATA device IDs? use LSPCI http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=113219 http://www.mediafire.com/?znzzutj2dot or DPCIManager http://rapidshare.com/files/271683580/DPCIManager.dmg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newwindow Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Thanks a lot, I tried that. Unfortunately, I still get a "still waiting for root device". My boot.plist even contains the correct UUID. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arial Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 @vbxeric: it would be helpful if type it manually or just install LSPCI type in Terminal: lspci -nn then copy+paste here. or use OSx86Tools > View PCI Device / Vendor ID > Run LSPCI. it will generate lspci.txt onto your root volume.
