leon321 Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I need some help about EFI string, how to edit it ? let me explain: To install SL, I used this tuto: http://www.insanelymac.com/2009/09/install...-pc-hackintosh/ Customization: All additional .kext are in /Extra/Extensions Leopard 10.5.7 works fine about video, display is recognized & I can change resolution up to 1440x900. So I put all NVDAN + NVDAResman + NVEnabler from 10.5.7 in /Extra /Extensions/ I build com.apple.Boot with EFIstudio First problem I spent some time and don’t find issue to following problem: S L don’t recognize Display and stay to 1280x1024 resolution I set in com.apple.boot.plist I tried a lot of drivers, injectors…. and I can’t change resolution. Some one told me it is a matter of EFI string ? I don’t understand anything about those strings. So if you found a good link to solve this kind of problem, let me know it (I know Google is my friend but I did not find !) Or better If someone succeed to make a GeForce 7600 GS working in SL, let me know how ? Second problem (less priority) I can’t get the right .kext to access PATA drives, if I edit AppleVIAATA working for SATA, just to add ID + VD id in the right part, I got Kernel panic at next boot.

leon321 Posted September 28, 2009 Author Share Posted September 28, 2009 Here are some news By the way I found solution to MOBO nforce .kext (problem 2) with this kext: AppleNForceATA.AnV.kext now ATA HDD and DVD are operating But problem 1 still there: I found interesting things about editing EFI strings from: http://forum.netkas.org/index.php?topic=222.0 So I put the right EFI string in com.apple.Boot.plist Now, about this MAC recognize the 7600 GS but don't see the display so display stays in default resolution. I found elsewhere that SL needs DSDT, and that it is mandatory. I found DSDTSE, that seems very powerful, but.... I am looking for the way to inject there 7600GS parameters and i really don't know how ???? any help appreciated Leon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
