I am new to the os x86 world and have tried to install Snow Leopard 10.6 with the 10.6.1-10.6.2 update by HazzarD and used the following tutorial. My system specs are as follows:

 

q9650, Asus Maximus Formula II, EVGA GTX 260 SC, 4gb 1066mhz Corsair Dominator, Seagate 500gb SATA HDD, Sony DRU-V200A DVD-RW IDE, Supreme Fx X-Fi soundcard.

 

I am able to proceed through the installation up to the point where the comp restarts itself. From here it goes to an apple logo screen for about 10 seconds and then turns grey and gives me a message saying "You must restart your computer..."

 

I made the following selections before installing onto my comp, the thread starter mentioned to use the bare minimum and get the remainders later:

10.6.2 update combo

Chameleon RC3 10.5

Rosetta

AHCI SATA Fix

 

Any ideas as to what I am doing incorrect? Should I find another OS X? Thanks in advance.

How do I delete it from within the terminal? Do I just type that file and hit enter? That said wrong directory? Also I am to do this BEFORE the install correct? If not then how do I access the terminal from the bootloader? Thanks

sudo rm /System/Library/Extensions/AppleTyMCEDriver.kext

 

you may need to specfiy your partion

if you have one HDD and first partion contain mac setup

you will use this

sudo rm hd(0,1)/System/Library/Extensions/AppleTyMCEDriver.kext

Yeah I have only one HDD and I partitioned the entire thing for my OS X install. When I type either of the above I get an error. For the first it says sudo:command not found. For the second it says syntax error unexpected token. How do I know it gets deleted, does it say?

Now I have a wierd answer, apparently that last command was the one, but it says no such file or directory found. Any clues? I am supposed to be doing this BEFORE the install correct? If not then how do I access this after I run into that error? Thank you

 

 

EDIT: Also I took it a step further and typed in rm /Volumes/HackPro/System/Library/Extensions/AppleTyMCEDriver.kext which also gives me such no file found. I guess I have answered my own question as to delete it before or after the install. How do I access the terminal from the boot loader? Thanks

Yet again I get the message that this is not a file or directory. When I include the volumes portion however it just tells me it is a directory. I am totally lost now. Thanks.

So now a really wierd thing happened. I type in -x -f in the bootloader prompt and voila it works! Thanks again!

So you're saying that the -x -f command is safe mode? So now since I am in the actual OS I can just go to the extensions folder and delete that specific AppleTyMCEDriver kext correct? Also how do I load new kexts on? I forgot to load the LAN and audio kext for my mobo during installation. Thanks again.

So I tried deleting it from the terminal using two different commands.

 

sudo kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/AppleTyMCEDriver.kext which said I needed permission, but will not let me type my password for some reason. I even tried typing it else where and copy and paste but nothing.

 

I then tried rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleTyMCEDriver.kext which sent a lot of lines across the terminal window and ended saying permission denied.

 

Is there something in OSX86Tools I can use? I guess it came with the SL install.

 

The hardware I am searching for is the LAN and audio. I believe my LAN is marvell yukon 88e8056 and my audio is a sound card labeled Supreme FX X-Fi it came with my maximus formula II mobo. Thanks.

EDIT: That pesky kext is gone and I am able to boot directly into SL!
