Mohnox Lipton Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Hi guys! Yesterday I installed my first Snow Leopard 10.6.4 hackintosh using [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]+[url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] method. Everything was working fine after booting the system, i have even done several successfull reboots until the system accidently froze(i was running Firefox when it happened). After that It doesn't boot even with [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] CD. I discovered(using -v) that all the time the boot process freezes at replay_journal. Does anyone have some clues what the problem might be? Thanks in advance. My configuration is: ASUS P5Q3 Deluxe/WiFi-ap @n Core2Quad Q9550 (was recognized by the system as a "Quad-Core XEON"(?)) NVIDIA GTX280 4GB RAM 1TB HDD I installed using patched DSDT, additional kexts: skge.kext(for network card), openhaltrestart.kext Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medorpg Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 I think this is caused by kext ( removed or added ) try to reinstall or try to figure out which kext that causing the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After some investigation i've come to an interesting discovery: i wanted to check my hard drive for bad blocks using a low-level utility called MHDD as I thought it was causing the problem. For safety i disconnected 2 other hard drives from the mainboard and after that tried booting once again...and it was successful! That's really strange, my system is booting again... What the problem might be? 1st 200GB HDD had 1 partition with NTFS which was read successfully by OSX, the second one(500GB) contained a linux boot partition and another one with LVM.
