Hi.

 

Have installed Lion GM using the 'easy' to use guide stickied in this forum.

 

Only problem I appear to have so far is internal hard drives are displaying as external drives.

 

I assume this requires a kext to fix - any ideas?

 

Thanks.

You don't need a kext to solve the orange icon issue. You can do it via a device-id in your DSDT. I have a a Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3R with ICH10R south bridge. Here is my SATA device. The _DSM method is key

 

Device (SATA)
		{
			Name (_ADR, 0x001F0002)
			Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
			{
				Store (Package (0x02)
					{
						"device-id", 
						Buffer (0x04)
						{
							0x81, 0x26, 0x00, 0x00
						}
					}, Local0)
				DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
				Return (Local0)
			}
		}

this may produce errors, i for once can't use it, cause when i do i get hard disk errors with Logic Pro,

also others reported errors. best way is this dummy kext. it just i plist injection, nothing more

On Lion final, I have a strange issue. I'm currently running it from an USB drive, to ensure everything works fine. The only problem I have is the drive icons. They are fine in a Finder window on the left side after installing AHCIPortInjector. But they are wrong on the desktop. All drives (internal and USB ones) are displayed as folders. Same in Disk Utility. The partitions appear as folders. I'm using a GA-EP45-DS4 mb with an auto-generated DSDT. Is there something I can do on Lion to fix this?

on system profiler under Serial-ATA what controller do you see?

Intel ICH9/10? Unknown controller?

As everything else was working fine from the USB drive, I finally decided to upgrade my internal drive. The icon problem does not occur when running on that drive. Just need to install AHCI injector (or change DSDT I suppose).
