aspin Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Well, I finally got my video cards working but only after a doing a fresh install and setting up [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] Just in case it helps someone, the only way I was able to get the installer to boot was by doing -v npci=0x2000 GraphicsEnabler=No After finalizing and installing [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url], my plist is pretty much empty except from GraphicsEnabler=Yes My system specs: ASUS P6T Radean HD 5750 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobenia Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 try rboot from tonymac's or you must have a working SL or original mac. You can also try Mald0n's Hackboot Lion can't work, kernel panic with both when trying to boot into Lion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefKorns Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 can't work, kernel panic with both when trying to boot into Lion find someone with a real mac or a SL instalation. so you can create the usb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pbrena Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Hello Fabio, I got hangs or KP at booting the install USB for my p6x58-e pro. it might be a DSDT problem as I tried using it with other methods too (currently I had partial success as i lack basic funtions as LAN, Audio, etc.). Please Advice. Regards Pablo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luisfdoc1 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 DVD Drive (sata) Read Problems. I finally reinstalled Lion on its own Drive. Everything seems to work fine, and I am getting good performance. However, as I told Fabio a few days ago I have problems with my DVD Drive. Today for first day I tried to install some software via DVD and it just did not work... it shows errors like if the DVD was corrupt, also every time I burn it shows error at data validation, and the DVD drive just dies randomly (only turning off PC brings the DVD unit back). Does anybody have issues with the DVD drive? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camoguy Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 I just reinstalled with this method on my asus p6t deluxe v2 1108 bios. It was an easy and painless experience Thanks Ermac.

eway Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Hi everyone ! That's ain't funny at all, I installed Lion without any problems on my P6T deluxe V2. Usually there was always something that wasn't working, but not this time So thank U for this great job.... Just a simple question: I have 5 HD with 2 SL and Lion. Every HD with SL got chameleon installed. To avoid problems every system got his own apple.com.bootlist with UUID of each hardrive.When I start my computer from HD containing chameleon with SL I can't launch Lion, I can see it but Lion don't load ( I added the hard drive UUID into the org......plist). When I start from the hard drive containing Lion I can load everything. So, is there a difference with the bootloader embbeded with Lion (I mean the one that came with lionize) ? How can I fix this ? Thank u all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inky76 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Fabio... Thanks for all your work... I'm so glad you are such a major contributor in this scene.

Please Advice. Regards Pablo Hi Pablo! As you see in the first page your mobo is a "work in progress" Pls post here your LSPci and IOREG for your mobo (from Snow Leopard is ok too) With that info I can make a better setting for your specs..

ginkosan Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 I'm getting this KP when I try to install Lion on my Rampage III Extreme: AppleTyMCEDriver::start coreVIDPID = 0xffffffff Number of packages = 1 Number of cpus = 8 localhost kernel[0]: AppleTyMCEDriver::start memory monitor trough MCA It will go no further than that.

Fabio Ah sorry, I should've been more thorough. The KP occurs when I try step 6. I boot the USB and the installation with -v npci=0x2000 (because I got stuck at the PCI configuration thing) and then it KPs on AppleTyMCEDriver::start coreVIDPID = 0xffffffff Number of packages = 1 Number of cpus = 8 localhost kernel[0]: AppleTyMCEDriver::start memory monitor trough MCA.

Ok... So add into the org.chameleon.Boot.plist (is located into the USB /Extra/ ) the key nspci=0x2000 How you can do this?... from a old Snow system for example... And... you not need to add anymore the -v flag... Let me know. Fabio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginkosan Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 boot your USB with this kernel flags-v npci=0x2000 Hi, I've tried that and it still KP on that specific line. Could it be that my GFX is not in the first pci-e slot? or is it bios related. Im gonna troubleshoot some more after work. Thank you for your help EDIT: Well I've done some more research now and it seems to be a video card problem "AppleTyMCEDriver::start coreVIDPID = 0xfffffff Number of packages = 1 Number of cpus = 8 memory monitor trough MCA". Sadly I didn't find any solution to it. Maybe I forgot to turn of the OC on the card, maybe, can't remember. Could it be the issue? EDIT2: I got the installation to work now I re-did the USB and choose MacPro 3.1 instead of MacPro 4.1. What is the difference in those two anyway?
