Hi there i am having problems with my hackintosh , the install succeeds i have tried the dsdt patcher gui however there was no joy it didnt boot

 

 

Instead I am trying acpi patcher beta instead , I am using a msi k9agm 3 board once i have generated the fixed dsdt.aml file does this need recompiled or do i just go ahead and copy it too extra/extensions

 

 

here is a copy of the log if anyone could give me any further pointers in the right direction

Your IASL compiler is almost 3 years old. Get a newer version here:

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=189272

Try this DSDT editor: http://www.osx86.es/?p=860

It's easy to replace the iasl binary with a later version. iasl is located somewhere inside DSDTSE.app (right click, show contents), I believe it also stores a copy in its /library/support/ folder, not sure, on Windows at the moment.

The standard fix for warning 1104 is to replace 0x0XXX with 0xFFFF. You could have found this information yourself by a quick google/forum search and/or studying the mutex method in the ACPI specs pdf.

 

The first number (4873 - 4961) is the line number where you find the code that needs to be corrected. Use the search function in your editor to jump to that line.

 

Be very careful when using "search and replace" as there might be other instances of 0x03E8 (and the others) that should not be replaced.

 

Consider that since you're on AMD hardware DSDT editing has very limited use. The majority of fixes are for the purpose of getting working native power management which is something you can never have on an AMD platform running OS X. What were you planning to do with your DSDT? Placing a DSDT.aml with compiling errors and warnings fixed will not help with anything.

Thanks for the advice i will try furrther editing the dsdt file on my netbook with snow leopard tonight.

 

 

I beleive my Kernel Panics may have something to do with the dsdt settings not being correct so by recompiling the dsdt i am hoping too acheive being able too boot into osx on my main machine

 

i will add a copy of my KP to see if you guys can shed any light to what is going wrong,

 

 

Thanks Again for your help guys Much appreciated =D
