Ayoosh Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 So I followed the guide, used my DSDT so I did not place NullCPUPowerManagement.kext in S/L/E, and was able to boot, however I too get stuck at "Still waiting for root device". Tried deleting DSDT and used the NullCPUPowerManagement.kext, still gets stuck, same spot. I can't see how it is a chipset problem, my healthy SL drive only needs FakeSMC and an edited DSDT to work. My system specs are in my sig, what am I missing? Due I have got the same error and its irritating the hell out of me.... maybe yoiu can get past with botting With arch=i386, bit you may get stuck as many drivers require 64-bit ... like my Video Driver... it is a 64-bit driver..and them i am stuck at DSMOS has arrivedd.. any solutions???

Effendi Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Installation works flawlessly but every second app (mail, reminders, notes, ...) crashes on startup. The system is snappy as Lion and I'm writing this post in a fully functional Safari, but the crashes are strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I try to boot with 10.8 USB key it gets stacked with the following message: ACPI_SMC_PlatforPlugin::stat - waitForService(ressourceMatching(AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement) time out DSMOS has arrived And it freezes here... Do you know how to fix that? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use AHCI in bios and tried with cpus=1 npcia=0x2000 32bit or 64 bit still the same result. I also tried with Lion 10.7 USB key and I get the same error.

rucinter Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Installation works flawlessly but every second app (mail, reminders, notes, ...) crashes on startup. The system is snappy as Lion and I'm writing this post in a fully functional Safari, but the crashes are strange. This is exactly my case also, but it seems that only Apple core apps, like the one you mentioned, crashes on startup. Anyone knows what's causing this and how to fix it?

rvxtm Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Installed on my Q9400, GB Ep-45 Extreme, works perfectly, using patched DSDT and 3 kexsts, MacMan Realtek driver, FakeSMC and Alc889 enabler.

allenwkk Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Can I use this method to upgrade my existing 10.7.3 osx86 or this must be a fresh install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larx Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Works all without problems ! Speedstep works too ! P.S. It's funny to me when people hide the serial number on the Hackintosh. Sorry guys, but I had to write it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've used my existing Lion DSDT, i have a problem that although system report spots my 3 nic interfaces, non of them appear in the network system prefs. any ideas? screen shot attached Cheers Jon To answer my own question. the problem was an old version of networking kexts i was using in lion. using the latest lnx2mac realtek driver works fine now. just going through fixing CMOS reset, and need to get trim re-enabled for my thrid party drive. I've had no problems with app store or facetime logins. Cheers Jon Works all without problems ! Speedstep works too ! P.S. It's funny to me when people hide the serial number on the Hackintosh. Sorry guys, but I had to write it... You may have no problem sharing your serial number, but I do. Makes no difference if its a hack or not. ok you can generate a new one if you have to, but why bother risking that. same with system UUID.

amador Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 For the full tutorial, refer to http://thetecherra.c...tart-to-finish/. Basically, you'll be preparing your USB flash drive to install 10.8 with on your computer. It's basically the same process as with Lion, but with a few tweaks and stuff. I try to follow The tutorial..i manage to pass all the booting process but when it reach to the installation point choosing the language, it goes KP. any idea about it? thanks mate .

Ashand Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 thanks! i have installed MLION on an SSD running fast, everything is working (so far) except the network, i have copy the kexts from lion but it didn't helped, my mono is ABIT IP35 pro using Marvell chip...anyone can help me on that? or having the same mono with working kexts to share?

MuphinMan Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I can't seem to boot into the USB drive for some reason, the process goes like this: Boot into Chameleon -> type "-v" -> wall of text (too fast to read any errors) -> black screen into immediate system reboot. Is there some BIOS setting that I might be getting wrong? Am I only supposed to have a certain amount of RAM plugged in for this install? Thanks for the great guide!

rucinter Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Preview 2 install crashes right after language selection. On the exact same hardware, Preview 1 was installing fine. Though I had some problems with Apple apps (Remoider, Mail, Safari, etc) crashing on start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But thats Chameleon Bootloader problem - i used latest ML ready 1890 and even listed as ML ready it reboots if ML boot. I used 1890 ML Cham build .pkg , with DP1 i used older cham ML build which didnt reboots.

zedtechus Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 remove all of your AppleIntel graphics drivers and replace with your SL's working graphics drivers When you say replace with SL's working graphics you mean Snow Leopard (which I don't have installed obviously) or System Library? And replace theme where? put them in Extra folder? This folder is currently empty. Thanks for your help.

pawwal Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I followed this guide with two exceptions: 1. I replaced IOPCIFamily.kext with this one: http://netkas.org/?p=1072, because otherwise it was freezing "PCI configuration begin". 2. I added two kexts from my Lion installation to enable PS keyboard and mouse. Now my installation stops at Sandbox: mDNSResponder (103) deny mach-lookup com.apple.distributed_notifications@1v3 This happens on two very different machines (one of which runs Lion flawlessly). Any suggestions on how to go further with the installation process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawwal Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Now my installation stops at Sandbox: mDNSResponder (103) deny mach-lookup com.apple.distributed_notifications@1v3 Now I'm pretty sure it was an illusion. In fact it freezes on "DSMOS has arrived". Deleted all nvidia kexts and run with "-k" switch but still no go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
