rockinron_1 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 When the boot loader first comes up with os x selected (possibly timing out until it boots) press a key to stop the timeout then type -v screenshot that and post it here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadycupcakes Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 I can't seem to get it to stop and let me type in -v, I'm going to make a video showing you guys how it boots etc. and maybe that will help you guys more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadycupcakes Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 Ok, I booted into -v and this is what it got hung up on. So I figured out that my bios was set on IDE instead of ahci so I fixed that it got past the boot then it comes to a screen that says your computer needs to be restarted hold power button etc. I ran -v again and it ran through everything and it got stuck on a grey screen after listing everything. What is the problem now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockinron_1 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Remove one of the 480's. Boot with GraphicsEnabler=yes. Doe your mouse work at that grey screen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxic Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 You need a USB keyboard and mouse for the setup. Once at your desktop you can install kexts for your PS2 devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxic Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Post your console log. You may need to edit your DSDT to enable sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
