TheTourist Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Hello forum users! I have ASUS X55VD, 210Gb HFS+ partition. Installation (from DVD) was successful, but i only can boot OS X (but touchpad don't work and also if i connect any device to USB system stucked) only with -x boot key. Loading (i tried GraphicsEnabler=No but it has no effect) stuck at this step: Which information i need to provide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogiervd Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Please list: Processor, Graphics, Touchpad, USB 3.0? If you boot with -v and no -x where do you stuck because i can't open the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTourist Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Intel Core i3-3110M, USB 3.0. Google says that touchpad is Elantech Touchpad. Graphics: Nvidia 610M and Intel Graphics 3000. I think need disable Nvidia via DSTD, because Nvidia Optimus don't work on OS X (but i don't know how). Screenshot which i provide in first post is boot log when i boot with -v key. When i boot with -x "Graphics Mode"="1366x768x32" key i setup user, time zone etc, through keyboard and bring to desktop. Also need change SMBIOS, because it set to iMac and OS X says that no keyboard found, but it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTourist Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Thank you guys. After removing GeForce kexts (from /s/l/e), installing Elan Touchpad kext and following guide by artur-pt, i can boot in normal mode. But i need change SMBIOS (currently iMac), because on my desktop appear window that says i don't connect keyboard, and i can close it (only minimize). Sound, Ethernet (Atheros, Bluetooth, Wifi (Google says:Atheros AR9285) don't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sound, Ethernet (Atheros, Bluetooth, Wifi (Google says:Atheros AR9285) don't work. The best way in my opinion is by downloading Chameleon Wizard and go to the SmBios tab. Sound i would probably try some VoodooHDA kexts. WiFi: http://www.osx86.net/view/2471-atheros_ar9285.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTourist Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 ar9485 - wifi ar8161 - ethernet /Extra doesn't exist Now i create DarwinDumper log.

Rogiervd Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Do you have a dual boot? http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/304666-30-reboot-select-proper-boot-device-error-problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTourist Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 No, i don't have dualboot. I have only OS X. HDD is GPT partioned. Maybe delete EFI partition and recreate it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iFIRE Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 no, try this for format your EFI: diskutil eraseVolume "HFS+" "EFI" /dev/disk0s1 now install boot loader for your EFI Particion, then copy your Extra too for EFI , if you have boot 0 error try this: ok, this is the second option for install it, download binarios chameleon folder i386 1. open the folder i386 and copy boot1h for your USBInstaller. 2. boot from USBinstaller and go for utilities and open app Terminal 3. type diskutil list for identified your disk and partition were you installed of system ML = "(i.e: disk0s2)" 4. type diskutil unmount disk0s2 5. type cd / 6. type dd if=boot1h of=/dev/disk0s2 bs=4096 7. reboot in steep 6 put your disk and partition "(i.e disk0s2 "), see your Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTourist Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 iFIRE, Here my partition layout before eraseVolume (my EFI on disk0s2): And before eraseVolume: And from GParted: Maybe remove all partitions, and recreate EFI and reinstall OS X? I also make backup of system partitions using dd (diskdump). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iFIRE Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 in your above post you say: No, i don't have dualboot. I have only OS X. HDD is GPT partioned. but in this photo you have windows installed, if you need dual boot in the same disk try this: 1. Use Gparted and make two Partitions FAT32 2. IN the first Partition Install WIN, when you try for install win format the disk with windows installer for NTFS 3. in the second Partition Install Mac OS X , but when you go install Mac OS, boot with the installer you need open Utilities/DiskUtility and format the Partition for HFS+ , then install 4. Boot your install MAC OS and when you in the desktop install boot loader for your Partition MAC OS 5. Good Look!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTourist Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 It's just a factory testing Windows 8 partition, which don't have loader. So i can't boot it and i don't need that partition. Now i remove all partitions and make 200 mb EFI partition and 200 Gb OS X partition. Installer loaded only with "Graphics Mode"="1366x768x32" parameters.

TheTourist Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 Installed 10.8.2 ML from DVD. Addition install next kexts: Voodoo HDA, Elan TouchPad, Intel HD 4000. Removed all GeForce kexts. Perform install of Chameleon 2.1 from PKG - after reboot, bios don't recognize any boot media except DVD. Perform install of Chameleon 2.1 to EFI partition - after reboot, bios don't recognize any boot media except DVD. If eject DVD, message will be: Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media .... I don't know what is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
