DSDT install for enable 8 Cores & HT ..Oh yes..so simple

 

1) Create a folder and name it: DSDT_Patcher1

2) Take "DSDT_Patcher1.0.1e.zip" and extract the contents to your OSX desktop in folder named "DSDT_Patcher1(there are 3 files)

3) Open up the DSDT patcher GUI folder and go to the tools folder. Run the bootloader installer pkg.

6) In nano modify the patched dsdt to delete all lines that start with Alias(just delete these lines with your keyboard)

 

7) Press Ctrl+O (that's the letter "o") and [ENTER] to save the file, then press Ctrl+X to close nano.

 

8) (right click on the terminal >(new basic)In terminal again type:

9) Run the patcher again, you will get 3 errors about files not existing or already existing, that's fine, don't worry about it

I downloaded iDeneb v1.4 10.5.6, it works for our board, only issue im stuck with is the slow SATA access. Also the Kernel Panic shutting down and restarting. I will give the one you suggested a try and see if that gives better result.

The guide is only for iDeneb 10.5.5. and gives top results. Check the geekbench and you will understand...http://browse.geekbench.ca/geekbench2/view/129119

Sweet iDeneb 1.3 did the job. I'm not having the issue with slow SATA access. Now my Audio is not working and all my Hard Drives icons are Orange not the regular Metalic looking ones. Did you have to manually fix that? or did I miss to select few kext from the Install? Also I was curious if you tried updating to 10.5.6? Any sort of input on how to fix the issue mentioned is greatly appreciated.

Try looking for the sata a kext for ""ich10"".About the audio i dont know.Just search.For the update i dont get to trouble cause its a mystirious operation..and smt it gets panic..so i let it ...wait to release ""snow"" so to experiment with that...It will be far ahead the software for our hackintosh so dont get in bother..Just love your new hack and wait a litle bit to enjoy ""Snow"" with full cores memory fsb and overclocking..Im waiting for a mac case to put the hardware inside...beautiful..

Great work thanks for this walkthrough! I am running 10.5.7 vanilla (combo updated from iPC 10.5.6 voodoo) on an ASUS Rampage II Gene and found your guide the most accurate and useful. I haven't been able to find any other users running OSX86 on this board so maybe I am the first!!?

  1. I still have no sound. Had to disable/remove AppleHDA.kext to avoid panics. I tried AD8888.pkg during iPC setup but no luck.
  2. I get AppleIntelCPUPowermanagement panics when booting with 2-4 cores or Hyperthreading enabled still...

I have yet to try your DSDT method trick. Can you please elaborate? I'm a just a bit wary, it took a few days to get this running but hooray it's my first hackintosh!

I've followed all the instructions exactly as stated above and everything went well until I enabled hyperthreading and all cores. Then it gets stuck at the OSX loading screen (I waiting for at least 3 hours one time). I can switch off of hyperthreading and change back to a single core and it works but obviously that is not the desired result. Any ideas? I haven't been able to get the sound working yet either, maybe you have some ideas there?

Mi equipo: ASUS P6T WSIntel Core i7 920Nvidia Quadro FX 3700 512 x2AD SoundMax 2000BRealtek (No se que modelo)Snow Version: Retail 10432Lo conseguí probando con todo tipo de guías. Y lo logré de esta forma. Me funciona todo (audio, red, graficos etc) Para la tarjeta grafica, lo mejor es buscar la tuya en Aquamac y seguir sus instrucciones para incluir el string correcto de tu tarjeta en apple.Boot.plist. Mi experiencia es que el sistema, con cualquier guia se instala bastante bien y no necesita tantos arreglos como parece. El problema de los KP de arranque es cosa de Chameleon 2. Lo primero, desde Leoopard 10.5 se instalan los kexts necesarios para cada hardware (y los que habitualmente se exponen en las guias) en System/Library/Extensions ya que no existe aun /Extra, así como una copia del DSDT.aml que tienes en Leopard 10.5 Hay gente que dice que no es necesario (el DSDT.aml), pero para mi si lo fue y si no lo tienes en el L 10.5, es necesario crearlo (google). Para el primer arranque, desde Leopard 10.5 es necesario instalar en SL el bootloader2.dmg (google). Aunque instala /Extra, realmente esa carpeta no será necesaria luego y la podremos borrar. Los ajustes del apple.boot.plist de /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration tambien conviene hacerlos antes de arrancar snow, desde Leopard. Ahí es recomendable incluir unos segundos (5 o 6) en el key Flag para que de tiempo a escribir en darwin en el arranque. Para que no de KP, el disco de arranque 1º en la bios debe ser el de SL y no el de Leopard. Se arranca con -x64 -v en darwin. No KP. Una vez dentro de snow, rapidamente (lo mas rapido que uno pueda) hay que abrir Preferencias de Spotlight y añadir todos los discos conectados al ordenador para que NO los indexe. A veces no da tiempo mas que a añadir uno o dos (si se tienen más) y se cuelga con la pantalla gris y te obliga a reiniciar con el botón del PC. No pasa nada. Se reinicia de nuevo con -x64 -v y otra vez rapidito, a terminar de desindexar los discos que no nos dio tiempo antes. Una vez desindexados todos de Spootlight, ya no se cuelga y podemos terminar la instalación tranquilos. Lo primero que hay que hacer ahora es correr la aplicación Kext Utility 2.3.2 (google) Dejarla hasta que acabe todo el proceso de ordenar y reparar la carpeta Extensions y el Extensions.mkext lo que viene siendo unos dos o tres minutos. Una vez hecho esto, hay que reinstalar el paquete BSD.pkg de la imagen de instalacion de SL para que nos deje reparar permisos desde Utilidad de Discos. Desde el disco de Leopard 10.5 copias el dmg del retail de SL al escritorio de SL. Montamos la imagen (si se cuelga hay que recurrir al viejo fix de seatbelt.kext que en SL tambien funciona (así como el fix "About This Mac.pkg" dicho sea de paso). Una vez montada la imagen, hacemos clic dentro de la carpeta donde se aloja. Shift+Cmd+G y se abre "Ir" Escribimos la siguiente ruta /Volumes/Mac OS X Install DVD/System/Installation/Packages, buscamos el BSD.pkg y lo instalamos (aunque te da la opcion de elegir carpeta, no hay que hacer nada, se instala donde debe por defecto). Cuando acabe, hay que ir a Utilidad de discos y reparar los permisos. Conviene reiniciar aquí. Al llegar otra vez a SL, ya le puedes decir a Spotlight que indexe los discos (tarda bastante), despues (o antes, eso da igual creo) ya se puede instalar Chameleon 2. Primero RC1 y después RC2. Y ya está. Espero que les funcione como ami. Suerte.

hmmmm.... i have had my computer guy (professional IT) try to install mac on my machine for literally the past 3 weeks or so. okay, so of those weeks he was on vacation... regardless, he keeps having problems. i have basically the exact same specs on my machine as you have on yours. i have no idea how all of yall loaded this and it worked. he says he has followed the instructions and he's also read many other sites, but to no avail. i'm so bummed. if anyone has any advice or if you live in the austin texas area let me know :angel: it's depressing knowing i can do this, but it just isn't working for my machine. i have the computer guy's detailed list of what he's done as well. thanks

wow great geekbench score mate!i'm only getting 7150 ..a few questions i have to your setup:could you be a bit more specific about components...did you overclock your cpu? which cooling are you using? could you tell me exactly the components (ram eg). i wanna build the exact setup that you have... geekbench displays 8 cores. i assume it only has 4 cores and diplays as 8 because of hyperthreading right?i need a machine for rendering 3d stuff on osx. i just worked on the new mac pro with 2,23ghz which also reached 12000
