Maxi King Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Hi guys, managed it to Install Mountain Lion 10.8.3 on my PC. Just had to use the flags npci=0x2000 and PCIRootUID=1. But it does not boot after the installation (same flags as above) - it gets stuck at ACPI_SMC_Platformplugin and DSMOS does not arrive (look at screenshot). I've even tried -x etc, but it didn't work out. I've also tried to wait a bit longer, but the only thing that comes up is resettingIOCatalogue. MY Config is: Asus P6T SE Nvdia GTX 660 (non Ti) i7 920 i've used ermacs Mountain Lionizer http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?depth=1&hl=en&ie=UTF8&nv=1&prev=_t&rurl=translate.google.com&sl=it&tl=en&u=http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/276216-guida-usb-mountain-lion-automatizzata/&usg=ALkJrhhCHFFr6q62fAeiRvtgKGGlEyOLAg and i've chosen the smbios macPro 4,1 (because of nehalem etc etc) Maybe someone know how to help here?

cippolippo Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 uhmmm if DSMOS does not arrive ... could be that you are missing FakeSMC.kext .... do you have that? I did not find the screen shot ... did you forget to upload it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaldMeister Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Hi, Boot the installation using the usb. Give in the following flags: -v -f The extra folder, with the needed extensions, should now load, because the kernel cache will be skipped. After succesfull boot, install FakeSMC.kext to /System/Library/Extensions, like mentioned above, it is missing. Best of luck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxi King Posted June 21, 2013 Author Share Posted June 21, 2013 Here I am again typing this from Mountain Lion 10.8.3 Solution was that there was no FakeSMC.kext on the USB Boot in Extra/Extensions. Copied it, and the system started normally! Now I can go on and continue to set up my hack. Thanks a lot for your contribution! BTW: I advise the owners of a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 to use Mountain Lion 10.8.3 + for the Installation. This Version lets your system start with npci=0x2000 (maybe you need PCIRootUID=1 , too) and it works OOB with QE/CI. Tried my first installation with ML 10.8.0 and just got stuck. Success.tiff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
