sunset1430 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Greetings I am having issues with a Asus Z9PE-D8. I have followed instructions from multiple sources. I have removed all third party items. The system consists of Asus Z9PE-D8 with two Intel Xeon 2660 CPUs. I have an Apple firmware Radeon card from a MacPro. I also have an Nvidia GTX560 Ti around if needed. But both have given me similar issues. I have a serial ATA drive. I have done the usuall troubleshooting npci=0x2000 0x3000 rootID etc. I have tried pretty much everything on chamelon wizard, etc. I always seem to get stuck at PCI Configuration begin or a white screen. I did a Mountain Lion to boot once but only worked with remote desktop. I have installed the OS using a Mac, then run post installer such as pandora on that disk. I have tried pandora [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] etc. I can't seem to find the right combo of settings. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunset1430 Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 I can work through this. With mountain lion 10.8.3 I got it to boot with [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]. But no video. I could remote desktop into the machine as the system had remote management enabled. I don't remember my settings though. I looked at this thread recently but cannot recreate like he did. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295055-asus-z9pe-ws-d8-mavericks-working-1091/ Do you guys have any ideas how I should configure for first run. I am little concerned this has to do with the speed stepping tech on the motherboard. -v cpus=1 npci=0x2000 did not work. Stops at PCI configuration begin. then shuts down. before shutdown ACPI: sleep states S3 S4 S5 pci (build 22:16:20 sep 19) , flags 0x600008 pmf64 (44 cpu) 0xfff800000000000 etc If i use onboard VGA it boots al the way to missing bluetooth etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drnoodle Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Please install OSX with onboard VGA only! Replace the mach_kernel -> http://www.osx86.net/files/download/...idge-e-kernel Now it will boot with onboard vga and you can install 10.9.1 I cant install a Nvidia card... i am trying to fix this atm.

sunset1430 Posted January 16, 2014 Author Share Posted January 16, 2014 How do I replace the kernal? Yeah I can't get Nvidia or ATI to work. I have 10.9.1 running without the modified kernal... I have a working system with 10.9.1 and graphics. no power management doh. I will post my exact info by the end of the day. Now i need to dig in and get everything really working. Ethernet etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drnoodle Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Ok... you only need the kernel if you use a V2 ivybridge cpu. I dont know how to fix the nvidia card problem either. I can only boot with onboard vga only. If someone knows how to install an ati or nvidia card.... Ok... you only need the kernel if you use a V2 ivybridge cpu.
