NotSteve Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Hey, I believe this is the right place to post this. I'm having a lot of troubles installing OSX on my Thinkpad T410. Every way of installing I try results in errors. Most of the time the error is "DSMOS has arrived". Sometimes it then changes to a whitescreen with line scrolling down. Images: I'm pretty sure it has something to do with my GPU. I managed to install Niresh once using the bootflag "GraphicsEnabler=Yes" but I wasn't able to boot after that and the flag never worked again. Not really sure what happened with that. I have tried using myHack, Uni\Beast and iAtkos, all of them result in the same thing. Any help with this would be great, thanks. Specs of laptop: CPU: i5-540M GPU: Either NVS 3100M or Intel HD 5700MHD. At first I thought it was the Intel but i'm starting to think otherwise. I have no real way of checking at the moment as there is no OS installed on the laptop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcai777 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Are you installing trying to install OS X or boot OS X after installing? Even if you had the nVidia card, you would not be able to use it most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotSteve Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 I did install it once but it doesn't work. I get "DSMOS has arrived" just like the installer. I'm not really sure how the installer worked the one time, I guess it was just kind of random but it hasn't worked since. So basically, both the installer and the actual OS get DSMOS has arrived no matter what I try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotSteve Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 Ok, used a linux live cd to check the GPU and it's intel. I tried removing the kexts and using that bootflag but now i'm getting a kernel panic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
