Flybye Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Hi all. So here is my issue.10.9.5 installs perfectly fine. If I boot from the USB, I can select the 10.9.5 hd and boot up 10.9.5. If I boot up directly from the hd, I only get a cursor on the top left corner of the screen. When I am inside 10.9.5, if I install Chimera, booting up from the hd takes me as far as "Missing Bluetooth Controller Transport!" Once at that point, -x and a variety of other fixes including deleting the AppleIntelHD stuff do not work, and I end up having to delete the partition and starting all over again. I have no clue how to modify any of these bootup configuration files when I cant even start up 10.9.5. I am sure it is some basic setting in the config file of the USB drive, but what I dont know is how to copy that whatever file to the hd.My specs:MB: Asus P5G41T-M LXIntel E2200 2.4ghz core 2 duoNvidia 8600GT8GB of Ram80GB hard drive.

Onixs Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Are you using the DVI port of that 8600? iirc, i used to have NVCAP for the DVI port Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flybye Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 My 8600 has 2 DVI ports and one s-video port. I have 2 monitors so both DVIs are connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onixs Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 what's device id of 8600 and bootloader? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flybye Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 8600= 0x0402 How do I get it for the bootloader? Also, I have an Nvidia GTX 260. Would it make any difference using that video card? And I am curious why all the reference with video cards with a line that says bluetooth?

Onixs Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 add this line to /Extra/org.Chameleon.Boot.plist <key>NVCAP_0402</key> <string>0400000000000100060000000000000700000000</string> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flybye Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 Since I have not installed Chimera for fear of not being able to reboot again, I dont have the Extra folder. Should I install it again and edit the plist file? Would that also apply with the GTX260? Using the correct device ID, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onixs Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 im helping you out.. if you have "fear" on doing it, then hacking is not for you. You can try that 260 but the NVCAP is only for the 8600 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flybye Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 Oh Im not afraid. I was just mentioning that I havent reinstalled Chimera again so that I can be here in 10.9.5 like I am now. I'll get to reinstalling it now then. Wish me good luck and thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onixs Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 BTW.. i think i misread your post. Boot from the HD with GraphicsEnabler=Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flybye Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 Well, the Extra folder was created. But there is no org.Chameleon.Boot.plist file in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onixs Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 copy it from your usb installer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flybye Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 Actually I got it working a different way! In ##### I selected the ##### option in Quick Start which has basic boot options of EthernetBuiltIn=Yes, GraphicsEnabler=No, IGPEnabler=Yes, Legacy Logo=Yes and Timeout=2. Not sure which one did it, but all that matters is that it works. Oops. I didnt know the other site's stuff is not supported here. Sorry bout that. I always bounce between both sites for help. Insanely has always been far faster with help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
