Luthraz Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I've had a few issues since updating to Yosemite on my Gigabyte EP45T-UD3LR, and now especially since updating to 10.10.3. Initially, my only issue was several USB ports not working on my tower, which I learned to deal with basically after no resolution being found.Now, after updating to 10.10.3 I cannot boot without ignoring caches (-f) at boot and sound does not work no matter what I try. I am attaching my boot screens both before attempting to fix the hanging boot by removing a kext (attachment 1.jpg) and the hanging verbose boot after the kext is removed (attachment 2.jpg). The kext removed is needed for my Ethernet as well, so I'm at a loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WaldMeister Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Hi, Any USB devices connected? If so, remove them and try to boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luthraz Posted April 12, 2015 Author Share Posted April 12, 2015 Pulled USB (everything but the keyboard) and still no dice! I will try to research the identifier as I tried using USBBusFix=Yes and had no luck with it either. I have a USB 3.0 card that I feel may be the culprit. If you all have any more ideas shoot. :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaldMeister Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Well, since you can boot with -f, try rebuilding the caches after booting with -f. Open up a terminal windows and type: sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions sudo kextcache -u / Are you injecting any USB related kexts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luthraz Posted April 13, 2015 Author Share Posted April 13, 2015 LexHimself: No I am not. I believe in the cache rebuild (thanks for that btw) it lists off everything I've installed via multib, here is a screenshot of that readout: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaldMeister Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Hi, Add the boot flag: kext-dev-mode=1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luthraz Posted April 15, 2015 Author Share Posted April 15, 2015 Lex here is what I got in my boot.plist. I already had kext-dev-mode=1: <key>EthernetBuiltIn</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>IGPEnabler</key> <string>No</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>kext-dev-mode=1</string> <key>Legacy Logo</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Timeout</key> <string>2</string> <key>HDEFLayoutID</key> <string>01000000</string> <key>GenerateCStates</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>GeneratePStates</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>UseKernelCache</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>HDAEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luthraz Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 So, after applying the 10.10.3 "supplemental update" now my hackintosh boots right up. I have no idea what this did or how it worked, I just know that at this point I've wasted so many hours on this machine I'm going to be buying a refurbished Mac Pro next or one that is more up to date as I'm simply tired of this becoming a Time Vampire everytime I want the latest and greatest OS...
