LordDrk Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Hi i have a hackintosh but after a blackout my disk got corrupted so i'm trying to boot from pendrive to fix. But i tried every single possible way i can but i cant pass the Apple logo Tried nv_disable=1, tried -x, -v First attemption i got a stop sign, then i removed my installation from USB 3 and use only usb 2.0. If i dont use -v the loading bar crashes almost in the end, the cursor appears, then turn into the loading cursor and no progress after that. ------- SPECS Maximus VII Ranger4790K980 Ti840 PRO Thanks in advance. Btw i did the pen drive twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nawcom Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Do you have FakeSMC loading on the USB? if you aren't seeing it loading in verbose mode you can boot in single user mode and run kextstat to verify that that's the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, i didnt, i only used UB7 and did all the steps to make a clean installation. Well i removed the kext but still doesnot have any success booting.

nawcom Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I don't have experience with UB and if you want help with it then you should ask on their forum. Read: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/ I don't make the rules here. As for FakeSMC.kext, NEVER remove that. It emulates the SMC chip on real Macs which includes the decryption key needed to execute a number of mandatory binaries to reach the GUI interface in OS X. What you're describing is what happens when you are not loading that kext. In verbose mode you never reach the GUI; in no verbose mode you reach a grey GUI with a busy cursor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
