kocoman Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Can anyone tell me what exactly the patch does? The DVD can find my SATA drive and installs. but not after it gets installed to the HD, I get the "Still waiting for" error. My id is 0x28218086, and there is no messages about this.

cloverbay Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 how do you do the patching? sorry to ask such a noob question. do you patch it on the iso itself or do you patch it after the installation? anyway, i can't even get the OSX running on my P5BE Plus board using 965 chipset. tried the tips given on the Asus P5B & Gigabyte DS3 (disabling legacy devices, using AHCI mode, connect the SATA optical drive & HDD to the black ports, etc), no luck, keep hanging the the grey apple logo with the small "no entry" sign. using Jas 10.4.7 btw, not sure how to check what kernel also. " any tips would be greatly appreciated. thx!! u guys are great!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Wang Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 In a Chinese OS X86 forum, someone made patches for ICH8 and ICH8R for Gigabyte GA965 S3\DS3\DS4 DQ6. I have installed ICH8R patch, now both ICH8R SATA and JMicron 363 SATA on my desktop are enabled and work well. Below is the link: http://bbs.think-different.cn/thread-2641-1-2.html Please note, you need to register to the forum before you can download any attachment.

cloverbay Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 thx for the link. but you need to have the OS already installed before the patch right? installation not successful, how to do the patching? must it really be ver 10.4.8 before it can be installed in the 965 chipset?

Bruce Wang Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 thx for the link. but you need to have the OS already installed before the patch right? installation not successful, how to do the patching? must it really be ver 10.4.8 before it can be installed in the 965 chipset? I used 10.4.8 INTEL SSE3 Only for installation. Just enable AHCI in BIOS, connect your HDD and DVD to ICH8R SATA (with a converter if necessary), the HDD can be recognized during installation without problem. After installation, just apply the patch to enable on-board JM 363 SATA/IDE. p.s. 10.4.8 INTEL SSE3 Only supports ICH8R SATA but not JM 363 SATA/IDE.

cloverbay Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 i've tried installing & apparently, only the Jas 10.4.8 works for the 965 chipset. (mine was the ordinary Jas, not the 1.ppf ver) the 1st thing to do is to set the SATA & JMicron settings to AHCI via BIOS. next i used the XP disc to partition my HDD, but MUST be primary partitions then install winXP, but MUST have a floppy with the AHCI driver (needed for "press F6 for other drivers") otherwise XP won't install in AHCI mode after XP is installed, pop in the Jas OS X.4.8 disc & follow thru the installation after OS X, i did a dual boot using chain0 method. maybe you can boot into OS X alone w/o XP dual booting. i don't know cos i still depend on XP for daily work. the last part is the most tedious... drivers installation & tweaking for the OS X, which can be found in this forum contributed by cool guys/gals here. THX!! i found that the OS X recognises my IDE Plextor burner (via JMicron) w/o special patch. not sure about the RAID though, if thats what you are running.

genomespam Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 clover what and where is the w/o special patch for jmicron ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloverbay Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 oh... from prev page, Bruce has put a link to where a patch is found in order for OS X to recognise the JMicron 363 chip. i found the OS X recognises it (i'm not not in RAID, just AHCI). so maybe there isn't a need for the patch afterall. anyone can confirm? thx.

Mr-Mur Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Hi, pals! I got a little prolblema: my RAID 0 array is NOT apperared at System Profiler... I got only two SATA disks, separately. Intel D975XBX - 2*80Gb SATA Seagte + 250Gb Seagate SATA Mac OS X 10.4.8 installed onto IDE Seagate 80 Gb hard. HDDs are connected to ICH7-R's SATA ports (not additional Marvel's chip), RAID array created thru Intel Matrix Storage tool. SATA is enabled afer applying a bikedude880.ich7r.pkg.zip kext patch (can be found at http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=43785). All hards have NTFS file system, so could it be a reason of these disks can not be initialized and mounted??? As you can see, I have two 80's ST380811AS, which are detected as two separate HDDs... but in windows there's only one RAID hard drive, with capacity 160Gb.

mastrchee Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 the patch works..but only when I disable AHCI in the bios. I have a ICH7-M & i would prefer to use AHCI. Any info on this? Please help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedna Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 All hards have NTFS file system, so could it be a reason of these disks can not be initialized and mounted??? Yes. You need to create the RAID array under Mac OS X to make the system recognize it (Apple Software Raid). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonmel Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 a new twist. I have a badax where the windows install is on a strip array and the osx install is on a seperate sata drive that is not part of the array. I can boot that osx install fine when the drives are set to ahci in the bios but not when the bios is set to configure sata as raid. If I boot a osx install that I have on IDE when the system is set for raid it recognizes and I can use any non strip sata drive. Any way I can keep my system set for raid yet still have acronis or some other method boot the sata os x install?? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zulu.Walker Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 The ICH8 Patch works for the first two ports on a Gigabyte GA-965P-S3, still no go with the last 2 ports. There must be something to make those last two ports to work, I don't think it's impossible. ICH8 + JMicron GA-965P-S3 = still two SATA (purple JM) and two more AHCI (orange ICH8). IDE works even before the supplied ICH8 patch. Last two orange ICH8 AHCI ports still not detected by OS X. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
