can osx86 run natively on an SiS chipset mobo?

[colorfuel]

exactly what SiS chipset do you have, and what SiS Ethernet Adaptor? I also have a SiS chipset, but no luck in native until now (That means havent tried either 1.4.3 nor 1.4.4 nor 1.4.5 yet)

 

Any info would be useful,

 

thanks and congratz on your working system

Sis 648 should work but without UDMA. I tried to hack & compile some drivers for the sis chipset, but never managed to make them work. So it works, but HDD is rather slow...

Any answers to getting the SIS chipsets with ethernet & sound working? I have an averatec with one.

ok, well i did the -v and it showed up as "still waiting for root device". any ideas?

 

my complete specs are

 

-Pentium 4/ 3.0E GHz 800MHz FSP, 1MB L1 Cache, Hyperthreading

-ASUS P4S800 SiS648FX Chipset Motherboard

-2x 512MB Corsair Value Select DDR PC-3200

-BFG Geforce 6800 GT 256mb GDDR3 370MHz core clock

-NEC 2510a DVD Burner

-Thermaltake Silent Purepower 480W power supply

 

This mobo doesn't work,

I have the same error *sight*

Hey guys a heads I got it installed, for the SIS you need to make sure your hard drive and dvd are on the same chan 0 (aka IDE 0) and the DVD is a slave to the HD

can anyone would this baord confirm this?

I will try this tonight. I have a P4S800 motherboard.

Also having the same issue "Still waiting for root device".

Apparently USB HD should do the trick and boot OSX without still waiting for device error. Ive also got SIS 760 chipset.Hopefully there will be kext released out soon.

I have the Asus N90SC with SiS M671DX  chipset and i have a Yosemite USB boot stick, MacPwn, and it boots, but i cannot make it so ir recognize my harddisk. No ahci in bios.

I tried Mulibeast: 3rd party SATA and Intel Generic AHCI Sata and i tried several other IoAtaFamilt.kext drivers.

 

So problem is to find the right kext to see my Sata harddisk, no AHCI in bios. Latest bios installed 2.05

No succes so far, but i have a bootable installer
