Simonsayz Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Quick question to ANYONE who can help me. I've tried to install many versions of Mac OS X and all of them would boot off the DVD but would fail to recognise the HDD from the disk utilities menu. It would only list the 4 gig DVD drive. This has been driving me absolutly crazy. I dont know if it's only ment for XP or not but I have a Vista Home Premium. (Man i hate Vista) I partitioned the drive too with Acronis Disk Director. I dont know what other information to list for my laptop so here is what i got. If you need more information just let me know. My computer specs are: HP Pavillion dv6748us ACPI x86-Based PC (Mobile) Mobile Dual Core AMD Turion 64 x2 TL-60 2000MHz NVIDIA GeForce 7150m/ nForce 630m Someone PLEASE help me figure out how to put Mac on my PC lol (I'm too cheap to buy a Mac ) THANK YOU!!!!!

mark-san Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 got it!!! i used the method provided by dcat and have now ata and sata-support at full speed. see below for downloading the two extensions. all credits go to dcat as always do sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/* sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/* and remove the kext-cache and boot with -f Hi, can you upload the file again? it gives me an error when i try to download it from the forum!

impulsion Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 i just want some info on how to patch a install dvd with this using windows, i don't have a functioning osx build cause i can't get any of them to load!!! i get still waiting for root device on all. this really seems to be an issue with a lot of people on here! would be nice if someone could add this to future builds of osx or at least make a patch for current iso's!

Houbos Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 impulsion>I have the same problem. I tried 10.5.2 for AMD (32-bit), Zephyroth 10.5.2.revision 1 and revision 2, but with no success. We should patch DVD with .kext files, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrorgen Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 I don't know if this is a problem related to this kext, but I'll post it anyways. My Hackintosh used to detect and mount DVDs properly before applying this patch. I applied this patch so that I won't be switching between AHCI and IDE mode everytime I switched between Windoze and Mac. Now something happened, both my CD and DVD drives are detected (well, sometimes they don't), but the OS don't automatically mount discs whenever I insert a disc to any of the drives. (I haven't tried to mount them manually though)\ Any solutions? (Of course, I have SB600 chipset, and both optical drives are IDE) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremiahzg Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I patched the Zephyroth 10.5.1 AMD image with this and installed on my SB600 SATA drive successfully. After the installation, I copied both kexts to the hard drive (using the install DVD) and chmod'd them recursively to 755 and chown'd them recursively to root:wheel, then booted with -f. After some FireWire messages, the dis{c,k} drives stop and the message "Still waiting for root device" repeats at one-minute intervals, and the system does not boot. Any suggestions for fixing this? Do I need to delete Extensions.mkext (or the like) rather than boot with -f? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzrabbit Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Just one small problem with this, The ATA works great with AppleServerWorksATA , But, using the VIAATA for SB600 Sata Support, is defeating the purpose, the VIAATA only supports sata-150 not sata-300. ZZ I have looked at the code but can't figure out what to do. .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d412k5t412 Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 I got Leopard to show the DVD drive with the patch and unpacking the plug-ins, but nothing will load from the cds. Any ideas? update: I am able to copy the information from the CDs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cNone Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 hi i have managed to install them correctly. thank you for your great work. it works now but with a little flaw: iokitwaitquiet: .... timed out to writing kernel symbols.. if i don't encounter this error ide drives are not detected.. and this error slows down the boot sequence. i have found the forum post regarding this error but when i apply that solution, again the ide drives lost. any suggestions?
