ran0 Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 I think this is a very common problem among osx86 installers in laptops. I could find several posts by users having the same problem but no satisfactory solution. While booting from the install DVD the system hangs mid-way.

I am using a Leopard AMD 10.5.1 DVD but this problem is common with other users booting from iATKOS, Kalyway, ToH etc. Some similar posts I could find having the same problem: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=77327 (HP NC8000 laptop) http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=68480&view=findpost&p=500423 http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=77380 (Acer travelmate 8204wlmi) My system specs: Toshiba Sattelite A215-S4697 AMD Turion64 X2 1.6 Ghz 1GB RAM, 160GB HDD Radeon X1200 And no, I do not have any options to disable ACPI from bios. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you very much Ran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
startermac Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Yes, I have a HP laptop and am facing the same problem. I tried using the -v -f -x,etc command line parameters but of no use. I am getting exactly the same error with Kalyway and iATKOS. Do I have any hope? Help me please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerTea Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Any Updates on this? I get the exact same error while trying to install iATKOS v1.0i on Dell Inspiron 8200, which is a Notebook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glitchbit Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 This problem has been around since Tiger. I finally read some where about how to fix it. It would seem you can do one of two things. Delete the kext file that relates to that and try and pull the old Kext files from 10.4.8 if they had worked for you. And the second method I am only aware of it working on Asus laptops but it should work on others I would expect. Try the different BIOS updates for your laptops, some F series laptops from Asus work only with BIOS 203 some other, might be 207. I have a G2S and I am on BIOS 205 and I get the same error... until I reload Vista I cannot downgrade or upgrade my BIOS. I will also try the kalyway release, I have heard some differing success with it to get past the ACPI as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pp77 Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Hi! Had the same problem on a ASROCK Conroe 1333-D667 1.0 motherboard, with iATKOS (10.5), Kaly (10.5), (and even with uphuck - 10.4). Installer (with -v) hangs on ACPI_SMC... or reboots. The solution I found was to downgrade the bios, in my case from the latest 1.80 to 1.10, this is still a work in progress, but after the downgrade the iATKOS dvd booted without any problem and proceeded to install. The problem now is tweaking the rest Is this some sort of OEM action to stop OSX86? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antaholics Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Hi, I have an Asus F3 series laptop and I'm getting this error when I boot up the BrazilMac patched DVD... and I tried all the different BIOS versions (203, 204, 206, 207) with no success. Does anyone know where the file is so I can try and replace it? Thanks, Ant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludowing Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Hi everyone, first post! I'm trying to make Leopard on my G2S, but still no luck... I've tried both of the solutions mentioned here (BIOS upgrade and files removal) but even the latest 212 BIOS update doesn't change a thing...Also, I've tried to use 10.4.8 ACPI libraries, said to solve the problem in most cases... nothing changed... "Luckily", my system boots using the install DVD, but it's obviously very slow. So... any news? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerTea Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Anybody? I'd really like to get the Inspiron 8200 working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antaholics Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Hey guys, I got this to work eventually, but I didn't reply back to this thread =/ For my Asus F3 series laptop, I had to pull AppleACPIPlatform.kext and AppleAPIC.kext from the 10.4.8 install and boot using a .mkext file. After having no luck with this, I tried remaking my BrazilMac DVD by replacing the 2 kexts again... and I got it to load past this error (it still appeared)... and it hanged somewhere else. I replaced the 2 kexts another time (remade my mkext file) and made the DVD AGAIN... finally it booted into the DVD! I don't know if this will help anyone at all, but that's how I solved my problem =/ Good luck! Ant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerTea Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 antaholics, do you mind sending the 10.4.8 kexts to me? I don't have any Tiger Disks. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antaholics Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Not sure how to send files via PM, but I'm uploading the kexts I replaced in my Leopard DVD (forgot to put in ApplePS2Controller.kext so I didn't have keyboard for install lol) How DO you send files via pm?

GingerTea Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Thanks for posting them. About sending files via PM on InsanelyMac: Only Donators can do so, as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lpperras Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Hi, I have the same problem with an Inspiron 8600. Did anyone figure this out? Is the fuile in attachement working for you guys? I will try to replace those files in the DVD Image I have, but I'm in Windows, not sure it'll work. If any one has a clue on how to fix this please let me know, Thanks!

Chocomel Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Is it possible to add the files by using Magic Iso? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chocomel Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 So i'll just have to copy the files to the iso and burn it again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treyarch Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I have got the same problem on my ASUS G1S. I have managed to install Leopard using the Kalyway 10.5.1 DVD but when I reboot I can't get the system to boot without the DVD. I've tried many time to replace the Kext with no success, they get restored from somewhere even when I empty the cache through Terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glitchbit Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 To those that have done this. Did this allow you to use both CPUs? particulary on Asus Core 2 Duo laptops? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramires Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Hello. I have ASUS A8Js notebook, and had a problem after installing new 9.2 kernel, getting panic like at 1st post here. (com.apple.driver.ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin"). I found this plugin into the IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext and just delete it first. And had booting! Just long time boot, around 3-4 min. Then i just replace IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext from 10.5.1 Leo and got normal, fast boot and working system 10.5.2 Leo with 9.2 kernel. Maybe this help someone.

antaholics Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 To those that have done this. Did this allow you to use both CPUs? particulary on Asus Core 2 Duo laptops? Asus core 2 duo laptops (mostly F3 series and AFAIK probably G series) have not been known to be able to use both cores. Bios compatibility problems with new ACPI and APIC kexts is the issue. Let me know if you know anyone who has both cores running! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Your_destinY Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 @Ramires Thank you for your solution! It worked great for me btw: in my asus f3jm both cores work before and after the update (intel t5600 1,83ghz) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyperlogic Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Hi, Sorry - noob here. been using PCs for ages but this is new to me. I got the update file (Leo_ACPI_APIC_SMBIOS.zip) because I have the same problem as above. I have read to put these on the original ISO (will try Magic ISO - I have it already) but where do I put the files in the ISO? Sorry to be a pain. Would appreciate any help. Thanks. Ben.
