In Topic: ICH10R (in RAID mode) Working (in SL)...Sorta

So, there's no way to have the Mac OS on the RAID0?


No. Even Linux fails to recognize the array. The problem is that this isn't really RAID. Its a bunch of drivers that ship for Windows; the processor sits there and copies the data over as you use the array in Windows. I wouldn't risk doing anything with these drives without that special windows driver.

To make a long story short, if you already use the RAID functionality of ICH10R then don't touch the affected drives from any operating system other than Windows: you will corrupt the array.

If you don't already use the ICH10R raid functionality, DON'T! Get a proper dedicated hardware RAID card that makes the array drives look as one drive for all intents and purposes. If I knew that this was a gimmick and not a hardware RAID I would have never wasted my time. It creates more problems than it solves.

For the benefit of future generations: I have the system booting from USB drive on a P5Q-E with IDE setting set to RAID in bios; putting chameleon on the system drive, which is not part of an array, after installation results in boot1: error.

I used a combination of the following:

and

From the second I'm not using the whole linux and grub thing, I just grabbed the kext he mentions at the end of the post.

In Topic: ADI AD2000b works with applehda

King has created a new version of his AD2000B.kext that supersedes the old one, which didn't work all that well in the first place (Mic issues). This works with Leopard and Snow Leopard, and Mics fully work.



You can grab it at RapidShare.

For people that are on SL, I'm also attaching the kext along with the new 32bit/64bit of HDAEnabler. These are the only kexts you need to get the AD2000B working under SL. HDEFEnabler is not required.

I've tried about a million different things to get sound on my P5Q-e. This is the only solution that worked on Snow Leopard aside from VoodooHDA. Thank you!

However, I can't control the volume when I'm using Digital Out. Does anyone know how to fix that?
EDIT: Looks like thats a "feature" on Apple computers. http://ask.metafilte...t-full-on-a-Mac

I installed HDAEnabler into my System/Library/Extensions using kext helper. Then I placed ad2000b.kext AND HDAEnabler.kext into the Extra/CustomExentions folder of my chameleon installation. Don't forget to sudo touch System/Library/Extensions and rebuild the kextcache for chameleon.

How did you get this working? I have Windows installed on ICH10R that I want to keep. I just want to install OS X on a separate drive and keep the BIOS set to RAID.
