In Topic: Windows 8 a major fiasco both on PCs and phones

21 April 2013 - 04:23 AM

At my work we have both XP and OSX. Only thing with OSX is they only pay for a MacPro if your in creative dept making catalog layouts, otherwise get 5 year old Dell :( . Many people have they're own MacBookPro's on desk next to Win XP machine, using both or just the Mac. No bringing own windows of any kind allowed, only Macs are OK :)

Um, you don't only get one chance to enable your internet. :) Just do it after the initial setup thingy. It's actually common to not have working LAN on your first boot, it's a hackintosh NOT a Macintosh, so further "hacking" after the installation is usually required to get it working, among other things.....and yeah, providing info on your NIC is the only way to get any help

I consider my self computer savvy (no need to list credentials here like similar posters do elsewhere) :) Windows 8 makes me feel retarded, like I'm some computer noob. After wanting to throw mice and keyboards at stuff in frustration at how difficult everything had to be, and within 3mins of booting and finishing updates on a new install getting spyware (only site visited was AIDA64), I don't think I'm the retarded one. I'll take XP or win7 over that crap any day. Especially when, away from home, if I'm on Windows it's because I'm working and need to get stuff stuff done.  Metro cannot make that easier anyway you look at it. I can't imagine switching between multiple Excel spreadsheets going in and out of Access with Metro wanting to be my program/file manager.

In Topic: How to extract dsdt from single user mode? thanks

IIRC Clover can extract at boot up, see Clover section for any info. When actually in Single User mode, what can be done is limited because the frameworks haven't loaded, so even a majority of command line tools will not work, just vary basic ones.

Hi, eep!

Any strange Console logs when you try to initiate the connection?

All the best!
None. The console shows authentication completed and connection is open. I think issue is with mounting of AFP share, there are quite filesystem and AFP non-fat (64bit only) binaries inside usr/sbin, usr/bin, S/L/Filesystems and S/L/PrivateFrameworks that are only fat-binary in Lion and even DP1 has 64bit only. Then also a bunch that got changed to 64bit only when doing 10.8.3 software update, and a bunch that are symbolic links pointing to the binary in another location too. Would prefer to use as little DP1 stuff as possible, and even less Lion stuff (last option) and of course not swap files that don't need to be and/or screw up the symbolic links (because I've already done this while trying stuff :) ).If anyone knows exactly what binaries, libraries and/or frameworks OSX uses when mounting and browsing a AFP share?
