ICH10-kexts cause LONG BOOT TIME!

Hello ...

 

I had very fast boot-up time with (only) JMicron- kexts (10 SEC).

But I needed to get my ICH10 SATA DRIVES also working, so I INSTALLED ICH10-kexts.

(Because my mobo have only one JMicron-SATA-connector.)

 

Drives work fine but system BOOT-UP TIME is now over 1MIN!.

 

Can I delete some kexts for example or do something else to speed up booting?

Now I have this "error message" -> "... timed out waiting to write kernel symbols"

which propably slows things down, am I right? Or is it some other peripherials that

cause this boot-up-slow-down? Anyone have solution for this?

 

my mobo: P5K

(btw. BIOS wont allow to setup SATA as AHCI.its IDE-mode.)

 

Thanks...

Problem solved! For you all strugling with same problem, download this patched IOATAFamily.kext and delete

LegacyAppleAHDCIPort.kext, LegacyAppleIntelPIIXATA.kext and LegacyIOAHCIBlockStorage.kext, and you get

very fast boot-up and no random hangs with SATA drive-accesses .
