keeptruthfree Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I posted about this same problem about my Bad Axe 2 but someone deleted my thread. I have this exact problem going from iATKOS 1.0i to 10.5.3. Some weenie even accused me of a newbie error in my deleted thread. Could we address this problem actually now?

chipxsd Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 same here (iATKOS 1.0i - 10.5.2 -> 10.5.3) ... I had to disable the AHCI mode in BIOS and switch to the IDE mode to boot in to the OS X. But it has never been a problem before - not on a 10.4.X installation, and not even on a Leopard - until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have some odd out-there mobo... I have BAD AXE 2 !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersized Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I guess it should work if you used appleahciport.kext from 10.5.2. And maybe the ioahcifamily.kext. It worked for me. Why the shouting? Are you mad at us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaybc Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 hi, i had the same problem, used EFI, Vanilla 9.2.0 (not 9.2.2!!) and AHCI kext, tried many times, several solutions (restored from TM every time), evantualy solved it by restoring from TM, installed Leo4Allv3 on the same drive and partition, at "transfer user" stage selected from Time Machine backup, i have restored all users, applications, network and system settings (took about an hour), but the end result was a fixed 10.5.2 system with all my previous mac (didn't feel the change at all!) but this time update to 10.5.3 worked like a charm. sorry, i didn't made a diff so i can't say what file you need to change, but at least you have a procedure to upgrade from 10.5.2 (that was based on iAtkos v1.0i 10.5.1) hope this helps.

Probably is working for you because somehow your restores kept the ahci kext from 10.5.2 (check their version number) Could you post your AppleAHCIPort.kext and IOAHCIFamily.kext ?

Renegade Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Hi, Same problem for me, except that it worked two times, then I patched the HDA with patcher 1.20b and it happened... Could somebody post the AppleAHCIPort.kext file from Iatkos please ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keeptruthfree Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 here's the AppleAHCIPort.kext and IOAHCIFamily.kext that makes my 10.5.3 work with AHCI in BIOS on Bad Axe 2 they are both from the stock unmodified 10.5 dl-dvd. I went back to the 10.5 disk because these two kexts were not changed in the 10.5.1 or 10.5.2 updates. LeoAHCI.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VooD Posted May 31, 2008 Author Share Posted May 31, 2008 here's the AppleAHCIPort.kext and IOAHCIFamily.kextthat makes my 10.5.3 work with AHCI in BIOS on Bad Axe 2 Well, no surprises here, these are from an <10.5.3 version. What I really want to know is why suddenly AHCI no longer works with 10.5.3 kexts on ICH9R, and which other ICH models are affected. As far as it goes there's no longer a plugins folder inside IOAHCIFamily.kext and just one of the two <10.5.3 plugins is present now. Sadly I have not enough Os X knowledges other than trying things randomly which is not a good way for researching this kind of stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyr Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Because (at least) there is no entry for ICH8 and ICH9 in the Info.plist... In fact only for Generic , ICH6 ESB2 AHCI, ,ICH7MAHCI, and ICH8MAHCI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
