Stuie Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Hi Group, I am attempting a vanilla install on an Intel DG35EC mother board with a Q6600 and a Apple ATI 2600XT Video card using a 10.5 retail DVD. I have installed EFI and the retail DVD. I removed the AppleEFIRuntime.kext, AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext and replaced the AppleSMBIOS.kext, IOATAFamily.kext and AppleACPIPlatform.kext. Removed the Extensions.mkext When I boot with -v I get all the way past the network driver loading (onboard is not supported) and I start getting a message "Package 0 didn't get an HPET" I have the latest BIOS and enabled HPET. I have removed bootcache.ext as suggested in other thread, but with not success. I have also tried boot with -f nohpet =1, again no success. I feel I am so close. What can cause this message and how can I get around it? How can I tell what is causing this?

thefinalprophecy Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 double-check that you have AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext deleted because this is the most common reason for thisl also delete extensions.mkext.

Stuie Posted June 11, 2008 Author Share Posted June 11, 2008 Hi Group, Has anyone got any ideas on the HPET issue on this motherboard? Any suggestions on how I caould work out what is causing the issue?

Stuie Posted June 11, 2008 Author Share Posted June 11, 2008 Hi Yep done that. Checked several times, each time removing the Extensions.mext. Still constantly getting the error. Is there anything I can do to work out which extension is causing the issue? Can I remove / disable all extensions to confirm that it really caused by an extension? Is there a boot option for this?
