Intel P45 chipset and ICH10 compatibility?


21 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

this month ASUS and MSI released mainboards with Intel's new P45 chipset and the ICH10 southbridge chipset.

 

It features:

6x S-ATAII ports,

1x GBit LAN,

1x PCIe 2.0 x16

2x PCIe 2.0 x8,

max. 16GB 667/800/1066/1333 DDR2 and DDR3 RAM.

 

For example the:

MSI P45 Neo-F/FR/Neo2-FR, P45 Platinum and P45D3

ASUS P5Q /Pro /Deluxe

 

Do you know if one of this boards is able to run Leopard, or if there are any problems with USB, SATAII controller, sound or something else.

 

Thank you in advance for your reply.

I had installed the Leo4all v3 and Kalyway 10.5.2 on my ex-system of ASUS P5K-E Wifi, I replaced the motherboard with the new ASUS P5Q-Deluxe few days ago, every other hardwares are the same. As expected both Leo4all and Kalyway can't boot up and the both installation disc can't boot up too. I think we have to wait for the next updates to support this P45 chipset!

For my P45 Platinum no go. It just hangs on already installed 10.5.x , the Install DVD (Kalyway a. Leo4all) stops on an kernel panics (SMC_ACPI_xxx).

 

Needs some new drivers huh ;)

I am planning got get a P45 board for my osx86 as well.

For the kernel panics, have u tried to set `ACPI Suspend type` to S3 in bios ?

If that doesn't work, try others setting as well.

 

Tried w/ all possible settings in BIOS, like i said, no go.

Tengo un MSI P45 Neo-F con un micro E8400 corriendo el Leopard 10.5.2 de Kaliway.

Luego de innumerables jornadas tratando de instalarlo y de haber probado con todas las distribuciones posibles logré instalarlo de la siguiente manera

 

1) Actualicé el BIOS a la última versión, lo que me permitió configurar el SATA en modo AHCI para que me reconociera los discos y la lectora de DVD.

2) Configuré el BIOS por defecto y le cambié

PCI IDE Busmastering: Enabled

On-chip SATA controller: Enabler

Raid mode: AHCI

ACPI function: Enabled

API standby state: S3

3) Instale el Kaliway sin ninguna configuración especial.

4) Inicié la máquina desde el XP con el MacDrive instalado para poder ver los dispositivos HFS+.

5) Reemplacé todas las extensiones de la instalación del disco rígido por las que vienen en el sistema del DVD Kaliway.

6) Inicié de nuevo con el DVD y reparé permisos con la utilidad de disco.

7) Reinicié desde el disco rigido y lo hizo sin problemas, reconociendome la red.

8) Instalé el driver para mi placa de video Nvidia 8400 de 256 megas y me la reconoció.

9) Lo que me falta es instalar el sonido.

Yes, everything works on Gigabyte GA-P45-DS4, I started with Iatkos 4 with efi and vanilla kernel. Worked but, some things

 

where mentioned wrong, processor speed and bus speed. ICH10 is mentioned as unknown AHCI controller, but it works.

 

All programs working, except Logic Pro 8.0.2 (dreadfull audio midi sync problem).

 

Upgraded to vanilla 10.5.5 (found guide on this forum, pre patch, comboupdate 10.5.5, post patch, restart).

 

Everything is now properly recognized in system profiler, only the ich10 not yet. Still same problem with Logic Pro).

 

As this is a DAW Hackintosh, I was desperate and used the post patch again, and switched to a patched kernel,

 

and YEY, now everything is running great! Including Logic Pro. No longer vanilla, but I don't care.

 

Oh yeah, I downloaded the realtek lan drivers from the realtek website for the 8111 LAN, working super on my

 

gigabit network. Blazing speed between my Vista64 PC and my Hackintosh Leopard PC.

 

I'm using an external Edirol FA-66 firewire audio card, so I don't know if the onboard audio works.

 

Videocard NVidia XFX 7600GT XXX working great with NVinject with two big screen S-IPS Dell monitors connected.

 

All USB's are also working.

Hi,

 

To boot Kalyway 10.5.2 and 10.5.1 on a P45 motherboard, you need to use "cpus=1 -legacy -platform -f". At setup screen, select JSSE2_Jas1048_ACPI_APIC, or SSE2 in Kalyway 10.5.1, DON'T SELECT ANY VIDEO DRIVERS!

In Kalyway 10.5.2, select Boot with "cpus=1" flag, all Motherboard Chipsets, none of the sound drivers and if you want, VanillaKernel and others.

 

Boot time take 10 minutes from DVD. On reboot after install, you will see flying stars an Welcome!

 

There's no sound or video yet on mine, but I hope to fix that soon.
