splits Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Did you look for AHCI in your boards settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink Waters Posted September 13, 2008 Author Share Posted September 13, 2008 no it doesn't support it can i unload this sata patch using a darwin boot command or something so i can get into the system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splits Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I'm not really familiar with the patch you're talking about tbh. :/ If it's just a driver, then really if the hardware isn't there it shouldn't affect it as far as the drive controllers go, but again I am not really familiar with it. You could try booting with "-x" and see if you can get into your system that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
