Namek91 Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Hi, I have a problem with my notebook - Toshiba Satellite L20-101: Intel Pentium M 740 - 1733 MHz 512MB DDR2 Intel 915GM Conexant Cx20468 Realtek RTL8139 Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG on MiniPCI / PCMCIA and TP-LINK TL-WN510G on PCMCIA (Atheros AR5005G) TOSHIBA 60GB SATA MAT{censored}A UJ-841S I have already installed iDeneb v1.3 with Kernel 9.4.0 StageXNU (Intel/AMD/SSE2/SSE3), but when the installation was sucefull completed and I'm boot my notebook from HD, I have see "Apple", and fcking "Still waiting for root device" (I have already started with -v -x -f parametrs, but nothings work...). I have found some solution: "If you are using a SATA disk, make sure it is set for IDE legacy mode in the PC BIOS and not 'enhanced' Get a IDE Hard Disk(you can attach the IDE hard disk, but still install the OS on the SATA drive. It just helps to get past the "still waiting for root device error".)" but in my BIOS of Toshiba there is no option, to switch my Hard Drive to AHCI, IDE or RAID! There is no fcking option to switch? What should I do right now? PS: Sorry for my english... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N!CK Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 did you install the included chipset driver? if not this would cause the problem. after you do that your going to have a graphics issue, no acceleration... heres the solution http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...10176&st=20 hope this all works out for you, let us know what happens.

Namek91 Posted October 25, 2008 Author Share Posted October 25, 2008 Yes, I'm installed ICHx Fixed... Yea... I know, there will be problem with QE/CI on 915GM (GMA900) and this is solution http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...10176&st=20, but when I should do this - install kext for graphic card, if I can't start my Leopard... meybe I should install kext form Terminal from Installer (from DVD)? Or should I install other included (on iDeneb) chipset driver? Everest Home Edition told me, I have ICH6... Meybe should I copy kext from this http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=88335 - IOATAFamily.kext_V1.1.zip (IOATAFamily.kext) with MacDrive to Leopard partition to /System/Library/Extensions/ and then from DVD repair permission: sudo -s chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/IOATAFamily.kext chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/IOATAFamily.kext rm -f /System/Library/Extensions.mkext ??

N!CK Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 well being able to use Leopard would be useful before installing the graphics... i just added that as a side note :-P if another chipset driver is available on ideneb DVD then try it and see if it works, it took me a few installs to get it right when i made the switch to Leo from Tiger. Or you could try replacing IOATAFamily.kext with MacDrive, i had to do the same on my notebook because i had the same problem and it worked...

Namek91 Posted October 25, 2008 Author Share Posted October 25, 2008 A sht... I have already copy IOATAFamily.kext to /System/Library/Extensions/ with MacDrive, but I can't do this: sudo -s chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/IOATAFamily.kext chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/IOATAFamily.kext rm -f /System/Library/Extensions.mkext I'm boot notebook from DVD and I'm tried to do this, but Terminal sead me: No such file or director... I have tired, to start Mac with -s - F8, and ten -s [enter], but "Still waiting for root device" ;] What should I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManiacBS Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Hey! Did you solved this problem? I have the same problem now with iPC 10.5.6 on my girlfriends Toshiba L20-101. Thanks for your help! Edit: Solved the problem by adding "Intel ICHx SATA Drivers"-kext! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
