Kevin1986 Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Hey, Ive been trying to get osx86 to work on my machine for ages now (well, a day, feels longer), I was always being troubled by the "Waiting for root device" errors. But tried iAtkos 4i and managed to start setup. But i cant seem to get osx to see either of my hard disks. Ive googled all day, tried diffrent distros of osx86, tried vmware installing on a phsyical disk, just wont work. I think my problem is my chipset. Or i did until i was browsing here. I saw some people have their HW specs in their signatures, and i noticed 1 or 2 with the same chipset as I have, so that leads me to beleive theres a fix! i hope. Else its something else thats the problem My Hardware (relevant): intel c2d e8400 mobo mrs800 chipset ati? sb600 2x sATAII harddisks \!/Wich osx doesnt wanna recognize geforce 7600 its basicly the guts (mobo, memory, psu, chipset) of an Acer Aspire t671 Desktop. But with an Nvidia Card. I have IAtkos 4i downloaded and burned but if i have to try another distro thats np, decent net speed and access to the files, check. Hopefully someone can shed some light on this! cheers. tl;dr osx wont recognize serial ATA hard drives regardless of partition type Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/137164-iatkos-4i-chipset-error-i-think/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
