Typhoon_Master Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Hi, Old Problem: I loaded Ideneb 10.5.5 and i wanted to install it on my PC. But i allways get a white screen with an apple logo and a black cycle that goes arround. i launched with -v and the last line is:"using 16384 buffer headers and 4096 cluster IO buffer headers" I hope you can help me. Would be great! ---> Solution: Install OSX with CPUS=1-fix and ACPI-Fix Asus Maximus II Forumla (Intel P45 Chipset) EVGA 8800 GTX Intel Q6700 4GB Kingston HyperX 1066 ----> Edit <---- New Problem I wanted to install also Windows on my HDD, but it can't manage the HDD's when in my bios "AHCI" is set. But HacMac only works wenn "AHCI" is set, otherwhise i cant boot... So, how can i install both? "AHCI" --> Mac works, Windows doesn't (BlueScreen) "RAID" --> Mac can't boot: "Still waiting for root device", Windows also doesn't "IDE" --> Mac can't boot: "Still wainting for root device", Windows works AHCI --> All HDD's in thair Full size available! Also all paritions are shown! RAID --> No HDD's available on Install IDE --> Enhanced --> No HDD's available on Install IDE --> Compatible --> HDD'S available but all have a size of 128GB WTF? (In Windows Installer in FullSize wtf?) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/153292-still-waiting-for-root-device/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon_Master Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 YES! I also got it to work! Thank you! But Full Graphics (Installed NvidiaGO), Audio are not running. Also i had to install cpus=1-fix. Can't i run it with 4 cores? Edit: I want to dualboot with windows... and theres no ahci comapiblity for windows. As IDE i can't install osx on it... And as RAID i can install osx but not boot :< Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/153292-still-waiting-for-root-device/#findComment-1082652 Share on other sites More sharing options...
