duchemeister Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 hi everybody, i dont know if this is the right place to post my need for help but this was the only place i could think of being right.. so here it goes. i have a asus p5k se motherboard and i want to install Kalyway 10.5.2 in the wiki under motherboards (P5K SE) http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/HCL_10.5.2#Asus it says something about needing a patch or something for ide or sata or whatever: "IDE (and possibly E-SATA) - Marvell chip 88SE61xx - needs patching: Marvell and others ATA kext for Leopard, by podarok - works after patch but crashes sometimes during trys to burn a DVD with Toast. " then it links to this page http://my.ukrweb.info/en/node/73 where the workaround should be i just dont know how to install this part.. when do i access the terminal?, cause last time i tried to install osx86 it just didnt seem to wanna boot.. (the "still searching for root device" error) so step by step what do i do to get to the install screen?? thx in advance!!

thorazine74 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 You would need to patch the DVD and inject the missing kexts if you want to add support for the controller if it doesnt have it already. Its a fairly long process, check this thread for more info. However you would only need to do that if: - You are installing from and IDE DVD. - You are installing to an eSATA drive. If you are installing from and to a drive connected to the main SATA ports you shouldnt need it. Try using a more recent distro, maybe they will even have support for the Marvell included.

podarok Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 in the wiki under motherboards (P5K SE) http://my.ukrweb.info/en/node/73 i just dont know how to install this part.. Heh. This drivers I used at the postinstall part. For accessing to IDE - I have USB2IDE adapter(very cheap and must have!). But after installation drivers from upper link just install using KextHelper Another way - prepare boot123 bootable disk and put my drivers into Extra/Extensions folder onto it - thats all! Good luck Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/155661-asus-p5k-se/#findComment-1100051 Share on other sites More sharing options...
