tocophonic Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Hello folks, I have got kind of a strange problem there. I switched from my old system (A8N32 SLI Deluxe + Athlon 64 X2 3800+) to a new one (P5Q3 + Core 2 Quad Q9650) because I had a lot of problems with installing OSx86 (only distribution that worked on my AMD was Leo4All v1.3, with only one core working). Now I have the problem that if I dont disable ACPI APIC support in the BIOS, the OSx86 CDs (except iDeneb 1.3 & 1.4) wont even boot. I see the apple logo for about half a second, then the system restarts. If I disable the ACPI APIC support in the BIOS, installation boots fine, but then my USB Mouse (Logitech MX518, attached to onboard-USB) does not work. Keyboard (PS2) works fine. I get farthest with iDeneb, but iDeneb isnt able to see my SATA-HD in the harddisk manager in OS X installation. Any ideas? I dont have a clue what to try next.. thanks in advance, toco P.S.: Distributions I tried: iPC 10.5.6, iAtkos 1.3, iDeneb 1.3/1.4, xXx 10.5.6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tocophonic Posted March 29, 2009 Author Share Posted March 29, 2009 Despite there havent been any answers to my thread yet, I advanced a bit with my problems.. the automatic reboot problem is gone since I patched my BIOS with the modded v0609 one by Juzzi (thanks!). All distributions (except iDeneb v1.3/v1.4, which don't show my SATA hard disk) now install fine, but after installation when I want to boot into OS X, i get an "boot1: error" Any ideas what i could do? [jMicron controller mode for SATA disks is set to AHCI in the BIOS (default is IDE)] hope to get some help.. toco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tocophonic Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 Despite there unfortunately was no help by other users, I finally made it. If someone experiences the exact same problem in the future, that's how it worked for me: When preparing (formatting) your HFS drive, don't format with the case sensitive HFS+! Simply choose the HFS journaled option... no more boot1:errors! toco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
