Rudy Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 When I try to install SL I can't see my harddrives in the installer, I managed to get it installed by pluging my harddrive through the E-SATA port on my computer but when I use the regular SATA it won't work (even after I installed it). I tried to copy my kext from Leopard but it doesn't help Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/173502-cant-see-harddrive/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Embio Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 E-SATA port.... can't see it if its not on that... suggests two makes of controller.... hmmmmmm...... could be a Mac?

Rudy Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share Posted July 4, 2009 Yes it's a hack, the mother board is an ASUS pk5c if that helps. As I said I never had problems with the controller under Tiger or Leopard but everything I try under SL fails Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/173502-cant-see-harddrive/#findComment-1192387 Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormPCs Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 E-SATA port.... can't see it if its not on that... suggests two makes of controller.... hmmmmmm...... could be a Mac? [/sarcasm] Is it your position that Macs can't have eSATA or multiple drive controllers? If it is then you would be incorrect.

Embio Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 if Rudy was a Mac Pro owner savy enough to have an E-SATA card, he would A, know the problem and B, have no problem with internal ports Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/173502-cant-see-harddrive/#findComment-1193228 Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormPCs Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Nice attempt at a save MR Assumption. If you know so much why don't you offer some advice? Yeah, I thought so.

Embio Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 not assumption, reasoning... Rudy the problem is that Snow doesn't have kexts for your onboard hard drive controllers. At the minute, we are still bizzarely not allowed to talk about Snow on Hacs here... I would give you the name of another site where there is lots of Snow on Hacs discussion, but I can't give the name because of lame rules. But if you were to google the words 'Mac' and 'Infinite' I'm pretty sure you'd find it 8-) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/173502-cant-see-harddrive/#findComment-1193436 Share on other sites More sharing options...
