chrisgnv Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 UPDATE: Fixed the problem. If anyone is having similar problems as I was having, place your /Extra/Extensions/ folder in your Boot OS X volume (partition 3 of your first RAID drive). I have searched but not found anyone talking about software RAID and this board. Has anyone successfully managed to run Software RAID on the Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P? My board is working flawlessly right now running on a single drive, but using the software RAID method in the sticky (and aquamac's) and using Super Duper to clone my install to the RAID, I get HPET errors followed by a kernel panic from AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement. This kext is not a problem on my single drive, and if I remove it from the RAID install, the boot will hang instead of panic. Anyone run this board and software raid successfully and have some tips? I used to run hardware RAID on Vista and would really like to run my Raptors in RAID here on OSX.

chrisgnv Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 maybe this.... That is the guide I followed, but I was having kernel panics with AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement and if I deleted that, it would just not load the loginwindow.app. However.... Figured it out! I needed to put my Extra folder in my Boot OS X volume (for me, disk0s3). I used the pause button on my keyboard during the initial boot to see if it was loading my Extensions, and it was not. This is why I had the AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement kernel panic, and if I deleted that, it would just not load the login window. Additionally, I had to use DSDT Patcher GUI to place a dsdt.aml file in my Boot OS X volume. For anyone having trouble like mine, at least for me, the /Extra/Extensions/ folder would not be loaded when placed in the main RAID volume, only in the Boot OS X volume.
