MacTester_s Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Good day. Few questions on installing OSX 10.6 on GA-G31M-S2L Could you help me with installing the Snow Leopard on this motherboard. All my attempts end with kernel panic. Used boot132 and usb hard. Any idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antwill Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Could you tell us what kernel panic you're getting? And also could you link to where you got your boot132 for SL from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacTester_s Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 Boot132 I've collected through this http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?dmmmzzndemo (SlimbuildGUI) Panic when the two species -x32 after USBF ... and at -x64 swears on HPET cpu. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadGhost Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Isn't HPET related to DSDT.aml? can someone confirm this? So do you use dsdt.aml? if not you can try DSDT Patche GUI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacTester_s Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 I tried and one and the second method. And in any case, KP. Any ideas? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk1nhead Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 check out this guide i made a few days back, not sure whats the difference of s2l and es2l but if you have a different hardware just change the necessary kext. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacTester_s Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 Thank you. Now I'll try ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacTester_s Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 to sk1nhd33t Thank you very much. For all your instructions to work. Even nvidia 9800 GTX + itself earned. There is only sound, but this is detail. =) PS. Sorry for my bad English =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk1nhead Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 glad that it worked for you. for sound try voodoo 32/64 for starters but do note that it has a problem after waking from sleep. i will post the guide here and edit it a few after the official launch of snow, for now let it be a beta guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swhay Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 to sk1nhd33t Thank you very much. For all your instructions to work. Even nvidia 9800 GTX + itself earned. There is only sound, but this is detail. =) PS. Sorry for my bad English =) I am also running this board as a second system. Try the attached zip file. Replace your dsdt.dsl in /Extra with the one in the zip file and put the ALC662.kext in /Extra/Extensions. Rebuild the Extensions.mkext in /Extra (if your using Chameleon 2).

johnlocke2342 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 @sk1nhd33t: I followed your tut many times, but I can't get Snow to install on my PC as it kernel panics on the 1st minute of the installation process. If you could help, thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you could help, thanks in advance! hi the guide is a bit old since i made that as soon as the GM? was released (snow post wasnt allowed here at that time), i tried redoing every step again just today from scratch on my machine but i never had a problem like yours, check your uuid's maybe you forgot something or create your own dsdt.. you can also try mix matching by removing uuid's on boot.plist, boot in 32/64 or try this new installer i made with just 2 kext from extensions .. again either of the 2 method boots without problems on mine..

MacTester_s Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 Good evening.

But .. in the System Preferences (Sound) .. sound is not displayed .. and therefore does not play music. Are there any thoughts on this? In what could be the problem? Thank you. PS.

Tommy2d Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Thanks for the kext and the dsdt file! I'll test it as soon as i get home, but since i have the exact same board this shouldn't be a problem. Does this dsdt also fix the ethernet part? It used to work in 10.5.2 but anywhere after some apple updates it stopped working. If this doesn't fix ethernet, what will ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penno64 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Hi Guys, I also have the GA-G31m and all is working well except the audio. I am unsure how to rebuild the Extensions.mkext in extra ??? Any help greatly appreciated. Kind Regards, Penno p.s. when I replace the dsdt.dsl in /Extra, my system no longer boots and requests poweroff etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamikaze2112 Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I also don't know how to rebuild the extensions.mkext in extra after replacing the files from the above zip file, I now have a sound icon, but no sound (could be in the wrong jack) and still no ethernet. any help is greatly appreciated, as this is the last steps to a perfect 10.6 install on a G31m-S2L EDIT: got network going by installing a D-Link DFE-538TX. Still no audio tho, tried all 3 jacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricky_kid Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I have the same board (the g31m-S2L) and have followed the same procedure for installing. However, I am having network issues. Is your networking all right? And what version of the bios are you using? (I have a suspicion that a newer bios version may fix the network problem I have, since I have the F2 version and it seems to be a very low level problem.)

ricky_kid Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I just wanna throw out there that the dsdt.aml included in the zip file in post 10 also contains Firewire and presumably something to help with my network problem as well. (It still goes wonky in 64 bit kernel mode, but who needs that? Apps still run in 64 so I don't see the need!) Thanks for sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Leper Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Does anyone have sound working in 64 bit mode? I have tried voodooHDA 64 bit and I get a sound icon, but no sound is actually played. I have tried the Gigabyte ALC662 kexts in and the ones mentioned in post 10 both in 32 and 64 bit mode. (The DSDT in post 10 simply causes my GA-G31M-S2L to kernel panic on boot). I see a lot of people having both success and failures trying to get sound on this board in snow leopard, anyone have any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

demented_angel Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I've tried the aforementioned process of installing the ALC662.Kext; However, It will not function. I'm using a Asus P5KPL-AM/PS board, Intel E5200, Geforce 8400GS any light on this situation would be greatly appreciated. edit: I get a KP at appleHDA.kext Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
