Hi can you help me? I need a small tutorial how to install mac os x. I installed from USB drive exacly from there: http://lifehacker.com/5351485/how-to-build...start-to-finish and everything is ok. But if i will install this drivers 965P_DS4_Extra.zip got a kernel panic. Something is wrong.

 

here is my instalation step by step:

1) installation of mac os x retail (from usb drive)

2) install chameleon botloader

3)

3.1) extract 965P_DS4_Extra.zip

3.2) copy extensions and kextutility to desktop -> make a extensions.mkext

3.3) copy extensions folder and new extensions.mkext into Extra (in root of mac os drive)

3.4) use the EfiStudio to get my Geforce 8800 GT 512(G92) xml file => this file paste to com.apple.Boot.plist i think here is the problem, can anyone send here working com.apple.Boot.plist

4) Kernel panic !!!!

 

please help, what is wrong???

 

Thanks

 

Sorry for my english. :-)

 

btw: My motherboard is GA-965P-DS3 (but its almost the same like DS4)

In my case, both EHCI and UHCI are already recognized as built in but I still dont get wake by mouse and/or keyboard

By the way, my keyboard is the old apple one and it is recognized as USB 1.1

 

You should compare your .dsl, with some posted here UHCI/EHCI Built in with dsdt fix . (I've a USB 2.0 keyboard, and it's not working. USB 1.1 should).

 

On another side: have you got any idea why a GFX DSDT entry which works on a DSDT.aml if copied and pasted onto your DSDT.aml without graphic section stops working correctly? And by this I mean that at time I lose one of the screens (dual dvi) and QE/CI...

 

Could you post your DSDT.dsl, i'll take a look.

 

3.4) use the EfiStudio to get my Geforce 8800 GT 512(G92) xml file => this file paste to com.apple.Boot.plist i think here is the problem, can anyone send here working com.apple.Boot.plist

 

You paste the whole .xml ?

 

You only need to paste the HEX string.

For each USB device, just add/change the code in RED.

 

Device (USB0)
		{
			Name (_ADR, 0x001D0000)
			Method (_S3D, 0, NotSerialized)
			{
				If (LEqual (OSFL, 0x02))
				{
					Return (0x02)
				}

				Return (0x03)
			}

			Name (_PRW, Package (0x02)
			{
				0x03, 
				One
			})
		}

 

 

Device (USB0)
           {
               Name (_ADR, 0x001D0000)

               {

Innerz: you rock :)

It now wakes up on both keypress from keyboard and double click of the mouse! and if I press the power button it goes into sleep..brilliant!

 

Moreover, I was also finally able to add my video card to the DSDT and get QE/CI working together with full dual DVI support...yeaaaaaaaah :D

 

So I can confirm: this DSDT works fine also for a GA-965P-DS3P v3.3

 

Great work!

Ok...one minor thing: now the system does not go to sleep automatically. I can put it to sleep, but it is not able to sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity (from the configuration on system energy). It was before the last change

 

On a general topic: it is possible to know if your card has QE/CI enabled: the field is called "Rotation:supported" in snow leopard

 

A stupid question now instead: has anybody had any problem with the system working fine and then doing a sudo reboot from console and the system halts afterwards? I dunno how to exlpain it better but basically it was really...working and rebooting with no problems up to one moment when it instead hangs after having found the wireless card and loaded the NV50HAL...I have 2 installations (which are dd clones of each other) on 2 different hdds: one was used to test changes to the DSDT.aml before applying them. Both of them are stopping at the same point: so i dont think it could be software issue

Try with just :

 

Device (USB0)
{
Name (_ADR, 0x001D0000)
Method (_S3D, 0, NotSerialized)
{
If (LEqual (OSFL, 0x02))
{
Return (0x02)
}

Return (0x03)
}

Name (_PRW, Package (0x02)
{
0x03,
[color="#FF0000"]0x03[/color]
})
}

 

The remove part is useless i think.

You paste the whole .xml ?

Hi, thanks for reply. Now works my 8800GT 512 perfectly.

 

But this is not main problem. I installed chameleon with netkas boot. Then copy DSDT and com.apple.Boot.plist from your Extra folder to / and edit com.apple.Boot.plist for my graphic card. If i use extensions.mkext from my usb snow leopard installation system boots up (without audio and network), but if i use your extensions.mkext (generated from kext utility) i got this screen: http://img171.imageshack.us/i/dsc0001tw4.jpg/

 

i made my installation usb exacly like here: http://lifehacker.com/5351485/how-to-build...start-to-finish

 

What i make wrong?? Where is the problem.

 

I dont understand this:

 

Don't forget either to add your UUID in com.apple.Boot.plist and in the "info.plist" of "PlatformUUID.kext"

 

again sorry for my english .... please help me

 

my mainboard is GA-965p-DS3 but there is diference only in ICH8(DS3) and ICH8R(DS4)

There were some people who recommended installing an injector, but I replaced the GEForce.kext in /S/L/E with one from 10.6.1 and all works as it should in x64.

 

Hi! I have same problem, but I dont have GEForce.kext from 10.6.1. Is it possible, you can upload it to somewhere?

Thanks for your DSDT! works great with my GA-965P-DS3.

But there are 2 things that don't seem to work fine.

 

1. My internal SATA drives have a orange icon

2. About this Mac shows "Intel Core 2 Solo" but i have a Core 2 Duo

 

someone knows a solution for that ?

  • 3 weeks later...

Just come across this thread and been able to successfully install and run Snow Leopard on my v1.0 GA-965P-DS4. Thanks guys!

 

All seems to work but sleep, auto sleep kills the screen but the fans keep spinning, whilst forcing sleep from the menu causes a machine that doesn't wake.

 

Is this typical for the 965-DS4 or are others able to get their Hacks to sleep?
