Kevin87 Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Hello everyone, All these guides are great but I have a question about some sata drivers. I can run leopard 10.5.8 using a 100% vanilla with chameleon. The kext I need to use is a JMicron one. If I do not have this kext then the os will not load and it will just reboot the machine. I cant seem to find a kext that works with my motherboard for snow leopard. I tried using the same kext as I did for leopard but it does not work. My mother board is an ip35-e I believe it uses ICH9 but I am not sure. Graphics card is a 9600gt that works with EFI strings. And my processor is a Core 2 Quad 2.66 ghz. I cant remember if it was a Q6600 or Q6400. I believe the only reason I can not boot is because I dont have serial ata kexts that work with my machine. Is they anyone out there that has this motherboard and has gotten it to work? I tried booting with -v and also -x32 so I could try to troubleshoot but right after chameleon and all the Kexts scrolling by I see a brief black screen then a reboot. If someone knows a fix please let me know what it is. Thanks, Kevin87 I also forgot to add that I have no option in my motherboard bios to change the sata to ACHI. I saw that most people were using this method with some kexts to boot, but I do not have any options in the bios for ACHI.

Kevin87 Posted September 1, 2009 Author Share Posted September 1, 2009 I have tried every guide here and every single one does the same thing. It seems very strange. I have also tried yours. It really should work. I have followed your guide and all the others several times to make sure I wasn't missing anything and they all result in a reboot right after chameleon.

mormegil Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Isn't Jmicron the secondary controller? You should be using your ICH9 sata ports instead. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/183094-sata-question/#findComment-1248319 Share on other sites More sharing options...
