aditya_t90 Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Waiting for root device can be caused by many problems. Try this When you see the Darwin Bootloader, press F8 Then highlight the OSX partition or drive with the up-down arrows.(you do not need to do this if there is one drive/partition). Then at the boot: prompt, type "rd=diskXsY -v" without the quotes and replace X with the disk number and Y with partition number. You can find the X and Y values in the list after pressing F8 above. It will be shown as something similar to For the above image you will be typing "rd=disk0s2 -v" without the quotes and press the Enter key. You should now move one step closer to a hackintosh. Tellme what happens next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
