EP41-UD3L with 10.6

theBrave · September 14, 2009

I mainly followed the tutorial at LifeHacker to get to an complete install.

Items needed:

An 8GB-or-bigger USB thumbdrive
A working machine with OSX 10.5 or latter
The SnowLeopard DVD Installer (It only cost 29 $/€, so buy it, plus you get an Apple sticker)
A working computer with the EP41-UD3L mainboard (duh)

Now, read the previous LifeHacker article.

What changes:

Don't use (yet) Chameleon for the boot file, I didn't manage to boot properly using the RC3
Don't use the 889 kext.
Stop doing what is says before "Final Tweaks"
When creating the bootable USB key, use my DSDT.aml file.

The DSDT.aml fixes:

That the settings are corrupted at each boot
That the sound pane hangs / Now the soundcard is maked as builtin
The ethernet card shoul now be built-in
Sleep

What you obtain:

Maybe problems with graphics
No sound
Lot of "CFGetHostUUIDString: unable to determine UUID for host. Error: 35" errors everytime you type something on the console

Then:

Using the exact same steps than for the USB key, I installed the same 10.1 EFI bootloader on the harddrive.
Copy my DSDT.aml to /Extra

Then:

Using EFI Studio, add the EFI strings for your graphic card in /Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist

This fixes (at least for me, Fanless nVidia 8600 GT 512 MB):

Video acceleration + OpenGL

Then:

Using Kext Utility, install the LegacyHDA from the zip file

I used ./series of LegacyHDA 888 (ALC888)/4outs2ins HDA headphone/LegacyHDA.kext

Now the sound shoud work

Then:

Use one of the methods to solve the CFGetHostUUIDString from http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php?topic=250.0

Now I need you for:

I'm pretty sure that futher edits to the DSDT file could solve the sound problem without Kext (The Kext only contains a .plist file)
I didn't had the DSDT file until the end, so thinks could work better than advertised, tell me so

I combined your guide with the others, and I wrote it down on my blog

http://isaantariksa.wordpress.com/2009/11/...rst-hackintosh/ ...

your DSDT works well .. i just put the LegacyHDA.kext at E/E to make sound works .. so the installation is fully vanilla, not touch anything on S/L/E ...

sleep works well .. but with the help of sleepenabler.kext

Somehow i can´t get the sound working

I used the kext you provided in your guide but i still can´t choose an output-devise

antartika · November 20, 2009

hi fetos ...

did you also use his DSDT.aml ?

AFAIK DSDT.aml only = sound not working; AppleHDA.kext only = sound not working; DSDT.aml + AppleHDA.kext = sound working ..

Regards,

Yes i used his dsdt.aml file, its still in the extras folder.

I used the linked LegacyHDA.kext, should i rename it to AppleHDA.kext ?

antartika · November 21, 2009

Sorry, my bad .... I checked just now and it's LegacyHDA.kext here ... I mixed it up with my DG31PR configuration @office ..

these files inside E/E for EP41-UD3L

i guess my bios version is F4 .. not so sure about that ..

kind of strange with your condition ... already activate the sound @ BIOS ?

OK, i installed it again and again, the most sucessfull installation is with empire efi 1.01. I have both sound and full graphics etc.

But i can´t boot from the harddrive.

I tried everything i could find but nothing works for me.

What bootloader are using on this mobo?

antartika · November 24, 2009

Hmmmm strange enough for me ...

First thing first dude, after installing to harddisk have you installed any bootloader on harddisk ?

FYI I did try chameleon, PC-EFI and ES2L based bootloader all with success story ...

AFAIK you can boot from harddisk, if:

1. You set BIOS to boot from harddisk

2. You set boot sequence on BIOS correctly

3. Your harddisk have a bootloader

I got rid of the UUID error by using the kext below :

Platform UUID Kext

Hope it helps

PlatformUUID.kext.zip

If you're still having problems with sound on the EP41-UD3L then try the 2 kexts in the first post in this forum:

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=188349

worked first time for me after everything else had failed!

fetos · February 19, 2010

Tanks, i stayed with me Empire-EFI Installation and tried an older Version of Chameleon and it works flawless.

Can you please tell me the other extensions you used. I cannot get sleep to work, one way or another...

anyone, kindly please reupload theBrave DSDT.aml to another mirror site or send me to my e-mail ayangjibrut@gmail.com because thebrave site cannot be accessed at this time, maybe the site is suspended..

thanks!

I'm wondering wtf are people thinking when they upload files to their own soon-to-be-dead sites.

Good luck ..

Edited @05:51 PM:

confirmed ... dsdt works.

Sleep/wake, restart, shutdown all ok

still need LegacyHDA.kext in E/E for sound [i already patched AppleHDA.kext in /S/L/E so I don't know is there any relation this dsdt with an intact AppleHDA.kext in terms of working sound]

Now I have to learn how to activate speedstep in this rig and also have another rig @office to update [intel DG31PR].

Thanks a lot,

Hola MaLd0n,

I'll try your dsdt later today when the kids ceased using the rig .... currently I'm still trying to get under the hood of DSDT [to understand many new things ... hix ..]

Regards,

Hi,

thanks for sending me those files but frankly I'm quite satisfy with the current working setting ... which is:

* dsdt from you

* fakesmc.kext [from myhack1.1] and legacyHDA.kext at E/E

* patch /S/L/E/AppleHDA.kext coz Apple dropped support for ALC888 [makes my config not vanilla anymore]

# sleep/wake working, audio working

Just like a quote "don't change the winning team" ....

Regards,

+++sai sends
