Kurto2021 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I just got a Dell Latitude D620 and figured I would throw OSX on it. I am having some problems becasue the install seems to go through just fine but once I reboot I can hear the wonderful tune playing but my screen is black. I have tried using GMA 950 driver and EFI string and neither seems to get me going.

michaspoli Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 If you want to have a screen back - boot in single user mode and delete the Graphics.kext. boot with "-s" rm -rf /system/library/extensions/AppleIntelGMA* ##delete Intel Graphic kext rm -rf /system/library/extensions/NV* ##delete Nvidia Graphic kext rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/GeForce.kext rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/Ge*.kext rm -rf /system/library/extensions/ATI* ##delete Ati Graphic kext rm -rf /system/library/extensions.mkext After this - you should can boot and try to install the right kexts for gma.

apixx Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 When I do -s I have no keyboard. I tried to go in through the install and choose terminal but extensions.mkext exists but no Extensions folder External keyboard fixed it but files are read only I have got the same error with my MSI GX623. Install went fine. When I try to load MAC OS X after the apple loading screen I get a black screen with music playing. I tried booting with -s but it hangs after /root telling me my firewire is not good and it hangs. So I cant delete the graphics.kext. I only installed the Ati hd one. Using the iatkosv7 image. Thanks in advance. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/211060-iatkos-v7-black-screen/#findComment-1423110 Share on other sites More sharing options...
