Try just -v and let me know the last message that you are receiving...

 

The last message I receive above the solid block cursor is ACPI: System State [s0 S3 S4 S5] (S3)

 

Is that the the area you are referring to??

Do I remove the original and replace it with the fake on my flash drive? Or do I start the whole process over again and use the fake then??

 

Just remove the original one and then replace it with the FakeSMC 2.5....

I have installed kexts pack for ALC1200 (P5QL-EM) with Kext Helper b7

 

System Profiler shows : device ID:0X104382fe audio ID:12 Available Devices:(nothing else)

 

There's still no sound with my MAC OS 10.6.3

 

Somebody help?

Ok, I replaced the file and still received the same message. That was after there were four or five pages of "loading something bla bla" Here are some photos.

Have you enabled ACPI 2.0 in the Bios....if not then do it....

 

 

You can also try to just use three kexts and install..... FakeSMC.kext, NullCPUPowermanagement.kext and IOAHCIBlockStorageInjector.kext

I think the USB is not bootable....

 

Also I thin OSX can be installed on ATA Drive as I have included drivers for ATA in the package....But I have not tried it though

Hi! I created Partition On HDD (IDE) with OS X INSTALL (STEP 4) but when I set boot HDD is the same problem as on USB (black screen with "typing cursor". So I downloaded [url=&quot;http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/&quot;]#####[/url] and burned it on DVD.

Then I set boot from DVD and the [url=&quot;http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/&quot;]#####[/url] runs... Than I can select Partition with OS INSTALLATION and setup is working.. so I installed OS X on another partition using (GUID Partition Table becouse on MBR I can't install).

But when finished I restart the computer and start with "STEP 7".

Now with [url=&quot;http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/&quot;]#####[/url] i chose the partition that I have Installed OS X and when it starts loading it stoped becouse of error: IOSCSI PheripherialDeviceType 05: SetPowerState(0x6d42700) Timed out ...

 

Can u help me?

 

and in "step 7" I must boot the partition used in "step 6"? And It suposed to run OS X leopard and than in Snow Leopard I install the "myHackerInstaller" to make it bootable?
