UUID messages : Help needed : Nearly fully working OSX

Recommended Posts

HELP PLEASE my setup is

 

P6T SE BIOS 808 with 6gb RAM and followed the P6T SE guide in this forum precisely.

 

3 SATA Drives 1x1.5Tb split into 2 partions for SL and a backup[/font] and 2 raided via P6T for Win7

 

I am using a SSD card to boot into Chameleon to fire up the different partitions and OSX works fine along with Win 7

 

Ethernet, sound etc all working and upgraded to 10.6.4 as per my previous post.

 

Everything is fine accept when I boot my 2 OSX partitions are not mounted to the desktop, I get resource unavailable initialise messages.

 

I can use OSX no problems and can Finder to the drives no problem. Just the 2 message boxes and a load of UUID messages in the console such as

 

04/08/2010 20:09:50 fontworker[123] _CFGetHostUUIDString: unable to determine UUID for host. Error: 35

 

04/08/2010 20:09:24 iCal Helper[120] Unable to determine UUID for host. Error: 35 Resource temporarily unavailable

 

My com.apple.boot.plist file looks as follows.

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

<plist version="1.0">

<dict>

<key>Kernel</key>

<string>mach_kernel</string>

<key>Kernel Flags</key>

<string>boot-uuid=85DCFF94-2282-3389-BB72-D74360D5BF3F rd=*uuid arch=x86_64</string>

<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>

<string>yes</string>

</dict>

</plist>

 

This happened with the base 10.6 installation[/font] every time I did installs (about 10 of them) to perfect my technique using the guide. I hoped it would go away with the 10.6.4 upgrade.

 

Just to emphasis, I am not trying to use [font=-->

Ok was running RC4 of Chameleon and so took the boot file and replace the old one with the new one from the link (thanks) on the SSD card.

 

Also added the EthernetBuiltIn key and string to boot.plist everywhere I could find one. One the SSD card, in Extra and even in Library/preferences/systemconfiguration.

 

Well time machine works now :) :)

 

But I still get these stupid message boxes appearing on boot up complaining about resources not be available, initialise, eject or ignore. BUT THE UIID messages are now gone from the console and sudo commands :)

 

I get two of the boxes.

 

I am beginning to think they are to do with the empty slots on the asaka usb multicard reader when OSX fires up.

 

A bit of a pain, but I have a working system.

 

Many thanks all :(

Ok worked out the message boxes.

 

OSX is trying to mount my 2 raided drives for my separate Win7 boot and obviously can't recognise them due to the hardware raid table.

 

A bit of browsing reveals I can create a /etc/fstab file to add the UUID of the drives with a noauto option to stop them mounting at boot ;)

 

Will give it a go tonight :)
