comatron Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 hello there, im about to buy this LENOVO Z360 http://www.notebooksbilliger.de/lenovo+z36...b+platte+nvidia ... but it would be nice to hear some experiences if any of you got this machine. the specs are pretty nice and it looks a bit like a macbook pro ... the i5 version is one of the cheapest i5 solutions in 13" notebooks. i would like to know if AHCI is present in bios (efi) and if the nvidia, the sound, the wlan, BT and so on is "fixable" the way i know it. i had some hackbooks so im no complete noob - i just wanna hear some of your experiences / thoughts about that thing got this thing ... VERY nice thing but no osx 86 runnin yet. i tried to install 10.6.3 retail via [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] but that thing ended in kernel panics. then i installed retail 10.6.3 on the internal HD by connecting it to a real mac via usb. installed update 10.6.5 and tried myhackinstaller and [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] - with no luck. the b*tch is booting (-x -v) until this points: launchctl: please convert the fallowing to launchd : ... systemShutdown false Waiting for DSMOS ... Previous Shutdown Cause: 0 FakeSMC: key info not found MSDS, lenght - 6 ACPI-SMC_PlatformPlugin: start - waitForService(resourceMatching(AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement) timed out DSMOS has arrived FakeSMC: key not found BEMB, lenght - 1 here it stops doin anything. using vanilla kernel and NO gfx enabler (gfx disabler to force vesa does the same error) so does anyone have an idea? i guess i found the problem: Intel® Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d) No Intel® Trusted Execution Technology No AES New Instructions No so - this is it ...

asapreta Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 These parameters can't be changed, right, so it was a no-go for OSX86? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/237160-lenovo-z360-core-i53/#findComment-1601013 Share on other sites More sharing options...
comatron Posted December 14, 2010 Author Share Posted December 14, 2010 THERE IS SOME PROGRESS - some good / some bad. i hope one of the gurus may help here - cause its a NICE notebook: - you can boot the RETAIL 10.6.3 with NAWCOMS MOD CD (USE MODBIN KERNEL!) http://blog.nawcom.com/?p=446 you have to uncheck everything you can! (also all the nawcom mods provided) - after install boot again with the dvd and just chose your HD (automaticly with legacy kernel) - now install 10.6.5 and DONT reboot - copy the attached dsdt.aml (THANX TO ASCHAR) to desktop - use [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] and install: http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2010/02/mul...stallation.html DSDT USER USB REWIND TO 10.6.3 (to have usb in 10.6.5) NULLCPUPOWERMANAGEMENT - now you have vanilla with only 2 kexts loaded: fakesmc and nullcpupowermangtment (thats nice) -> now - you can boot vanilla kernel until DSMOS has arrived - then the screen will kinda freeze without panic and the HD will load on ... thats all for now ... the DEV ID of the nvidia is: 0a70 - the DEV ID of the intel HD graphic: 0046 the build in WIFI is: AR9285 and this IS compatible looking at this post: http://osx86.co/f36/atheros-ar9285-0x002b1...-leopard-t6662/ maybe one can do a DSDT fix for that one ... would be cool also in the attachment: a version of chameleon with the DEV ID 0a70 compiled in the GFX enabler section (thanx again, ASCHAR) - but i dont know if this did anything to move forward ... dsdt.zip rev656with_new_nv_id_0a70.zip Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/237160-lenovo-z360-core-i53/#findComment-1602409 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exo± Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Hey, it would be really cool if you'd update this thread as soon as you found something out. I got a Lenovo Z360, too (but the i3 version), and it would be awesome if Snow Leopard worked with it Thanks!
