iAtkos s3 v2 grub dual boot with Ubuntu 10.10

[absolutezero1287]

I managed to install iAtkos s3 v2 on my Lenovo Ideapad Z560 but when I try to boot into OS X from grub my laptop reboots. I did some research on this but I haven't really found any concrete answers to my problem.

 

My specs are as follows:

• Intel Core - i5 540M CPU
  
• 4 GB DDR3
  
• NVidia Geforce 310M
  
• 500 GB SATA HDD (bios set to AHCI)
  
• RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI-E Ethernet controller (Realtek)
  
• nVidia Corporation High Definition Audio Controller
  
• Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio
  

 

The install appeared to go smoothly. The only thing I did differently was that I did not install a bootloader. I use Grub2 as my bootloader. I even changed my partition table from MBR to GPT and added a BIOS boot partition.

 

Below is the grub menu entry for OS X. I think I may have done this bit wrong.

menuentry "OS X 10.6.5" {
       insmod hfsplus
       set root=(hd0,2)
       multiboot /boot
}

 

My partition table as reported by parted:

 

root@satori:~# parted -l
Model: ATA WDC WD5000BEVT-2 (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 500GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B

I'm stumped as to what the problem could be. If I am missing any important information then don't hesitate to ask me.

[absolutezero1287]

Update: I changed the boot entry and tried using the default ones given by `update-grub`

The same issue happens. I don't see anything. I just see a black screen and it reboots. Please help. I have tried searching and can't really find any answers to my questions.

[absolutezero1287]

Update: I tried using the [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] CD to boot into OS X and I at least got past a black screen and blinking cursor. However, I ran into a kernel panic. The error message went something like this:

 

panic(cpu 0 caller 0x2ab790): "Version mismatch between Kernel"

.

.

....lots of addresses

.

.

Kernel Extensions in backtrace (with dependencies):

sk.triaxis.kext.SleepEnabler(1.0.0)@0x530cd000 -> 0x530cefff

 

I'm guessing that this means that I should reinstall without the Sleep Enabler kext. Anyone want to confirm or deny my suspicions?

 

Kernel Panic <--see pic of kernel panic here!

When you are booting up you need to use this bootflag:

 

busratio=19

 

Check it here:

http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2010/01/int...processors.html

 

I am not sure how you update your GRUB Bootloader to have this extra flag.

 

Cameleon Bootloader (in OSX) does it quite nicely.

Cameleon Bootloader (in OSX) does it quite nicely.

 

I've tried with the busratio=19 flag. I've tried every combination of the following:

-v -x busratio=19 maxmem=2048

 

I still get kernel panics. I tried reinstalling without the offending .kext (sleepEnabler) but now it seems that another kext is to blame for an entirely new kernel panic. It was something along the lines of AppleHDA. I have Linux as my primary OS so I can easily access my OS X partition.

 

What do I have to modify in order to get OS X to boot? Do I have to add/remove kexts?

 

EDIT:

I reinstalled and booted with the following flags: -v -x busratio=19 maxmem=2048

The end result wasn't a kernel panic. Instead I got a reboot loop.

 

Before the reboot, OS X seems to load everything just fine. At the end I get the following error message:

 

efi_inject_get_devrop_string null trying stringdata

No SMBIOS replacement found

Patched DMI table

No DSDT replacement available. Leaving ACPI data as is

Starting Darwin X86

 

I will try again in verbose without the safemode flag to see what happens.

[absolutezero1287]

Update: I reinstalled and this time used some very conservative options at the iAtkos customize screen. It works but certain buttons on my keyboard won't work and my laptop's touchpad is unresponsive. I'm guessing that I need to try out different kexts. Any advice/software for adding/removing kexts?

[absolutezero1287]

Update: I removed the VoodooPS2 kext and added the standard apple kext. I still have to boot into OS X with the busratio=19 flag. I use [url=&quot;http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/&quot;]#####[/url] or the iAtkos CD to accomplish this. I think I can get Grub2 to boot Chameleon (chainloading) but I'm not 100% sure. Anywho, I seem to have OS X up and running quite nicely. It doesn't detect my keyboard (fully) so I may switch kexts for that.

 

Another issue is the sound. My sound card is an NVidia sound card. Below is the output from lspci

Other than the issues that I will most likely fix myself OS X is running well. I have one question, though. What benefit(s) is/are there to making my own custom DSDT?

[absolutezero1287]

Update: I booted into OS X using grub2. Grub2 accepts the same options as chameleon. However, when I tried to use the custom kernel I got an error saying that it wasn't 64-bit. So I had to add the maxmem=2048 flag.

 

Sound and networking still aren't working. I have the information on them but I just don't know how to use it. Any advice?

[areskz]

How did you customized the install to make it work? Because once I installed it (using busratio=16 flag), I cannot boot to it. busratio flag doesn't work for some reason. And yes, also verbose mode shows that everything is going okay, and then I got same error messages as you did.

 

I'm using Lenovo Y560 laptop, i3 CPU, ATI 5730M video. This video is now supported in 10.6.7, but my iAtkos S3 v2 is 10.6.3, may it be a cause?

 

And one more thing: could you please show your current grub OSX entry? and where you put it? menu.lst is gone, seems like custom entries are now stored in /etc/grub.d/40_custom file.
