For [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url], you have to enable "BIOS EHCI Hand-Off" and change USB mode to "FullSpeed". Install a bootloader of your choice and use my "Extra" folder. To get working sound, you have to replace "/System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext" with my one. Not working: - You get a removal warning if usb stick/disk is plugged-in during sleep (but USB is "build-in" and i tested several DSDT mods. i think its a hardware/Bios issue) - There aren't any good drivers for wifi. i replaced my card with an Atheros AR5BXB72 About 40-48°C in this case with this heatpipes... zotac_ionitx_p_e_v3.zip Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/248118-guide-zotac-ionitx-p-e-and-os-x-snow-leopard/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

iba21 Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Anyone tried OS X Lion GM? Thank you! i think it will work normally like snow leopard, if you do a fresh install of snow leopard, it works good with stock kernel and kext Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/248118-guide-zotac-ionitx-p-e-and-os-x-snow-leopard/#findComment-1708357 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sledgehammer89 Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Ok, I got a spare harddisc... - installed Lion GM with my MacBook to an external USB (S-ATA drive) - copied /Extra to Lion HD - installed new Chameleon (2.0-RC5 1138) Result: Lion booted, but no Audio I replaced AppleHDA.kext with the AppleHDA.kext from the first post, which works with Snow Leopard. Lion booted but I have no USB. Replaced AppleHDA.kext with the original one, but have no USB anymore. Will do all steps again this week and enable SSH to get access to the log files.

sledgehammer89 Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 nice what kext are you using? I use all the files from first post. I have problems with USB (not working) when using AppleHDA.kext from first post. Even VoodooHDA won't work (no USB too). If I replace it with the original AppleHDA.kext USB will work, but have no sound. Edit: Now I copied back the orig. AppleHDA.kext again and booted Lion without problems. Now I'm on Lion GM! Even sleep will work, but I've no sound. It's really sad... Edit2: Back to Snow Leopard. I got a CMOS reset, sometimes it won't boot, sleep will not always work and I hear from time to time access to my DVD drive (no disc in drive). I bought this "Hackintosh" because I can install fast, big and cheap 3.5" drives. Maybe Apple will help with the new Mac Mini with Thunderbolt and external Thunderbolt drives.

AFTER TURN OFF BIOS COMES TO FACTORY SETTING if you find a kext witch can help us with this "stop" issue, you'll be helpfully Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/248118-guide-zotac-ionitx-p-e-and-os-x-snow-leopard/#findComment-1713115 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sledgehammer89 Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Thank you for the files, but no, it doesn't work. AppleHDA.kext from Snow Leopard can't work because of other API calls as I read in other posts. Bios problem could be related on AppleRTC.kext as I read in other posts. Maybe we should wait a bit if someone publish working kexts. It's not that bad for the first try.

ab___73 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 10) all works.. except stop function What do you mean by stop function? Does it shutdown by selecting shutdown in the menu? Does it Restart using menu? Does it Sleep using menu? I'm thinking of updating but won't until shutdown/restart/sleep functions work. BTW thanks for the guide. - AB Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/248118-guide-zotac-ionitx-p-e-and-os-x-snow-leopard/#findComment-1719006 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZodiacQ Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Hi, I also have a Zotac IONITX-P-E motherboard at home, which is running xbmc on linux at the moment. I was planning on reïnstalling it with mac os x, to use it for 3 things: - Itunes home sharing - Plex Media Server - Plex Media Center I was wondering if you were running plex media center (and maybe plex media server) and how well it was running. Tnx. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/248118-guide-zotac-ionitx-p-e-and-os-x-snow-leopard/#findComment-1881283 Share on other sites More sharing options...
