x111 Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Hello everybody! I recently crossflashed my P5K SE to P5KR to get AHCI enabled on my mobo. After configuring BIOS correctly, I boot with a DVD with [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] on it. I get to the screen where I can see the [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] disk and my 2 SATA harddisks (they are in SATA slots 3 and 4, for some reason BIOS doesn't recognize them from slots 1 and 2). I eject [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] and put in the OSX installation disc. After I hit f5 one time, the [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] disappears. After I hit f5 another time, another disc appears on the right side of harddisks, but the text place below disc images that normally tells the name of the disk distords somehow and [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] crashes, I cannot but boot. Here's a photo of that: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8798004/2011-02-23%2002.01.49.jpg Then I burned a DVD with EmpireEFI on it, and booted with that. I again get to the disc selection screen, and after I eject EmpireEFI and put in the OSX installation dicsand hit f5, I can choose my OSX installation disc. But after I choose that and hit enter, I get kernel panic. Here a photo of that: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8798004/2011-02-23%2001.59.04.jpg I'm dying to get this to work but have no idea what to do next. I have removed all unnecessary PCI-cards and USB-drives from my computer. The curious thing is that without [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] or EmpireEFI, I'm able to get to Mac installation just by booting with OSX installation disc. Before crossflashing (so I wasn't able to set SATA configuration to AHCI, but only IDE), I was able to install OSX with no problems. I just couldn't start it after booting after installation, it just gave me kernel panic. After crossflashing I'm still able to get to OSX installation but in the "disk utility" I cannot see any of my harddisks. My computer specs are: -Asus P5K SE (with P5KR bios now) -Intel E6750 processor -9800GT -2GB of RAM -External Samsung DVD-writer/reader -2 SATA harddisks (in slots 3 and 4) On another SATA disk I have Windows 7 installed but I'm unable to boot to that too after crossflashing my BIOS. Can anyone please guide me from here, what could be the problem, is there a problem with my hardware or am I doing something wrong? I followed this guide http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2010/04/ibo...ac-os-x-on.html and downloaded [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] from the link at step 2. My installation disk is 10.6.2. Thank you so much for any help! ps. I read somewhere that it might be helpful to try install with -v -x so I did that in EmpireEFI (also in EmpireEFI some part of the screen is distorted same way like [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] but I'm still able to hit enter on the disc) and I get this kind of screen (kernel panic) (if the information on the screen is helpful, I can try to get more of that for a new photo): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8798004/2011-02-23%2002.39.56.jpg Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/249064-iboot-and-empireefi-crash-before-install/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
