Straedom Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Hello everyone, I'm quite new to the osx86 scene but ive been looking into alot of information and decided to try Hazards 10.6.2 AMD client Server distro, Ive had no luck with installing due to the freezing right around to hdd boot scene... Let me give you my specs. Im running a Toshiba Satellite L555D-s7005 AMD Turion II Dual-Core Mobile M520 2.3 ghz 4.00GB ram 300GB Hd Partitioned half for windows 7 half for osx. ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Commands Ive Used rd=disk0s4 cpus=2 cpus=1 -f -x -v busration=20 platform=x86pc ive mixed and matched those up with no success at once i got stuck at still waiting for root device, but now it doesnt even go that far (I changed the fat32 partition to be boot after still waiting for root device) Honestly i dont know if im missing a step or possibly using a wrong distro, ive tried Iatoks s3 but no amd support is why i assume thats wrong.. also i dont have an ACPI setting in my bios for the power management.. And help or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks all ahead of time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sensemilla Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Which kexts do you have in /Extra/Extensions folder. Is PlatformUUID located there and what kind of Bootloader did you use? You should have NullCPUPowerManagment kext in /Extra/Extensions too, because you have no ACPI settings. Do you have set SATA to AHCI in bios settings.

Greetz sensemilla Thanks for the reply, I have my bios setting set to AHCI, By /Extra/Extentions folder Do you mean on my installation DVD? Im using Hazards 10.6.2 i also just attempted Kalyway 10.5.2 and it just reboots infinitely Thanks for the reply, I have my bios setting set to AHCI, By /Extra/Extentions folder Do you mean on my installation DVD? Im using Hazards 10.6.2 i also just attempted Kalyway 10.5.2 and it just reboots infinitely Just Explored my DVD and my Extra/Extensions folder is empty, this might be my problem. How do i get kexts in the iso ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sensemilla Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Hi again, you can try different bootloaders like [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] or efi empire google it. The next is you can try netbook installer found on http://www.kexts.com/ there you can find the necessary kexts too. It`s easier to create a bootable USB stick the tools you can find on kexts.com too. In this way you can add the kexts easily on the stick. Don`t forget to reapair Permissions.

Should i delete all old Kext from the folder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sensemilla Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 It`s better you test with a few kext like FakeSMC, PlatformUUID, NullCPU, ...! Then you will see in which case the kernel panics when you passed the hdd issue. After this search for the next solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straedom Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share Posted March 3, 2011 I got Some kext and everything setup (fakesmc.kext ALCinject.kext NullCPUPOWERManagement.kext and PlatformUUI.kext ) Now im getting the The following... Panic (cpu 0 caller 0x558993) Unable to Find Driver for this Platform: \"ACPI\".\n"@/SourceCache/xnu/xnu-1456.1.25/lokit/kernel/IOPlatformExpert.cpp:1389 Any idea?
