*FIXED* Lion on P6T Deluxe V2 + 4870X2

[vmaraccini]

Hello friends,

I've just managed to install OSX Lion on my computer, in fact I'm typing from it right now (YAY!)

Problem is, I can't manage to get it to recognize my Audio device, and can't get any acceleration from my 4870X2... It only sees 3MB of memory there...

 

Specs:

Core i7 920 (Using all cores)

P6T Deluxe V2 (Intel LGA1366 Platform / X58 chipset)

4870X2 from ATI

6GB of RAM (Boots fine)

Audio is ADI® AD2000B

 

AHCI HDD where Lion is installed

I'm using chameleon RC5 with the kexts:

ATY_Init.kext

Marvell88E8056.kext (Network, works like a charm)

IOAHCIBlockStorageInjector.kext

AHCIPortInjector.kext

fakesmc.kext

AppleHDA.kext

 

The installation was a hybrid method from http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=260594 , and I used an USB device to boot the installation utility with the kexts mentioned above. Then, just installed chameleon on the drive and copied the kexts back.

 

What to do? Should I be looking for some EFI strings?

 

Thanks in advance.

Also, thank you for the great support! The community is awesome!

 

/* EDIT: NEARLY SOLVED */

So, I managed to get the QE/CI by using the awesome DSDT Auto-Patcher tool (http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=235523) Thanks to MaLd0n (Brasil!!)

AND netkas' exotic patch for Lion (http://netkas.org/?p=854)

 

The only problem is that only one monitor works (only the the port further away from the PCI-E slot), which is a bit weird.. Also, it gets recognized as a 4800, not 4870X2.

 

The sound worked fine with the VoodooHDA.kext after deleting the AppleHDA.kext from the extensions folder.

 

Pretty happy already

Great to hear!

 

Does it still work as you have hoped it to do?

 

I'm looking for the kext for the network. I have not been able to find it yet.

I used [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] (tonymacosx86) installation and everything almost worked as supposed...

Just the network having problem.. (even two screens setup working ((Geforce)) )

But as said.

 

I'm interested in to know if this is working in the long therm as well...
