nyolc8 Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 You need a dsdt.aml file for your mobo in your Extra/ folder. If you search for "patch dsdt" or "create dsdt", you'll find some topics about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KireD Posted August 16, 2011 Author Share Posted August 16, 2011 Thanks for the reply! I searched but i only found how to patch an existing and functioning DSDT file on MAC and i can't even boot. How can i make one and how i put it on the MAC files knowing my windows install doesn't access the MAC partition? Thanks! Derik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derik I highly recommend read this: http://aserebln.blogspot.com/search/label/Ubuntu It's the way I have been extracting DSDT and I have done it for 4 different computers. It easy but it take a little time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It easy but it take a little time. Hi! Thanks for the reply! But it has to be on Ubuntu? I mean, i could create a partition and install it, but I'd prefer not to. And it worked without problems on the 4 computers? Where they AMD? Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it worked without problems on the 4 computers? Where they AMD? Thanks!! You can download for free Ubuntu from the website All the procedures showed on the website I gave you can be made from the Live CD without do any installation, I also do it on that way so I don't need to install it for follow the steps. And nope, there were not AMD computers. I tried once on an AMD computer but I failed terribly, yet the problem with the AMD computer I tried was more related to the video card than the processor it self, so don't give up about it.

Thx again for the help! BUT it didn't worked.. It says there is no such file and generates an empty dsdt.aml on desktop. What should i do?

Derik well, thats quite weird. Are you sure the dsdt.aml is empty? You can post it so we can check it out. I suggest first to post ALL your computer specs, after that we can check it out or wait one of the gurus here can offer some help with that information, without that information we can do little but guess. Also, post which procedure are you using to instal SL: 1) is it a retail DVD? 2) are you using a distribution (such as iATKOS)? What you do after the installation is complete?. In the meanwhile you can check out here some thread related: http://www.google.com.mx/search?client=saf...cNuiwsALltIH3Bg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I'm not 100% sure it is empty, but when i try to decompile it, it says "Could not get table from the file" and also the file has 0 bytes.

KireD Posted August 20, 2011 Author Share Posted August 20, 2011 sorry didn't noticetry this? http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/univ...513-3_amd64.deb Wow thank you, now i got the dsdt.dsl file and apparently it will work. Gonna give it a try and then post the results! EDIT: I got the file but really don't know where and how to put it. Help here? ^.^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noam AA Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 hey man look i didn't read the hole thread till now just instruct you in how to extract i honestly don't know why you even get this message cause as far as i know DSDT override is not a MUST, especially for AMD since those applying only basic patches to their DSDT, though even then it not just a clean dsdt,it's one with some patches on it. (i could be wrong on all this, cause i have zero experience with AMD) anyway, if this will help, the file need to be either on root of osx partition (/), or on /Extra if you can't access your mac partition, you can try macdrive or something to read hfs from windows hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already managed to get the file... Now i need to put it on the Mac partition from Windows or Ubuntu and i can't find a program to do that. Already tried 3 programs and 2 failed to see the partition and one was only able to read it. No one knows a program to do that? (Write on Mac partition from Windows or Ubuntu) Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noam AA Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 already told you. there is MacDrive (i used it when was having windows) you also have paragon HFS+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KireD Posted August 21, 2011 Author Share Posted August 21, 2011 OK! So, i managed to put the file on the Mac partition (with "Paragon Hard Disk Manager", MacDrive wouldn't see the partition) and I think it worked, because now i get other error Now I get "Memory allocation error! Addr=0xdeadbeef, Size=0x0, File=pci_root.c, Line=88" IMAGE: http://goo.gl/JaJXv Thanks again for all that are trying to help and I'm waiting for a reply =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noam AA Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 the DSDT file weight 0 bytes, means there is nothing in it. something went wrong in the dsdt extraction i would suggest you to try out a windows live cd/usb with Everest ultimate to extract it, maybe will help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KireD Posted August 21, 2011 Author Share Posted August 21, 2011 Yeah I did the compilation again and noticed that I get 201 errors (all "Object is not accessible from this scope" errors) and my Terminal fills with errors. Also the file again has 0 bytes. So what should i do? Can a fix this Object not accessible or should i try it from windows - in this case, how i do it? Thanks! EDIT: I did that and Everest gave me a .bin file... Is that correct? Thx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noam AA Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 yup correct, now you can use iasl to decompile it either windows linux or mac, get IASL, and on terminal do the commend iasl -d path-of-dsdt.aml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KireD Posted August 21, 2011 Author Share Posted August 21, 2011 Same thing.. I decompile it to a .dsl file and when I compile it i get an empty .aml file and an incomplete .hex file and 201 errors on Terminal.
