midian Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Hello there! I just installed the new iCloud update for Lion. But now the boot Process stops at "PCI Configuration begin". I already found out that it might be a problem with the graphic card kext. So obviously, the new lion update just replaced the kext i used before. I now have the idea of taking the old extra Folder ( The one that worked with 10.7.1 - i made a copy of this before updating ) and replace it with the existing folder of my current lion installation. Is that the right idea? and - how do i install the extra folder? do i just have to copy/paste and delete the other folder before ? Or is there an installation tool where i can choose my existing extra folder to install? Thanks for any suggestions =) Best regards, Malte My Configuration: Cpu: Intel Core i7 920 Gpu: Nvidia 460 gtx MB: GB ex58-ud4p No working operation system but i have the possibility to access the lion Hard drive with my MacBook via Usb Adapter.

midian Posted October 29, 2011 Author Share Posted October 29, 2011 okay, PCI Configuration fixed for now. But Pc won't boot anyway - it always stucks on "Kernel is LP64" ( Screenshot attached ) Does anyone know what that means ? ( i am missing the old "classic" kernel panic, where you always could see what kext was exactly causing the problem ) Thanks!

midian Posted October 30, 2011 Author Share Posted October 30, 2011 Thanks! Ok, i tried like a billion combinations of different bootloaders and kexts. It seems to me that when everything is likely ok - i mean, no KP or other kext conflicts - it ends up showing only " Calling registerService" and stops. Any ideas?

midian Posted October 30, 2011 Author Share Posted October 30, 2011 Ok - i have it! Here is what i did: Well, i accepted the fact that my Lion installation doesn't want to work anymore. i took another HDD, connected it to my Macbook. I installed Lion with the Installation app from the appstore, then downloaded a custom DSDT for my MB from tonymac's Homepage, installed it with the realtek network driver via [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url], then i installed the new chimera boot loader ( 1.6 ), plugged the HDD back in and VOILA! What i noticed is that when you re-Download your purchased Mac OS X Lion Installer you don't get 10.7 but 10.7.2 So after the installation i did not have to update, everything went fine: Facetime, iCloud, Internet, Graphics, all working perfectly. The only thing i don't have installed is an Audio Kext, but i don't need that. Cheers! P.S.: Another Hint: If anybody is trying the same as i did and gets a working Lion installation, DONT USE the migration tool with your previous, not working installation - its a bad idea!
