Swad Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) Hi Friends, I'm upgrading my 10.6 install to 10.7. Was able to complete the installation. (I searched for solutions and tried a couple, but nothing worked) When I boot directly from the HD, it hangs on "Verifying DMI pool data." (I did have two other errors when booting from the USB, but I'm now able to boot, which means the title of the post needs updating!) I've seen others with this issue, but I haven't found any good solutions. BIOS settings are set to: Optimized, Boot Priority to CD/DVD, SATA to AHCI mode, and set HPET to 64-bit mode. My system (almost identical to the Lifehacker post): GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 EVGA GeForce 9800 GT (512-P3-N973-TR) TRENDnet NIC Thanks in advance! Edited November 27, 2011 by Swad Solved two problems, down to one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpoppa206 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Check your cables. Or the board. PS, you haven't even hit the bootloader for OSX yet at this stage, so its not a Mac issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noam AA Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 why don't you do a clean lion installation with your DSDT? this is very common MBoard you have there across the osx86 community, i just think that DSDT can be far more easy and stable then muiltibeast.
