lovelyzoo Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I'm attempting to install Lion from a USB flash drive using MaLd0n's guide here: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=256729 At the moment I'm seeing the following errors are dumped repeatedly on the terminal: ApplePS2Keyboard: Unexpected acknowledge from PS/2 controller. ApplePS2Controller: Timed out on mouse input stream. Note that I'm using a PS/2 keyboard and a USB mouse. I need to use this configuration because the Gigabyte board seems to have a problem handling both a USB keyboard and USB flash drive similtaneously. The following thread is by a user that is having the same problem: http://www.tonymacx86.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1521 and the response is to install VooDooPS2Controller from here: http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php/topic,235.0.html The instructions on that page say Loadable from /Extra/Extensions.mkext I can find this folder on the USB drive but I don't understand what to do with the .pkg file to make it loadable from the mkext. Can anyone explain to me what to do?

lovelyzoo Posted December 8, 2011 Author Share Posted December 8, 2011 I think that I've sorted this out. I downloaded unpkg and dropped the .pkg file into its window. The contents was duly delivered in a directory alongside the .pkg. I then drilled to voodoops2controller/VoodooPS2Controller.kext and copied this to the folder Extra/Extensions on the flash drive. Could someone confirm if the following is correct? I opened Extra/org.Chameleon.Boot.plist and modified it to read like so: <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>-f -v npci=0x2000</string> As I understand it this will pass these flags to the bootloader. The -f flag will cause Extensions.mkext to be rebuilt at boot time, thus incorporating the contents of Extra/Extensions.
