Giulio. Posted August 3, 2012 Author Share Posted August 3, 2012 Booting with modcd? Ah, and in the bios there isn't a menu to switch to ahci mode. I'm waiting for a bios mod, but i don't think it will come out, is possible to make the retail working anyway?

Foxic Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Do you have RAID support in your BIOS? If so, set it to RAID (this automatically uses the AHCI standard) but don't set up a RAID array. OS X doesn't support hardware RAID. If not you can modify the OSInstall package. OS X works fine in IDE mode, you just have to set a few things differently (though I don't know what exactly).
