metramo Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Hello, I am stuck with several aspects of my Hackintosh. I think some of the questions are real FAC questions 1. I'm trying to get the HD3000 graphics to work. I have several graphics kexts labelled H3000, AppleIntelHDgraphics, etc, etc - Is newer most likely better (I can see the revision in the plist file ? - Should I remove the ones which seem not necessary like HD4000 or GMA350 next on my HD3000 equipped system (can I just add extension .old to disable them? - After modifying I understood the I have to clear caches, must I also reboot ? - What is the advantage of using the /Extra directory instead of the /System/Library/Extensions directory ? 2. What is "better" using kexts or obtaining a more complete dsdt file. It seems that the dsdt file is just a configuration file to make mac OS use the specific hardware I have 3. I tried to boot with -v, but the printouts pass by too fast. Is there a boot switch to make pauses, boot -v ! more ? 4. I tried to download (and pay for) Mountain Lion, but the App store just goes back saying "come back later". What is this? Am I forced to piracy ?
