Bitcore, which kernel are you using?

 

You have to use the name of the kernel as a boot flag, did you do it? I.e.: if you're using AnV's latest kernel, you'll have to use the boot flag amd_kernel before typing arch=x86_64 and the other boot flags.

 

Best regards!

 

P.S.: and edit your signature so it has your exact specs, like iFire said.

I always boot with amd_kernel as flag. i do not have a mach_kernel on it so if i boot without amd_kernel it just says "cant find mach_kernel" ;)

Hey! back on Lion, trying to get 64-bit with Itz shanes latest build. First boot I had a KP on AppleRTC, so I disabled it, now after a -f boot I got a KP on AppleOnboardPCATA...however when I look in my Extensions folder, there is no such kext?

 

Alright pictures. This one is normal boot. (with -f)

This is with safe mode(and -f)

It seems im stuck on FakeSMC and this AppleOnboardPCATA(which sometimes is AppleOnboardPCATARoot)

 

Ive tried a newer FakeSMC to no avail...and like I said I can not find an AppleOnboardPCATA kext, nor a plugin in kexts like AppleACPIFamily and such. Any ideas?

I have no plugins inside FakeSMC, Thanks for the answer though!

IOATAFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns maybe...

[s]sudo find /System/Library/Extensions -type F -name AppleOnboardPCATA*[/s]
[s]sudo find /Extra/Extensions -type F -name AppleOnboardPCATA*[/s]

EDIT:

it's  f  (lower-case) 
and add  /Volumes/osx_hdd_name/  before the full path (/S/L/E & /E/E)

sudo find /Volumes/osx_hdd_name/System/Library/Extensions -type f -name AppleOnboardPCATA*
sudo find /Volumes/osx_hdd_name/Extra/Extensions -type f -name AppleOnboardPCATA*

Checking now, thanks @Mac_carol I get an output of "find: -type: F: unknown type

IOATAFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns maybe...

 

I also checked there, none found. I found you made a SL AppleATIATA kext for 64-bit, would that be something I would need with my ATI chipset?

If it's not AHCI you can use it, otherwise DSDT edit is preferable...

Ah, I am using AHCI. My board has...issues with DSDT, but I believe I have it..."working" so I can always try enabling it(i have it disabled because I saw no difference with it enabled)

 

EDIT: enabled my DSDT, no change. I might not have it patched right. Where would I find a ATI AHCI patch?

oops sorry... it's f (lower-case)

 

and also try to add: /Volumes/Lion_hdd_name/ before the full-path

 

Thanks, I did that. I take it if it doesnt find anything it will just show a new line waiting for input? because its not showing anything. I tried it again to no avail.

Modify the SATA section like I did for someone in "Thoughts about Mountain Lion on AMD".

Also add DTGP function

Install iasl and use following command to compile it:

iasl -tc DSDT.dsl

Enable AHCI.

Put new DSDT.aml in /Extra

You should have HD working then and have it recognized like an Apple AHCI used controller ;)

I found your DSDT you provided...I believe it was to The Connactic as the file is labled DSDT_theconn_fixed.zip. So you want me to use this DSDT? well no thats stupid, you want me to reference it? as in copy everything in the Device (SATA) and overwrite whats under my Device(SATA)

No, add the _DSM method of SATA to your own and add the DTGP function.

Then recompile it and use that one...

Sorry I am not so knowledgeable with DSDT edits

 

I did what you said, added the _DSM to my DSDT and the DTGP. Still no change, KP with FakeSMC and dependency:com.apple.iokit.ioacpifamily

 

would you like a screenshot?

add the _DSM part of SATA to your SATA part.

Also add DTGP

Sorry for the confusion, I am using ItzShanes Lion version of your kernel with your .diffs

 

I am using 10.7.5 which they are all saying I should be using.

 

EDIT: tried booting using -f again, this time no KP but it gets to failed to load FakeSMC and failed to load AppleOnboardPCATA error 0xdc008016

"couldnt alloc class AppleOnboardPCATARoot"

 

without -f or if I use "usekernelcache=No" it just KP but doesnt say what for just panic + 0x260 and trap + 0x6fd
