Tinkergnome Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Hello i have a Dell Precision 690 my osx install is the LSI SAS controller. Everything there works fine. However unless I use the -f boot flag my sata drives do not show up. Using the system info app they show as a "631xESB/632xESB SATA AHCI Controller. With a Class ID of 0106, Ven ID 8086, Dev ID 269e. How do i get them to show up upon normal boot no -f flag. thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinkergnome Posted June 2, 2013 Author Share Posted June 2, 2013 Hey Artur-pt i found this information here OPTION 1:This error manifests itself on OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion only if you boot your Hackintosh with UseKernelCache=Yes, as booting with “-f” results in a normal boot sequence. The reason is believed to be due to a timing change Apple has introduced in the IOAHCIBlockStorage.kext, results in a bug on Hackintosh builds: the system enumerates the disk partitions too fast and the boot partition gets skipped. The fix involves patching the IOAHCIBlockStorage.kext and adding a slight delay that allows enough time for disk enumeration. The shell script patcher is available from the author’s Dropbox, but if you prefer to do everything by hand yourself, here is the list of the commands: cd /System/Library/Extensions/IOAHCIFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOAHCIBlockStorage.kext/Contents/MacOS sudo mv IOAHCIBlockStorage IOAHCIBlockStorage.orig sudo cp IOAHCIBlockStorage.orig IOAHCIBlockStorage sudo /usr/bin/perl -pi -e ‘s|\xeb\x4c\x00\x00\xea\x03| \xeb\x4c\x00\x00\xe8\x01|g’ IOAHCIBlockStorage sudo /usr/bin/perl -pi -e ‘s|\x74\x0e\x48\x8d\x3d\xa5\x90\x00\x00| \xbf\xc8\x00\x00\x00\x90\x90\x90\x90|g’ IOAHCIBlockStorage sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions Reboot and see if this fixes the problem for your Hackintosh. OPTION 2: The following commands place a backup of the unmodified binary before patching it. cd /System/Library/Extensions/IOAHCIFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOAHCIBlockStorage.kext/Contents/MacOS sudo mv IOAHCIBlockStorage IOAHCIBlockStorage.orig sudo cp IOAHCIBlockStorage.orig IOAHCIBlockStorage sudo /usr/bin/perl -pi -e ‘s|\xbb\x4b\x00\x00\xeb\x03| \xbb\x4b\x00\x00\xe8\x01|g’ IOAHCIBlockStorage sudo /usr/bin/perl -pi -e ‘s|\x74\x0e\x48\x8d\x3d\xb2\x91\x00\x00| \xbf\xc8\x00\x00\x00\x90\x90\x90\x90|g’ IOAHCIBlockStorage sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions Update: This patch DOES NOT work for 10.8.2′s IOAHCIBlockStorage.kext But apparently it does not work on 10.8.2 I have also found several threads mentioning trim support would those kext work or is there one in particular i should use should work??

Maniac10 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 If this is your problem then install 10.8.3 and it should be gone. If you don't wanna update, try boot with "debug=8 ahcidisk=1" just to confirm if that is the problem, and if it works then use bbc9's patch.

Tinkergnome Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 Hey Maniac10 I do not think that is my problem. I use my SAS drive as main boot device sata connections were for dvd and storage drive. However thanks to artur-pt he did point me in a direction to fix the issue just need to do a wee bit of patching to the IOAHCIBlockstorage.kext the patch follows. Just hope this will carry over to 10.8.3 cd /System/Library/Extensions/IOAHCIFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOAHCIBlockStorage.kext/Contents/MacOS sudo mv IOAHCIBlockStorage IOAHCIBlockStorage.orig sudo cp IOAHCIBlockStorage.orig IOAHCIBlockStorage sudo /usr/bin/perl -pi -e 's|\x8b\x4a\x00\x00\xeb\x03|\x8b\x4a\x00\x00\xe8\x01|g' IOAHCIBlockStorage sudo /usr/bin/perl -pi -e 's|\x74\x0e\x48\x8d\x3d\x72\x92\x00\x00|\xbf\xc8\x00\x00\x00\x90\x90\x90\x90|g' IOAHCIBlockStorage sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions Almost all my issues are fixed now just hope to sort out the video a bit better.

Tinkergnome Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 Ok back at needing a wee bit of help again... Updated to 10.8.3 and sata disappeared again found a bit of code cd /System/Library/Extensions/IOAHCIFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOAHCIBlockStorage.kext/Contents/MacOS sudo mv IOAHCIBlockStorage IOAHCIBlockStorage.orig sudo cp IOAHCIBlockStorage.orig IOAHCIBlockStorage sudo /usr/bin/perl -pi -e 's|\xcb\x57\x00\x00\xee\x03|\xcb\x57\x00\x00\xea\x01|g' IOAHCIBlockStorage sudo /usr/bin/perl -pi -e 's|\x74\x0e\x48\x8d\x3d\x72\x94\x00\x00|\xbf\xc8\x00\x00\x00\x90\x90\x90\x90|g' IOAHCIBlockStorage sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions Supposed to be fix for 10.8.3 but drives are still missing any ideas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
