I have the message "Still waiting for root device" My bios setup : Execute Disable Bit : Enabled AHCI mode control: Manual, set AHCI Mode = Enabled Secure Boot: Disable, OS Mode Selection: CSM OS I have tried some boot flag (-v, -x, -f) Without -x, i have a kernel panic I tried some combinaisons with PCIRootUID, npci 0x2000 0x3000, graphicsEnabler... I tried delete extension in E/E, but always the same mesage "Still waiting for root device". The same message is present with all sytems I tested : #####, myhack, iaktos...

danathor2 Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share Posted September 22, 2013 Thanks to reply. I have add this kext in E/E. No more "Still waiting", but block on "IOBluetoothHCIController start -- completed". And before, 10 lines of "Refusing new kext comp...IOPCIFamily : A loaded with a different executable UUID is already present." And when I replace IOPCIFamily.kext to yours kext in system/library/E, i return to the "still waiting" message.

danathor2 Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share Posted September 22, 2013 No change with GUID... I don't know how I spent the step of "still waiting" to this : http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=532177IMG20130922153144.jpg This was when i have add your kext in E/E. I try to do it again, but i have only "Still waiting..." I think this is very random.

danathor2 Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share Posted September 23, 2013 Okay, it's much better! I boot only in safe mode but i can install mac os. (And i have deleted all video kexts to avoid a black screen...). I can boot on mountain lion installed, in safe mode only again... (800x600, no touch pad, no sounds, no battery indicator...) My screen without safe mode : (And how can i add some flag option with clover ?) Thank you!

danathor2 Posted September 25, 2013 Author Share Posted September 25, 2013 Update. After some tests, i can't boot without -x. With all video kexts : black screen during boot, with or without "-x" Without video kexts : screen freeze (see capture above), OK with "-x" Without "-x", i'm flood by many "SMC ERROR" lines. It's important ? With -x, I boot in 800x600 with chameleon, and i boot in native resolution with clover (but graphics are laggy). I have read many threads on hd4000, but no results. I don't know what can i do. Work to boot the installer without safe mode or work in post installation ?
