.SaFe Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Hey! It's my first Hackintosh and I don't really know what to do. I read a lot of things about it, but nothing which could help me. I got OS X installed with iAtkos v7 and ddmac. Also I used Bootdiskutility. But when I want to boot my freshly installed OS X, all it does is rebooting as soon as the white screen appears. So I see the white screen (without Apple logo) for 1-2 seconds and then it reboots. I also tried booting with Bootflag -v, but after a lot of text appears it reboots. I hope you can help me asap, because I really need OS X at the moment. Kindly regards P.S.: My system is Compaq 615, so CPU : AMD Turion X2 RM-74 and GPU : ATI Radeon HD 3200 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295308-reboot-loop-after-installing-iatkos-v7/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laberlohe Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Hello and welcome! Try to boot with "-x -v". Please post your system and the last screen you get with bootflag "-v" (verbose mode).

.SaFe Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 Getan, aber es startet wieder neu. Noch bevor ich einen Screen machen kann ist die gesamte Schrift schon wieder weg. // Typo is gone before I can take a picture.

Laberlohe Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 After a short crossreading through threads connected with "compaq 615" it seems like you have missed a driver/kext while installion. Reboot from iAtkos disc and just reinstall the needed driver...

.SaFe Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 I can't find the thread. Can you give me a link or tell me which kext it is?

Laberlohe Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 The missing kexts wasn't noted, just that a (or more) was missng. Sorry. Last time I used iAtkos was in 2008/9 on Opteron144 based machine - quite outdated...

.SaFe Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 Alright. Anything I could do? I don't really know which one it could be, so..... Just clicking around something won't help I think Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295308-reboot-loop-after-installing-iatkos-v7/#findComment-1985115 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laberlohe Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Trying to remember... have you checked "patched kernel"? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295308-reboot-loop-after-installing-iatkos-v7/#findComment-1985120 Share on other sites More sharing options...
.SaFe Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 Do you mean Voodoo Kernel in the main-point "System"? No, I didn't check the box. Edit: checked it now but it made strange noises do I need v5 oder v7 checked? It didn't identify my Keyboard either. Do I need to use an external Keyboard at first and install the kext later?

Laberlohe Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Then make up leeway. Vanilla kernel can't run on AMD... Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295308-reboot-loop-after-installing-iatkos-v7/#findComment-1985147 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laberlohe Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Strange noise? Fans running to fast? External keyboard is "normal", older notebooks used internal PS/2-connectors, which Apple never used. So a kext will be required...

.SaFe Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 Yeah, that could have been the fans! How do i fix that? Is the kext for older Keyboards already integrated in Customization? I'll continue tomorrow Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295308-reboot-loop-after-installing-iatkos-v7/#findComment-1985160 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laberlohe Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Should be named ApplePS2.kext or -fix... Fans should be related to powermanagement, but I can't remember how to fix this problem. Isn't there any PM-fix or patched ApplePM.kext?

.SaFe Posted January 15, 2014 Author Share Posted January 15, 2014 Well, it works now, big thanks! The only thing I need to get working is WLAN. I have an Hama USB Stick, which worked fine with ML on another one. Do I need to install some kexts or something? The strange noises came from sound, sth didn't work properly, i dunno. It doesn't really work atm, sounds like it's lagging and kinda distorted.

Laberlohe Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I don't know. It depends on the chipset of the WLan-stick... Leopard was last updated in 2009, Mountain Lion was released 2012. Especially if it's a wireless-n device will the kext/driver be much newer as Leopard ;-) Try latest VoodooHDA to fix sound problems. Same again, which chipset is used?

.SaFe Posted January 15, 2014 Author Share Posted January 15, 2014 VoodooHDA was installed automatically. In Hardware -> Audio (Bult In) there is just "Intel High Definition Audio" with Device ID: 0x103C308C Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295308-reboot-loop-after-installing-iatkos-v7/#findComment-1985333 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laberlohe Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Just I read that VoodooHDA 2.62 would be working well: http://nawcom.com/osx86/files/10.6/Audio/VoodooHDA/0.2.62/ Alternatively delete VoodooHDA and add your device/vendor id to AppleHDA.kext. (Don't forget to rebuild caches/repair permissions, e.g. by using kext wizard) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295308-reboot-loop-after-installing-iatkos-v7/#findComment-1985432 Share on other sites More sharing options...
.SaFe Posted January 24, 2014 Author Share Posted January 24, 2014 I have no sound now :/ But I watched the hackbook, after a few minutes it gets very hot so I turn it off. The graphic card on my last one got damaged and I think it's because of the temperature. What can I do?

ZaDoR Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Try niresh distro, find bronyas latest kernel for amd rename it to mach_kernel and replace it with the kernel that niresh preinstalled.

.SaFe Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 that's the point. I can't find a working kernel for my amd.
