L_A_S_E_R Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 So i've successfully installed Lion 10.7 on my Dell Inspiron 1525 intel core 2 duo t5450 1.66ghz and 2gb ram using this tutorial.https://sites.google.com/site/nozyczek/home/hackintosh/how-to-install-lion-10-7-0-on-dell-inspiron-1525 I've installed it but when rebooting using the USB i used i get this: http://q3uzta.bay.livefilestore.com/y1p9GUmtpz70npjMrcAVnf1mZLNiqOgYxBDe-OrG3oJXdx5AubbAV8N8Wmxr7X46_7F0cOAZaMUxAZBi0KUNvMU9w/14012009159.jpg I've tried to get into the /System/Library/coreservices/contents/info.plist but it doesn't exist and a keyboard isn't an option. Any advice? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/304832-before-you-begin-there-is-no-keyboard-connected-to-your-computer/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

L_A_S_E_R Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 Yeah it is, if I press command + q it asks me if I want to quit. Also, is the solution you posted supposed to be done in the disk utility in the installation screen? IF so, if says Sudo and cp are not commands Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/304832-before-you-begin-there-is-no-keyboard-connected-to-your-computer/#findComment-2115927 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, is the solution you posted supposed to be done in the disk utility in the installation screen? IF so, if says Sudo and cp are not commands No, you need to open up terminal when booting from the installation media. Then use the commands on the partition you have OS X installed on. /Your Partition Replace it with disk0s1 for example. Type diskutil list to identify your osx partition. Edit: Example from results.

L_A_S_E_R Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 So when I boot up, I should select terminal from the toolbar at the top? The commands such as cp aren't recognized though :/ Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/304832-before-you-begin-there-is-no-keyboard-connected-to-your-computer/#findComment-2115930 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaldMeister Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 So when I boot up, I should select terminal from the toolbar at the top? The commands such as cp aren't recognized though :/ Load the setup from USB. Then from the dropdown menu choose terminal. All you need to do is: cd /Volumes/Your Partition/var/db touch .AppleSetupDone resetpassword Your Partition is the partition OS X is installed on. In my example it would be: cd /Volumes/Yosemite/var/db touch .AppleSetupDone resetpassword Reboot, log in as root, with the created password, and create a new user account.

Riley Freeman Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Assuming you're booting with PS/2 kexts for the keyboard and trackpad, just hit the spacebar twice and it will skip to the language select screen.

Does/did this really work? In snow leo it was -s, ./applesetupdone etc. Just wondering.

Riley Freeman Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 It works for me with Mavericks and Yosemite. Haven't tried it on anything earlier. You only need this at the setup stage. Once the system is up and running the PS/2 kexts will get cached and you won't get asked this again unless you boot into the Recovery partition.

What you said worked! however, when i restart, i get a screen which asks me for a username and password, what's my username?
