joelOz Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I've been searching for 3 days now online and I can't find an answer. I've come all this way just by reading and experimenting but now I am totally stuck. I have installed Yosemite onto my machine and it is now configured well enough that it boots every time. I am now in the process of ironing out bugs and installing kexts to get everything to work. One that I've been mostly focussing on and I will keep experimenting is the video card kexts. I have checked boot args in com.apple.Boot.plist and org.chameleon.boot.plist and neither of them seem to have anything wrong, but when I boot, I get an error (checked using sudo dmesg) NVDA: disabled by nv_disable=1 boot-arg and nowhere in either of those boot.plists is that flag. It's so frustrating! Are there any other boot lists that I should be looking at? Have I missed something? Sorry there is no screencap, The computer has no connection to Wireless or anything at the moment and usb even is still dicey but one problem at a time, ey?

TheRacerMaster Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Check your NVRAM boot-args. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calibre™ Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 or remove the hidden nvram.plist in the root. i had the issue before and reseting the bios to defaults did work too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joelOz Posted August 30, 2015 Author Share Posted August 30, 2015 Thanks for getting back to me so quick. I've looked in extensions and modules and all over folders and can't seem to find a hint of a NVRAM.plist. This is either a great thing or not, because if it isn't there, I still don't know where these bloody boot args are coming from!

crazyJAT Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 nvram.plist is in the root of your hard drive. Open terminal and do: sudo rm /nvram.plist or to be safe, just move it: sudo mv /nvram.plist /nvram.plist.bak 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joelOz Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 mv: rename /nvram.plist to /nvram.plist.bak: No such file or directory ... Hmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRacerMaster Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Did you check your boot-args using the NVRAM command in Terminal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
