I don't know why but today i realize that my osx86 are slow. Ran Xbench and got this:

I don't understand, before my results reaches 57. You see that disk access are too slow and dropping my overall result.

 

What do you guess?

I'm getting close to solution:

 

At now i have:

AppleGenericPCATADriver: CMD 0x170, CTR 0x374, IRQ 15

AppleGenericPCATADriver: CMD 0x1f0, CTR 0x3f4, IRQ 14

Got boot device = IOService:/AppleACPIPlatformExpert/PCI0@0/AppleACPIPCI/IDE0@D/AppleGenericPCATAPCIRoot/PRI0@0/AppleGenericPCATADriver/ATADeviceNub@0/IOATABlockStorageDriver/IOATABlockStorageDevice/IOBlockStorageDriver/SAMSUNG SP0822N

 

Before it was:

Waiting for boot volume with UUID A39EAE7C-CC76-3BE0-8F98-0450F6986DC2

Waiting on <dict ID="0"><key>IOProviderClass</key><string ID="1">IOResources</string><key>IOResourceMatch</key><string ID="2">boot-uuid-media</string></dict>

Extension "com.apple.driver.AppleOnboardPCATA" has no kernel dependency.

AppleNVIDIAnForceATA: NVIDIA nForce4 A2 (CMD 0x170, CTR 0x374, IRQ 15, BM 0xf408)

USBF: 25. 99 AppleUSBOHCI[0x1f3b000]::start OHCI controller will be unloaded across sleep

AppleNVIDIAnForceATA: NVIDIA nForce4 A2 (CMD 0x1f0, CTR 0x3f4, IRQ 14, BM 0xf400)

Got boot device = IOService:/AppleACPIPlatformExpert/PCI0@0/AppleACPIPCI/IDE0@D/AppleOnboardPCATARoot/PRI0@0/AppleNVIDIAnForceATA/ATADeviceNub@0/IOATABlockStorageDriver/IOATABlockStorageDevice/IOBlockStorageDriver/SAMSUNG SP0822N Media/IOFDiskPartitionScheme/Untitled 1@1

 

I don't know what I did but realize that it was AppleNVIDIAnForceATA and now it is AppleGenericPCATA.

 

I'm trying to recover to nforce and can't get it.

 

How can I to substitute AppleGenericATA with nforce?
