Hi ! I have issues trying to install Mac OSX on my ASUS ROG G51J laptop (with "MB Ver. G60Jx" written on the back).

I followed the steps of this tutorial: https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/283111-installing-os-x-1082-windows-8-dual-boot-on-asus-g51jx/, however I couldn't boot directly on the bootable Lion USB (not ML) created with myHack, the laptop would just reboot without doing anything. So I tried multiple bootloaders, such as Empire EFI, but I still couldn't get to the installation screen. With Empire EFI, I got stuck on "PCI configuration begin", on [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] I got a kernel panic error with something like "unable to find driver for this platform: acpi...." and I couldn't get Chameleon to boot on a USB flash drive. The specs on this laptop are the following:

Intel i7-720QM

GeForce GTS 360M

8GB RAM

500GB HDD

I tried multiple boot flags, like -v, -f, -x, GraphicsEnabler=No, PCIRootUID=1, cpus=1, npci=0x2000/npci=0x3000.

Also, the options in the BIOS are very limited, I couldn't find something related to a SATA Mode option. Although I think the BIOS isn't updated to its latest version but I don't know if it would change something.

Should I try another distro/version of OSX or another bootloader ? Thanks in advance !

Sorry if my english is not very good.

Hi, thank you for the answer. Here is the Extra folder I'm using: https://mega.nz/#!uuJmGYZT!mkmNQvLGZIj1UamD21vGBySR-RwAk7s5f0dPy6VbfvQ

I managed to boot on Chameleon and replaced the AppleACPIPlatform kext but I still got the Kernel panic error (the kext on the archive might be different from the one you linked because I tried another version after).

I posted pictures to give more details, thanks in advance !

Thank you for your help but unfortunately that didn't work, I replaced the Extra folder with myHack and still get the same error. Should I create a new installer with High Sierra ?
