Xopek Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 Hello. My OSX works good. I push sleep button and went to sleep. Today i press power button, but OSX doen't starts. How can I boot OSX "in restart" mode? From darwin boot menu for example. Thanks.

Rammjet Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 Most Hackintoshes don't sleep very well. I would advise not sleeping your computer. You probably can sleep your monitor and your hard drives, but not the computer. Go to Energy Saver in System Preferences and set that up. If you are unable to boot at all after sleep, try pulling the power plug and let the computer sit for 10 minutes. Then try to boot. If that doesn't work, pull the plug and open the computer. Remove the battery on the motherboard. Use the jumper on the motherboard to clear the CMOS. Somewhere near the battery are 3 wires with a jumper on wires 1 and 2. Move the jumper to wires 2 and 3 and wait 30 seconds. Then move the jumper back. Put the battery back. Close the case. Plug in the computer and boot.

Rammjet Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 Try my power cord suggestions. When you boot, try using -v -f Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/35448-how-to-reload-osx-after-sleep-command/#findComment-252153 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xopek Posted December 10, 2006 Author Share Posted December 10, 2006 Rammjet[/] , thanks -v -f forks greate! You're my OSX angel . Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/35448-how-to-reload-osx-after-sleep-command/#findComment-252165 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xopek Posted December 10, 2006 Author Share Posted December 10, 2006 But after new reboot I have a blue screen with concole again. Only restart - F8 - "-v -f" helps. What shell I do now? It's not good to load OSX -v -f method everytime.

Rammjet Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 It doesn't hurt anything other than your F8 finger to boot -v -f everytime. If necessary, put those into the boot.plist under Kernel Flags. First, though, try deleting the Extensions.mkext and Extensions.kextcache and reboot.

Xopek Posted December 11, 2006 Author Share Posted December 11, 2006 Thanks, will try. PS. What does "-f" key mean? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/35448-how-to-reload-osx-after-sleep-command/#findComment-252635 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaspers Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 a.f.a.i.k. it reloads the kext database. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/35448-how-to-reload-osx-after-sleep-command/#findComment-252639 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammjet Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 PS. What does "-f" key mean? To speed booting, OSX scans all kexts and puts the info into a database (Extensions.mkext and Extensions.kextcache). Any time you mess with kexts, you need to rebuild that database. If you delete those two files prior to booting, they will be rebuilt when you boot. If you forget to delete the two files or if the database becomes corrupt, you can bypass using the database by using the -f flag at boot. In that case, OSX just reads the kexts directly. Takes a little longer, but solves problems. After booting with -f, it is best to fix the database (delete the files). If it seems you need to do this everytime you boot, then just add -f to the boot.plist and accept a little more time booting.

Xopek Posted December 11, 2006 Author Share Posted December 11, 2006 "Searching Computer" don't show Extensions.mkext and Extensions.kextcache :-( Where can I find them manually?

Rammjet Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 As I said, under Kernel Flags: <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string> -v -f </string> You might try -f only first and if that doesn't seem to do it, then add -v.

ivik Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Under JaS 10.4.6 suspend works great on acer laptop(945 chipset). If i press fn+f4 my laptop sleeps (like in linux echo mem > /sys/power/state). Also when i updated my system with egwans updater with daemones kernel it worked few times. But with new JaS with ppf patch it doesnt work. My system turns monitor off, then waits few sesonds and reboots. My computer is fully acpi complitant. It works under linux, without any patches and all kernel modules for my hardware. Is there any way to troubleshoot this? Could i downgrade my kernel to one from jas 10.4.6?

Abysmal Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 ... with new JaS with ppf patch it doesnt work. Happens to me as well.. From what I have read in the forums the sleep/restore functions are not finished in this kernel ( 8.8.1 ) which gets installed with the latest JaS/PPF1 install.
