majkel Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 I have problem with JaS 10.4.8 instalation on my ASUS A6KM-Q097H laptop (Turion64, 1GB ram, Go7300). I can't install it becouse instalation booting process hangs at the beginning on ACPI:System State [s0 S3 S4 S5] (S3) i've tried with "platform=x86pc" and "acpi=off" like in my UBUNTU, but it doesn't help:( Can anybody help me?

Stellair Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 I am also trying to get the "JaS.Mac.OS.X.10.4.8.AMD.Intel.SSE2.SSE3.PPF.1.Integrated.JaS 10.4.8 AMD Intel SSE2 SSE3.Defiant diskutil fix.Integrated" image running on a Acer 9423 (dual core) but it's not working. Can't figure it out to get it running. Is there something to do before installing OSX? I made a FAT32 partition with gparted and I can go through the OSX setup but at a certain level it's stopping and give me a fault in the log -> "Section 4: Fault...", or something Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41242-acpi-problem-wont-install/#findComment-294799 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevinosx Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Kingskawn, try disabling a core in bios before installing. majkel: does your bios let you mess with acpi?

majkel Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 I thinks no its, so poor, I can change there "first boot device", "clock", "tv out from NTSC to PAL", and set a password. Maybe there is a "advanced user mode" but i dont know how to turn it on.

Stellair Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Kingskawn, try disabling a core in bios before installing. Yes I was thinking of that too but the bios of an Acer 9423 laptop won't let you change anything. It's a bios but all the information is read only apparently, almost no option can be configured. The startup process can for example but overclocking or disabling an IDE or SATA could't Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41242-acpi-problem-wont-install/#findComment-295322 Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithd1998 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I have been seeing the same error ACPI:System State [s0 S3 S4 S5] (S3) on a Toshiba Satellite Centrino based machine. However, If I leave it on long enough, it eventually comes up with the error "Still waiting on root device" Not sure how to fix it but I know I have seen a thread about it.

kevinosx Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 have you tried booting it with a different kernel yet? I would try semthex's lates kernel (10.4.8 only) or daemon's kernel. For disabling one core you can do so by editing the plist, I can't remember how to get to it from boot (maybe by hitting f8 when it starts to load?) but I think you can get to terminal through your osx installation dvd. Once in terminal type: sudo nano /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist edit the kernel flags to read this: <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>platform=X86PC cpus=1</string> And then alt+O to save then alt+x to exit. That will allow it to run on one core. I know for a fact that acer laptops wont allow you to run osx on two cores! (never reported one working on 2) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41242-acpi-problem-wont-install/#findComment-295514 Share on other sites More sharing options...

zombidik Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Plug off all usb devices before booting. When you see the osx screen you can plug them back.

navrose Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 I have the same problem with D946GZIS mobo. I tried all startup option and bios settings, but no use. when i booted with -v debug=0x144 io=0xffffffff , i found out that it is always at PCI bus operations. When I disabled AppleACPIPCI.kext in AppleACPIPlatform.kext/Contents/Plugins it progressed and enumerated device tree (DT plane), but drivers for PCI bus devices ( for IDE controller) are not loaded. So "Still waiting for root device" error. The problem is with either ACPI driver or mobo ACPI implementation. On systems that boot without problem ACPI State is (S0) not (S3) . S3 is "suspend to ram" hence hangup. If the problem is with the ACPI driver , we may fix it. (ACPIPlatform source is not public so it is hard).

Matthew Jason Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Did anyone actually suspect that it is a DVD error at all? Like was the disc burned properly?

mtheory Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 It's not a DVD error; I've tried installing it on my system with multiple Jas/Uphuck versions from 10.4.8 to 10.4.9. The error is always the same; the boot screen just stops at: ACPI:System State [s0 S3 S4 S5] (S3) Even with -x, -v, -s, platform=whatever, cpus=1...they don't help. Does anyone have any useful suggestions? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41242-acpi-problem-wont-install/#findComment-384436 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got an Acer Veriton 6900pro with Q965 / ICH8DO with behaves exactly the same way. After disabling AppleACPIPCI.kext the DT was enumerated without crashing, but without PCI devices booting isn't really exciting... I think it's a buggy BIOS. Even Ubuntu 7.04 won't start until i use "irqpoll" as kernel option. Is there anything like "irqpoll" in current XNU kernles?
