Catevs Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 I have the same problem. I have Intel mbo: DG965RY and install allways stop at ACPI:System State [s0 S3 S4 S5] (S3). I read somewhere that the problem is between BIOS and Darwin, bicause Darvin read only first 16 devices, and BIOS give devices from 1-255. Is it posible do change Darvin boot loader so it can read all devices in BIOS???

Middleman Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Guys, I've found a solution! I had the same 'ACPI' error and managed to install Jas 10.48 SSE2 SSE3 without a hitch on my PATA with Asus VP5V900 aka P5VD2-VM. The problem was using a Beta V2 of the Jas install and a few settings in BIOS. Once I changed the BIOS, used the proper Jas 10.4.8 and reformatted the drive for installation, everything went smoothly. First, before installation you must make sure you have the following settings in BIOS: PATA IDE: Set to master on Primary IDE, all settings to Auto CDROM IDE: Set to master on Secondary IDE, all settings to Auto HDD Smart monitoring: on CPU Config: all enabled, especially Limit CPUID Maxval Chipset primary display: mine was PCI-E PCI Pnp > Plug & Play OS: Yes Resources controlled by: Auto Assign IRQ for VGA: Disabled Maximum payload size: 4096 Onboard IDE: Sata controller: Enabled Sata Controller mode: IDE HDA controller: Auto Onboard Lan device: Enabled Onboard Lan rom: Disabled Serial port1 address: 3F8/IRQ4 Parallel port address 3F8/IRQ7 Parallel port mode: Bi-directional ECP Mode Use DMA: 3 USB: all enabled including legacy support Power > ACPI Suspend type: S1 (POS) ACPI ACIP support: Enabled (mine was fixed) APM Configuration: all off including HPET support Hardware monitor: enabled Boot > Boot settings configuration > OS select for DRAM > 64MB: OS2 With the above settings I just loaded up Jas 10.4.8 and got the thing installed on my PATA drive. I believe disabling the VGA IRQ and setting the CPUID Maxval limit helped. Remember it must be clean install for this to work after setting BIOS - previous ones don't work. Let us know how it goes. But now I'm following this guide > http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=47859 to get my OSX onto the SATA drive Final note, I also noticed on my installation after the correct BIOS setup that the darwin text screen showed two VIA UNKNOWNS and when the ACPI problem occurred, it was only 1 VIA UNKNOWN showing.

Yaniv Ragasaydiv Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 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? try resetting ur BIOS settings.. do you overclock a lot ?? check master slave etc etc.. the usual.. of course it can be a disc burn issue also.. try even defragmenting ur harddrive. trust me it does make a difference.

gotuX Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Some news.. i've tried some options... seems that there are some issues with the "mmconfig" pci architectures. Is possible to disable the mmconf in the mach kernel? With BSD and linux kernel, this is possible with pci=nommconf in the boot options. I've tried with mac, but there are the same problems. Thanks.
