FabricioGS Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Ok, i'm getting on my nervs right now. I've downloaded all files needed but still don't know what exactly what to do with them! Is it that hard for you expert guys teach a simple guide for us? I mean.. i'm not a computer newbie, but not an Apple Developer also. In fact i'm a programmer but i just can't understand how it works. Is it so hard to give us a binary file already done for 0x00e510de. I saw at least 5 other persons here trying to "develop" this binaries without any success. Woundn't be easier to release this file already done and SIMPLE directions to install them? equinox? macgirl? Please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mole Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Hi, The same on my side. I have done everything mentioned but always get dependency errors. It would be really great if someone could post the compiled driver for 0x00e510de + idiots guide. Thank you Best regards Mole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAWS13 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 first off thanks everyone for the hard work...after this fix/patch my computer feels 100 times better. I used this: thanks bikx86 I opened up the package contents of the IOATAFamily.kext linked to previously in this post, and pulled out only the AppleOnboardPCATA.kext package. I put that into the IOATAFamily.kext package that is already in the /System/Library/Extensions folder. Then I ran: sudo chown -R root:wheel IOATAFamily.kext to make sure that every file in that package was on the same page. It seems to be booting fairly reliably now. only drawback I have to boot w/ -f (no biggie though) I have: DFI UTLanParty NF3 250gb 3000+ AMD64 mobile 1gb Corsair BH-5 9800 XT Maxtor 120gb 7200 my HD drive score before: Results 18.04 System Info Xbench Version 1.2 System Version 10.4.1 (8B1025) Physical RAM 1024 MB Model ACPI Drive Type Maxtor 6Y120P0 Disk Test 18.04 Sequential 13.27 Uncached Write 10.42 6.40 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Write 11.89 6.73 MB/sec [256K blocks] Uncached Read 20.72 6.06 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Read 13.65 6.86 MB/sec [256K blocks] Random 28.16 Uncached Write 21.20 2.24 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Write 20.33 6.51 MB/sec [256K blocks] Uncached Read 78.22 0.55 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Read 30.39 5.64 MB/sec [256K blocks] after Results 70.68 System Info Xbench Version 1.2 System Version 10.4.1 (8B1025) Physical RAM 1024 MB Model ACPI Drive Type Maxtor 6Y120P0 Disk Test 70.68 Sequential 100.64 Uncached Write 95.02 58.34 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Write 102.20 57.83 MB/sec [256K blocks] Uncached Read 121.81 35.65 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Read 89.06 44.76 MB/sec [256K blocks] Random 54.46 Uncached Write 21.12 2.24 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Write 136.01 43.54 MB/sec [256K blocks] Uncached Read 90.36 0.64 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Read 130.15 24.15 MB/sec [256K blocks] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsychoSync Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Questions taken from this SHORT explaination: I opened up the package contents of the IOATAFamily.kext linked to previously in this post, and pulled out only the AppleOnboardPCATA.kext package. I put that into the IOATAFamily.kext package that is already in the /System/Library/Extensions folder. "I opened up the package contents of the IOATAFamily.kext" How do you open it up ?! "and pulled out only the AppleOnboardPCATA.kext package." Is this file inside of IOATAFamily.kext ? "I put that into the IOATAFamily.kext package that is already in the /System/Library/Extensions folder." How do you put AppleOnboardPCATA.kext into IOATAFamily.kext ?

I were already writing the same questions here The explanation was helpful but could it be a bit more "newbie"? Or would kill you to post these files here? Will I have to beg (more) on my knees ?

macgirl Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 AppleOnboardPCATA.kext is not a file, is a whole directory, so you need use "cp -R" or "mv", something like this: sudo cp -R AppleOnboardPCATA.kext /System/Library/Extensions/IOATAFamily.kext/Contents/Plugins/ then do the "sudo chown -R root:wheel IOATAFamily.kext" command.

FabricioGS Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 I compiled the project but I added a line for a nForce4, like this: { 0x005310de, 6, "NVIDIA nForce4" } and also modified the Info.plist adding 0x00d510de to the list, replace the kext inside IOATAFamili.kext and works with my nForce 4 macgirl, what is the complete path to this Info.plist? (eg: /System/Library/Extensions/IOATAFamily.kext/...) I´ve finally did the replacement of the files but it worked only on the first boot. On the later boots it was DMA only again so I thing this might be Info.plist problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 path after moving the kext is: /System/Library/Extensions/IOATAFamily.kext/Contents/Plugins/AppleOnboardPCATA.kext/Contents/Info.plist Did you erase the caches before booting? /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache /System/Library/Extensions.mkext Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsychoSync Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Ok, I'm not sure if i did everything well... I downloaded AppleOnboardPCATA.kext, copied it in my "home icon/root?" directory, then in terminal, did the command:"sudo cp -R AppleOnboardPCATA.kext /System/Library/Extensions/IOATAFamily.kext/Contents/Plugins/". Then downloaded IOATAFamily.kext, did this command:"sudo chown -R root:wheel IOATAFamily.kext". Now I don't know how to do the next steps... Must I edit an Info.plist file somewhere? If so how do i proceed? Must I erase caches? I don't know how to do that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 If you download and move the IOATAFamily.kext after you moved the AppleOnboarPCATA.kext you overwrite it. Just move AppleOnboardPCTATA.kext and edit it's Info.plist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macgirl Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 Modified the nVidia c++ code part, build in xcode, edit the Info.plist of the resulting kext, then replace it, delete caches an reboot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much macgirl, I got my NF4 ATA working using your attached kext file! I have same device ID as yours. I got 10 time higher HD transfer rate. Maybe you should add it to wiki for NF4 MB.
