flibblesan Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Has anybody managed to get EFI working with the vanilla kernel on an Asrock Conroe1333-D667 board, with Intel 945G chipset ?

paulicat Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Yes I did, and also, its not motherboard specific at all. Paulicat Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/72560-efi-on-an-asrock-conroe1333-d667/#findComment-513930 Share on other sites More sharing options...
flibblesan Posted November 22, 2007 Author Share Posted November 22, 2007 Strange. Whenever I try EFI, the PC is stuck in an endless reboot cycle. I have to manually boot using the ToH kernel rather than the vanilla. I originally installed from the ToH DVD.

Biohead Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Flibblesan: Have you gotten EFI working? I also have your motherboard and get the reboot loop. Drbee: I used the flat image in install leopard as getting hold of a dvd wold have proved tiresome for me. Do the normal kexts still work?
