sherkhan Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Hello, i have a Asrock 4coredual-sata2 with a hdd western digital 320 gb sata2 attached and a ide hdd seagate. The problem is that kalyway dont recognize me the SATA 2 disk. i looked for a solution in forum and only find this post http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=63790 where he say that need to add the vendor id of my southbrige controller. My controller is a VT8237S as u can see in http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.asp?Model=4CoreDual-SATA2 (the same that the post). I changued my id as described in the post, but when load i get an VIA UNKNOWN. If i install kalyway on the ide hdd its install fine and all works but dont recognize de SATA hdd. Anny suggestion? Anyone has installed sucefully kalyway on this mobo with a SATA disk?. I read all the forum topics and nobody have the same problem. Thanks. ---------------------------------------- CPU: Intel QuadCore Q6600 MEM: 2Gb Kingston DDR2 533 MB: Asrock 4coredual-sata2 HDD: 1 SATA2 WD 320GB, 1 WD IDE 80GB ---------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexandru Leafa Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 From what I can tell no one but us has this mobo and Michael Spoli but the guy is an idiot and isn't sharing information, if you find out anything on how to get it working give me a sign please!

olmirror Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 You're not the only ones running this mobo, there are more and leopard is running fine on this puppy. Check out thestevo's posts, there's some discussions going on here about al the asrock dual and 4core vsta motherboards. There are also some links to downloads of kexts that should get your rig up and running. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherkhan Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 i probe with the thestevo's path for kalyway but not luck! . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gansolfm Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I also have a mobo like yours, and i can't get network to work, Leopard recognizes a device and that's it, I installed with thestevo patch, do u think that was the problem? You installed with the patch? Or just kalyway 10.5.1? I have a 120GB seagate SATA disk that isn't recognized Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kreeper_6 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I Have the same mo board, and no luck with thestevo patch. WTF. I've been asking around about getting sata drive enabled, but nobody cares. they will tell you to do a search, its the end all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherkhan Posted March 5, 2008 Author Share Posted March 5, 2008 i dont use yet the buitin network card. I use a 3com pci and work fine, but doesnt the sata2 disk. i use the kalyway 10.5.1 without thestevos path, kalyway 10.5.1 with thestevos path, i trie use a jumper on the sata2 disk to force it use SATA and not SATA2 but not luck. I think that thestevo patch never works with this mobo beacause the chipset of southbridge is diferent. Thesthevo path is designed for the chipset VT8237A, and our mobo is diferent. 4coredual-SATA2 uses a diferent chipset VT8237S. I also have a mobo like yours, and i can't get network to work, Leopard recognizes a device and that's it, I installed with thestevo patch, do u think that was the problem? You installed with the patch? Or just kalyway 10.5.1? I have a 120GB seagate SATA disk that isn't recognized Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
