v3ct0r Posted September 30, 2013 Author Share Posted September 30, 2013 Does anyone Know how to get the trackpad to work? I was able to get the wifi and everything else to work, but I still can't figure it out. I have done allot of research before asking the question and tried a few things but I keep jacking up my hackintosh and end up having to re-do everything from scratch. Sorry I realized these instructions are for 10.8 I have a working hackintosh 10.7.3 from nishant copy. I will go purchase mountain Lion 10.8 and try these steps and see if everything works like touchpad and appstore. Hey mac76, The trackpad kexts included in this install guide are newer than the ones from 10.7.X. Because they are newer, and compiled mostly for Mountain Lion/64-bit OS X, they most likely will not work for you, because (as far as I remember; I may be thinking of another machine) E6410s had to boot with "arch=i386", or the 32-bit version of OS X Lion, which is no longer available in Mountain Lion. The guide should work fine with a 10.8.X installer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnplz Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Hello bnplz, Sorry for not being completely clear on the guide... It definitely gets confusing with the edits, which is why I tried to link to coldsun's post in Step 39. This and the latest "Edit" that applies to you, which is 6/4/2013, is the only part that gets added to the tutorial. As for the BIOS options, AHCI should be the only option that needs to be set. Basically, if you're using the 10.8.5 installer, you should be able to follow the guide as if installing 10.8.4. No need for apologies!! D: You've helped hundreds of people out with your guide, it just hates me for some reason. What kexts should I be adding/deleting for my specific build (aside from the two specified folders)? I have Intel Graphics and the A15 Bios. I'm onto step 16 of the process again as we type. I wasn't sure if it was asking to delete kexts after the whole process or if AppleAHCIPort.kext & IOAHCIFamily.kext needed to be added to the installer drive or, well, you get the picture.

v3ct0r Posted September 30, 2013 Author Share Posted September 30, 2013 You should add only the two E6410 ML (the plain old ML and the 10.8.4 versions) to the flash drive. Follow coldsun's advice on using the plain old ML version to create the installer with myHack, and then the 10.8.4 version for post-installation: https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/1695-e6410-mountain-lion-guide/page-18&do=findComment&comment=20943 EDIT: I forgot to mention, the AppleAHCIPort.kext & IOAHCIFamily.kext are already included in the 10.8.4 version of the ML zip. I only posted those two up there for those that have ALREADY installed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did exactly what you just outlined and it hangs the verbose at AppleIntelE1000e Ethernet address. Above that is a bunch of notices about failing to load AirPortBrcm43xx. Giving it another 10min before I restart it, sometimes it takes 15min to suddenly boot into the installer and not let me click stuff EDIT: I removed the video kexts. It got me to the screen, but once again my mouse and keyboard are non responsive T_T EDIT EDIT: Realized my BIOS was set to RAID for some reason, did Defaults and set AHCI, rebooted to installer and got buffer headers IOAPIC: Version 0x20 Vectors 64:87 Our favorite hang.

bnplz Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Left the PC to boot non-verbose and came back from dinner to a loaded, working installer. Twas quite excited. Went to Disk Utility and there was only the usb drive listed. I restarted to check my BIOS settings and the laptop was set to AHCI. Restarted and booted non-verbose, still waiting for main screen. I have no idea why it worked and why it decided to not recognize my HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bnplz Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Sometimes I find a simple reseating of the drive to work quite effectively ... It took an hour before it even got to the welcome screen, then wouldnt show my hdd. I reseated the usb drive and now i get perma-spinny thing. Were you serious about reseating the SATA drive or just jesting at my utter misfortune T__T I really dont want to resort to distro's v.v Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v3ct0r Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 I don't want you to resort to distros either What takes the longest to load during boot (you can check it in verbose mode) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted October 1, 2013 Administrators Share Posted October 1, 2013 How about looking at your ATA controller id through lspci -nn command, then check the IOATAFamily kext for a potential patch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealBigBudz Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 You may have a bad hard drive. I would DFT it using HBCD just to be safe, definitely a shot in the dark, but you're descriptions don't match up to the common hackintosh problems I see. (More to the dead hard drive problems I see at work ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
