plastikcaktus Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Hello Folks, I've been trying for the past 2 days to get my D630 running 10.7.4, and for the life of me, I cannot. I used a MBP running SL to get my original pen drive running using MyHack and the EDP with a DMG of Lion and proper bootpack, and it *seemed* to work and install, but after install I would get those bloody boot0 errors. Could not even get the terminal to run diskutil, could not run binaries. I figured the installer was borked. The MBP was not mine, so I don't have access to it anymore. Just my Win 7 system with a Lion VM (vmware). So I decided to load up my Lion VM, and try another flash drive and install. I used the MyHack, and then loaded the Extra Bootpack for my D630 - Intel - 1280x800, and now...well...shoot. It gets to the apple screen with the twirly loader, and then kernel panics. I ran -v to get the information, and it *seems* to be an issue with the X3100 drivers? I've been at this for two days...and...i'm about to pull my hair out. I know so very little about Mac OSX (well, I can use it, just don't know how to do all the cool driver stuff ya'll do), but I'm trying. Any help would be appreciated. D630 ATG A17 Bios C2D @ 2.6Ghz 4GB DDR2 Intel Crestline Graphics Bios 1588, 8MB (how weak is that) - 1280x800 Broadcom Wifi 40GB HD (AHCI mode enabled in bios). Here is a picture of the error in question... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted November 15, 2012 Administrators Share Posted November 15, 2012 When creating the myHack 10.7 installer, did you mount the InstallESD image/package found inside the Lion image or did you just mount to the main Lion image? You need to do the former, not the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to do the former, not the latter. The image I have is the install ESD image; inside is the Install Mac OSX Lion/library/packages/private/system. That's the one I've been using.

Administrators Hervé Posted November 16, 2012 Administrators Share Posted November 16, 2012 I'm beginning to wonder if the issue is not with the 10.7.4 version... It looks like the KP is due to ACPI rather than graphics and we all know the initial issues of updating Lion to 10.7.4: we had to revert to a previous ACPI kext (or was it IOPCIFamily?) to avoid dead machine... If you can, try an install an earlier version like 10.7.2 or 10.7.3, from which you would then update to 10.7.5 with EDP support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Hey! I found a 10.7.2 and that worked! Thank you! Any caveats/guides to getting it to 10.7.5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted November 17, 2012 Administrators Share Posted November 17, 2012 Great you got there and it seems you confirmed my suspicions. Just install/run EDP and then it's a straight update to 10.7.5 (combo update or direct software update). See the related post in Lion section of the forum.
