kmand Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I have a D620 running Snow Leopard. via EDP. I also have a Macbook Pro running ML. I used migration assistant to copy some apps from the hackintosh to the Macbook. It seemed to work and the Macbook is fine but now the D620 dies with boot0: GPT boot0: test boot0: test boot0: done on boot. I've seen this reported elsewhere and tried several of the suggestions, but none has worked. In particular I have taken the D620 drive out and attached via USB to the Macbook and tried: reinstalling chameleon on the SL slice with the chameleon installer. using dd to copy boot1 onto the SL slice removing all the .SM.gul* files on the SL slice. None of this made a bit of difference. Any other suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted November 23, 2012 Administrators Share Posted November 23, 2012 Which Cham version did you try to re-install on that D620 HDD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmand Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 Which Cham version did you try to re-install on that D620 HDD? I tried 2.1. I ran it from the Macbook and when it asked me what destination I chose the slice that had the SL on the D620 disk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted November 23, 2012 Administrators Share Posted November 23, 2012 Do you have multiple partitions on that HDD? Which type of partitioning does it have, MBR or GUID? Did you try and boot off a USB pen (like an installation key), then select your HDD Mac OS partition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you try and boot off a USB pen (like an installation key), then select your HDD Mac OS partition? Yes, I have multiple partitions. Its GUID #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER 0: GUID_partition_scheme *160.0 GB disk1 1: EFI 209.7 MB disk1s1 2: Apple_HFS First 90.0 GB disk1s2 3: Apple_HFS Lion 16.2 GB disk1s3 4: Apple_HFS Lion 2 53.3 GB disk1s4 s2 is the SL partition. s4 is Lion. I don't use the LION much since it tends to crash a fair amount. s3 is a small partition I used in constructing s4. Haven't tried a usb boot, don't have an appropriate one at the moment. When I reinstalled chameleon I specified the s2 partition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted November 24, 2012 Administrators Share Posted November 24, 2012 the first partition that you installed chameleon on would be the one to reinstall it on. it wont work from other partitions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmand Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 the first partition that you installed chameleon on would be the one to reinstall it on. it wont work from other partitions. Well there is only one other partition the s4 Lion partition. I tried installing chameleon their, and still the same result boot0: GPT boot0: test boot0: test boot0: done then nothing. I did find an old usb pen drive with a bootable OSX on it. If I boot off of it, I gets the same 4 boot0 messages and then the pen drive takes over. From their I can select the SL s2 partition and it does boot up very slowly but fine once it up, and I can then eject the pen drive. I just don't get why I can't boot directly off the hard drive.

Administrators Bronxteck Posted November 28, 2012 Administrators Share Posted November 28, 2012 probably a 4k sector drive. use the myhack chameleon installer. it usually fixes 4k sector drive issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember this was working fine on SL and only broke when I used migration assistant to copy files to a real macbook, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
