kanglinyao Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I am a newbie here! Just registered. I have a Dell Latitude E5430. I can install OS X with unifail, but it will stuck at white apple. I can't even use the EDP on it. Do you have any suggestions for this laptop? Sorry for the long list of hardware report.

Administrators Hervé Posted September 30, 2013 Administrators Share Posted September 30, 2013 EDP is not compatible with the method you used to install OS X on your machine. If you intend to use EDP, you have to install OS X with myHack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckleea Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Please check if your SATA is using AHCI mode or not the default RAID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted September 30, 2013 Administrators Share Posted September 30, 2013 Indeed. I encountered the same problem on an E6420. The HDD was not visible from the OS X installer, however, if I took it out and connected it to a USB adapter, I could install OS X on it. On checking the BIOS, I found the HDD mode to be set to RAID. So, check your BIOS settings... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
