Moderators Jake Lo Posted November 6, 2013 Moderators Share Posted November 6, 2013 Ok, in the meantime, you could upgrade your installer to 3.3.1 by downloading itRun myHack, select install myHack Utilities and point to the USB InstallerThen run myHack again and select Install Chameleon and point to the USB InstallerIf you encounter the error below installing the utility, go to the installer S/L/E and delete myHack.kext and start again.

trafsta Posted November 7, 2013 Author Share Posted November 7, 2013 lol. whoops, I tried the 'AppleIntelCPUPowerMangement fix' or 'patch' or whatever its called in the new myhack 3.3.1 and it blew up my 10.8.5 partition... -f -v -x doesn't even work... oh well... I had a bit of time (my 1 month old kid finally fell asleep for a while) so I tried redoing my 10.9 installer USB and I've tried a few different ways but I always get "The OS X installation couldn't be completed" when I boot from it and it forces me to shutdown or reboot... never seen that before using myhack 3.2 beta 8. I think I'm going to take a break from this for a while and regroup at a later time... Especially since I only have a 10.6.8 D420 left now and it can't even run the latest myhack on it (incompatible with 10.6.8) to make another USB installer (and too lazy to reinstall 10.8.5 for the millionth time). steno, I'm leaving it up to you to figure it out and give detailed instructions on how to get 10.9 installed lol Anyways, thanks for all your help everyone. I'll definitely keep monitoring this thread to see how it progresses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted November 7, 2013 Administrators Share Posted November 7, 2013 You should be able to make a Mavericks 10.9 installer with myHack 3.2/3.3 from SL 10.6.8. It's making a SL installer that can be problematic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trafsta Posted November 7, 2013 Author Share Posted November 7, 2013 myhack won't even run on my D420 10.6.8 laptop unless I run 3.1.x or older which doesn't support 10.9. Might have something to do with it not being a Core 2 Duo (it's just a Core Duo) - no 64bit support. I had used my sisters real Macbook Pro with 10.6.8 (intel Core i7 64bit) to make my 10.9 USB installer a month or so ago. Won't be seeing her for a few more weeks and I have no other access to real Macbooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted November 7, 2013 Administrators Share Posted November 7, 2013 Fair enough, I've no non-C2D systems, so never actually verified that particular point. I indeed used v3.1.x when I briefly had a D420 earlier this year. Meantime, I guess you'd have to make a small partition at the end of your E6220 HDD with ML on it then...

ckleea Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 It is a bit unusual for me. myHack should work and I have created my USB installer stick from an 10.9 image download directly from apple store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
