kartagis Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Hi, I have a Lenovo laptop with 10.6.0 installed on it. I'm trying to install L on it with the 10.7 USB installer I made with myHack 3.0. I hit F12 on boot, select USB (myHack installer), boot off it, then go to DU to wipe off the hard disk, only to find out the disk is not recognized. If I use Chameleon to boot off it, the laptop restarts itself. I am quite puzzled. What to do? Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conti Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Is your HDD on SATA and is AHCI enabled? If not, can you enable AHCI? If not, you can try to use IOATAFamily.kext as described in the guide - it's not recommended though and certainly won't work on ML but may work on Lion (I've never tested it, but I have deployed it a few times on 10.6). If it is in AHCI mode but you still have the issue, it might be a bad HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kartagis Posted May 3, 2012 Author Share Posted May 3, 2012 I enabled AHCI and will have to see that later. Thanks a lot Conti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kartagis Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 Hi, After so long, I enabled AHCI and successfully installed. However, it's stuck at the screen where the setup says I don't have a keyboard attached. Any fix regarding this? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conti Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Ya, plug a USB keyboard in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kartagis Posted June 16, 2012 Author Share Posted June 16, 2012 Ya, plug a USB keyboard in. I only need it at the time of setup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
