jimiz Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Hi. I change PC, now I have ASROCK x79 Extreme 4 , i7 3930k , 16Gbram, Nvidia GTX 560 (normal , not Ti) Inside I have 3 Sata HDD... 1) win7 64bit 2) files 3) MAC osx The same was in the old PC. start begine boot windows and ask with OS i like to use (win7 or macosx) , and was working good, bur now in the NEW PC, I have many trouble to install a working MAC OSX... I try many differents way (from Iaktos l2 to many anothers dvd iso installations..) but wit no good results. 1) this mothers board, have not to jet a good support, so in many installation you must disable form bios , HT, CORES (set only 1) , USB 3.0. or installation freeze always. I have found only one good way , working... OS X 10.8.2 Install USB , a raw file to write in a 8GB usb key. On boot , I must edit the line in -v npci=0x2000 cpus=1 (or I have stop on pci recognise, or for the i7 cores trouble) when is finish the installation I update with few Kext , and I have a good working osx.... BUT.... I can boot only from the usb key ... infact I can't install a working boot, I download chameleon...but later I install nothing change.. I read the log file, and he say is ok installed in the 3' HDD ( macosx)... but I not found any dir of chameleon....(i386)...so , he are not really installed I think.. I'm afraid to compromise my working OSX now , only for the boot... any idea how I can do ? PS (no internet access with this pc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conti Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Can you use the usb key to boot your OS X installation? (select usb key at bios boot menut -> hit tab at the chameleon boot prompt -> select your internal hdd that you installed OS X on and hit enter). From there open myHack app, select 'Install Chameleon' option and target your / partition. This should fix the problem, if it does not you could try using myHack from the utilities menu on the OS X Installer, run "install chameleon' option, target the volume that contains your OS X installation. If neither of the above fix your bootloader on the internal partition let me know I could send you a beta that contains an updated Chameleon bootloader as well as some new installation routines that may help to resolve the issue if it persists.
