photo attached, This is myhack with the 10.9 kernel compiled from source and booted with flag -v -x -f GraphicsEnabler=No

 

The source doesnt include certain power management processes and is bootable.

 

when you make the my hack usb replace the kernel mach with this one http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/files/file/173-109-kernel-xcpm-free/ and use the above boot arguments, when the grey screen and cursor appear just wait the installation windows takes about 3-5 mins to load ;)

Got help from a guy named RehabMan and got me really far.

 

So far I can boot into my laptop without my USB on Mavericks. I don't need to boot in safeboot and I got my Intel HD4400 Graphics working as well with "IntelAzulFB=12" flag in Chameleon bootloader. (One of my issues was the mach_kernel which I had to swap and I needed to install KernelPatcher to fix the panic and random reboots)

 

Now, my biggest issues for days has been trying to get my ethernet working. I replaced the kext and still can't figure out. My ethernet is recognized but it says "Self-assigned IP" so not sure how to fix this.

 

I was getting annoyed with the ethernet and figured I'll just buy a PCI-e wifi card which should be coming in the mail that should be compatible.

 

My biggest headache it seems is trying to get my audio, as there is no AppleHDA patch for my sound driver, which, after doing a codec dump is ALC283, which as far as I've seen, has no patch yet. So trying to create my own patch following some guides has been the MOST confusing thing ever lol... If anyone can help me with the sound would be greatly appreciated.

 

Right now I'm on UBUNTU on my laptop because I need it for internet lol.. 😕

P.S. Thank you guys for the response, I had no idea people had been responding to me.

have you tried forcing the ip settings on you network adaptor incase its a dhcp issue? maybe try something far into the subnet range to avoid conflics, ip:192.168.1.50 255.255.255.0 default gate way probably 192.168.1.1 unless your routers ip is different?

 

Yeeah I noticed my sound id reported as Device ID 10EC-0283 pointing towards the realtek 283. I will have a go later on!

 

Couple of questions... idoes it run smoothly? what about the webcam?

and lastly how the hell do you restore these machines to windows 8?

I'm very new to this whole process so it has been a lot of trial and error, screwing up, reinstalling, asking a million questions. In regards to my ethernet, how would I get the correct ip for my router as you are saying?

I'm trying a patch guide myself to see if I can get my audio working, which is like gibberish and another language but I have gotten at least a quarter through so far lol...

 

My Mavericks does run smoothly, I am using Chameleon and with IntelAzulFB=12 I was able to successfully boot up with my graphics fully working. My mousepad and keyboard are working but my camera does not yet work (which isn't a huge deal to me yet) and my wifi or ethernet does not work.

Currently I'm waiting for a wifi card to be shipped to me and I am going to install it and mess around with that to get my wifi online (hopefully).

In regards to Windows, I'm waiting on that until I have Mavericks fully functioning then I'm going to use disk utility and partition my HDD and try and dual boot (later on tho) and hopefully it's successful. This is quite the project, especially for a noob like myself lol, but I enjoy learning.

I recently gotten a Dell E7240 with Haswell processor i5-4300u. For me to get full graphics, I have IntelAzulFB=12 and GraphicsEnabler=Yes. Also to get webcam detected, I need to boot without boot cache (-f switch).

Wifi works now and I have Windows booted as well. I also fixed my brightness issue with the ability to increase and decrease brightness from my keyboard with a few dsdt.aml patching.

However, although VooDooHDA works for me, I cannot yet find a patch for my AppleHDA. Ive been looking and looking for days for a patching for my Realtek ALC283 on multiple forums, with little to no success. Does anyone know anything about patching AppleHDA for Realtek 283? I can give you whatever files you need
