Hi Mirone,

 

Sorry I didn't credit you for the AppleHDA patching and DSDT. Since it wasn't fully working on my system, I just want others to give it a try.

Your contribution is greatly appreciated.

Hi,

I finally had time to try to install osx. 
 
I copied the haswell pre-patched kernel from here to the root filesystem of USB ( 10.8.5 )
and added to the boot parameter cpus = 1, but after a while I get the kernel panic shown in the image.
 
Excuse me, but I am novice to OSX Latitude.
Can someone help me ( I have dell Latitude E6540 )?
 
Greetings

that kernel is for 10.9 not 10.8.5

there is a patch for 10.8.5 here

you have to apply it to the original kernel using terminal app

 

Thanks for you reply.

I download Maverick ( 10.9 ) and apply correct patch to the root fs of USB.

Now retry to start installation, but I keep seeing the words that is repeated : "Still waiting for root device".

 

What can I do?

Greetings

Hi,

looking on the net I read that to fix the problem reported in the previous post I had to add the kext in the directory Extra / Extensions. 
I added the kext, but I have the following problem later ( see image below ): 
 
Here are the steps taken for those who want to try installing Maverick on E6540: 
 
MyHack used to create a USB with Maverick 10.9 
Copied to the root of the USB pre-patched kernel 
Copied to the root / Extra / Extensions ( zip attached )
 
Someone can help me?
Many Thanks.
