Oris Rake Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Hi. Decided to install lion on my d630. Made USB install via myHack and using kext for d630 with intel supplied by one of forum member. everything worked fine except no touch pad and keyboard. Have external mouse and KB so no problem. Installed Lion. Reboot via USB to lion partition and I get stuck on setup assistant. I choose keboard layout click next and nothing happens. Busy wheel keep spinning. Tried also removing Lines in info.plist of setup assistant but that didn't help. Any ideas? EDIT: That pack im using was made by simeonoff in this post https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/526-osx-lion-on-d630/page__view__findpost__p__3720 BTW Atm i only got windows machine. So cant redo whole process Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted August 9, 2011 Administrators Share Posted August 9, 2011 sounds like you didn't add kexts to the installer's S/L/E or extra folder. try repairing the permissions of the install media with disk utility or repair the disk. worst case scenario you have a corrupt installer and or catch.

Oris Rake Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 (edited) Hey! Thanks for reply! Well myHack asked my to point for Extra folder when it was creating install USB stick, also there is /Extra folder with kexts on Install USB. Also Setup Assistant show up after succesful install when it boots from HDD. Since i dont have atm working OSX install I can only use terminal in USB install mode. Tried coping Lion Extensions to /Extra but it didnt help. Should i try copy it to S/L/E using Terminal? Also dont have installed Chameleon on HDD yet hence booting off USB and poiting at Lion Partition there. PS. Should i boot with arch=i386 flag? Edit: Tried coping kext straight into S/L/E no changes Edited August 9, 2011 by Oris Rake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted August 9, 2011 Administrators Share Posted August 9, 2011 just putting kexts in extra does not load the kext you have to build an .mkext yes you need arch=i386 and you might also need cpus=1. there is a program called kext wizard which can help you with kexts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oris Rake Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 Unless i can run kext wizard when booting from Install USB i'm screwed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Bronxteck Posted August 9, 2011 Administrators Share Posted August 9, 2011 if you use a guide partition you can resize partitions at any time. so you could have both SL and lion on the same hdd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oris Rake Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 Good to know I guess I'll spend few hours installing Snow and then again try play with Lion... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
