Trunyce Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Axel, is it possible to get the bootpack? The links are no longer active. I'm taking a break from my D430 for i can't seem to get it to boot after Lion 10.7.5 installation. I have the D630 with Nvidia graphics. Does your extra folder work with Mavericks? Thats what im planning to install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trunyce Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Lol @ Herve.. Thanks Axel, I will give yours a shot. How do i go about updating to 10.9.5 after the install? I've already got 10.9.2 install but I followed another guide on here. I will recreate the usb with your guide to see which one works better for me. Thanks for all your help.

Administrators Hervé Posted March 9, 2015 Administrators Share Posted March 9, 2015 You can update directly through the AppStore or via the Combo update. It's a straight update with nothing further to do afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trunyce Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I was able to update without a hitch, thanks guys. I just wish I could now get Lion to run properly on my D430 because it's smaller and easier to carry. Thanks a million to you guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trunyce Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 One issue I have is after I did everything Waldo mentioned in the previous post with the kexts, the I8k kext specifically, it always gives me an error upon myFix and my it won't boot if if I don't boot with -f or else it gets stuck at here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted March 9, 2015 Administrators Share Posted March 9, 2015 The thing with i8k is that you cannot automate its startup so you may want to forget about it. I do. If you cannot boot without -f flag, i.e. you need to boot without cache, your cache is obviously screwed and may not build because of the kext. On sure way to find out is to manually rebuild you cache and keep an eye on any possible error message indicating that cache cannot be build. In Terminal: sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions sudo kextcache -system-prelinked-kernel This being said, EDP was kind of screwing up all Latitude D series these last few months so you may want to skip it. I've posted a full Mavericks /Extra some time ago for the D630n. I can't remember in which thread exactly but look it up. Install it with myHack and no further need of EDP.

Trunyce Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Thanks Hervé, your suggestion worked. One thing I do notice though is that I would hear the fan spin a little loud and then it stops every other 10 seconds or so. Why do you suppose that is? Sleep/wake works nicely and everything else that I tried worked for the exception of iMessage. A big thank you to the Hackintosh gurus. I just wish my D430 could behave nicely like my D630.

Administrators Hervé Posted March 10, 2015 Administrators Share Posted March 10, 2015 The fan will work as and when required according to CPU and (especially) GPU T°. The nVidia GPU tends to run very hot on these laptops, so you can expect the fan to run high when running a GPU-hungry app; watching a you tube video for instance... We'll work out the D430 in parallel... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
