Clemaister Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Hi guys, I finally installed Mavericks on my HP Pavillon Dm1-4136sf (with AMD E450 processor) When I start my pc with no bootflags, it will loop reboot. If I type the bootflags PCIRootUID=1, PCIRootUID=0 or -legacy, it displays the apple logo screen (with no spinning wheel). If I do the same thing in verbose mode, it displays text lines at high speed, and then the screen go black. Of I course I tried other combination of boot flags. I already had this problem when trying to install Mavericks, and I solved it by modifying the mach_kernel. (Check this post for more info : https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/6330-stuck-at-apple-logo-no-spinning-wheel/) I was wondering if the mach_kernel used to boot Mavericks is the same than the one which was used for the installation boot. If it is the case how could I do to make it boot ? And if it is not how could I do to install this mach_kernel in the main hard drive ? Thank you for your time.

npjohnson Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 drop mach modified mach kernel onto the root of the hd and type mach_kernel at boot prompt, to copy, boot usb stick and use terminal to sudo cp over the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
