howoarang Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Hi, I have e6500 (the same configuration as e6400) and I used the instructions and Extra as listed in the E6400 guide posted here but my Yosemite installer won't boot. @Krzysztofc10: could you post every file or kext you use to boot yosemite installer on your latitude e6400? Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krzysztofc10 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Every files need to install and boot OSX I've just post You will find everything in my E6400 Yosemite topic. I will help you but i don't have Yosemite beta anymore :C Now I have old good Mountain Lion And graphics is super smooth In Yosemite Gui is slow on our Nvs 160, in Mavericks you can also feel that :C so I've just decided to wait for someone who will do great job and prepare drivers for our laptop 1.Create bootable USB but make sure that is formated to os x journaledand set GUID - Boot USB OS X Yosemite (Chameleon).zip use this simple installer 2.Extract and copy to root of your usb this Extra.zip 3.When you will boot you can use command -v -f Did you do that ?

howoarang Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 Yes, I have used the same procedure, but with Yosemite Beta Public. Maybe this is the problem. DP versions and Public beta are different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

howoarang Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 I've just write a Guide at the first page of this thread Try that! Cheers! Hi, I have tested your update procedure in 1st post and this is conclusion: 1. to prepare USB installer with DP1 and using usb.pkg utility, you must do this with it: Open USB.pkg, click Continue, Continue, Continue, Continue, Agree, Change Install Location to your USB, then CUSTOMIZE, and select Installer + chameleon (booth must by selected to install Chameleon boot loader to your USB), Install, write password... 2. copy Extra folder from 1st post to USB. (for my e6500 I do no changes with it in SMBIOS or Chameleon boot plist, I have same CPU 2,8GHz...) 3. using myHack.app to Quick fix the USB permission 4. restart laptop and boot from USB and then I have other problem -> missing kernel (USB.pkg utility do not copied kernel to USB/System/Library/Kernels/ I do not know why), so I downloaded kernel for DP1 from net and copied to the right folder to USB installer next step -> restart again and boot from USB and these are some errors: A) with boot flags -v -f with boot flags -v -f -x SO 10.10 DP1 on my Dell Latitude e6500 still wont boot.
