The issue here Herve is - that it keeps showing up in the AppStore as an update still to be applied - won't go away.

I have a great functioning nVidia D630 running 10.8.5 thati s having problems installing the latest Security Update 2014-005. I have tried up install it using the AppStore and I have downloaded the DMG for it. Each time I have tried installing it, the installation process runs for quite a while, I reboot, it continues installing after the reboot and I finally get "Installation Failed - contact Apple Support" and it reverts back. Anyone else had this issue? Or can anyone point me to log files where I might find out what is causing the installation failure? Thanks

That was indeed the case - as soon as I move the AHCI kexts into the original package, it all worked!

Thanks Patel I found that the AHCI kext's were missing in the S:L:E directory on the original E6410 ML.zip package. I copied the ones from the E6410 10.8.1 ML.zip package and rebuilt the installation USB. I'm in the process of checking that one out and installing at the moment. If that doesn't work, I will go to the Mavericks one and see what happens with that.

As a follow up, I built the installer with the 10.8.1 ML pack to start - and I get the same message about the failed install - so - I am guessing there is something missing from the 10.8 ML pack - I will see what the differences are between the two - I'm guessing there is something missing in the S:L:E directory on the 10.8 ML pack...

Jake - yes - it is on AHCI - when I go into the BIOS settings, it is there. When I boot initially from the USB and it gives me the options to boot from, the old HD is there too - it's just once I boot from the USB that it's not available.

I'm hoping someone can point to this quickly. I have followed Patel4Prez's guide exactly for the E6410 with ML, including the additional top from coldsun1187 about using the E6410 ML.zip as well as the E6410 10.8.4.zip. I built the USB perfectly. Now however, when I boot from the USB, my HD (80Gb) drive is not displayed in the Disk Utility in order to format it and install to it. I have checked and I have IOATAFamily.kext in System:Library:Extensions. Anyone point to a quick fix for this? Thanks.

Yes - MLPF v0.3 and the resolution is 1920X1200.

I have used the HiRes DSDT for MLPF and it works great. After running MLPF, the machine boots, but then I get the same black screen on the regular boot. I have copied the HiRes DSDT to the regular partition, and the machine will not boot - even with wireless disabled. I tried to put the HiRes DSDT with the lores bootpack and regenerate the MyHack installation - it won't install - just hangs after about 20 minutes...won't go any further and that is with wireless enabled and disabled - any ideas anyone?

Sorry - I didn't get a chance to do until a little while ago - yes - it is the HiRes screen - I will put the HiRes DSDT into the Extra.. Thanks

I'm guessing it's safe to use the Lion HiRes pack as I don't see a ML pack on the compatibility page right? Thanks

Herve I select the USB stick to boot from (that is how I created the ML PF installer) and type: DSDT=/Extra/DSDT.aml arch=i386 -f Thanks

Hello all I am following this guide https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/2468-dell-latitude-d830-intel-gma-x3100-ml-with-full-qeci/ - I am working with ML 10.8.5. In the guide, I get to this step 6 under the ML Post Factor section: reboot off your initial ML disk/partition, interrupt the boot process at the Chameleon delay bar and select this newly created installer with options & flag: DSDT=/Extra/<dsdt filename> arch=i386 -f I enter this, it loads the white screen, and then the screen goes blank. I tried adding -v as well and it loads fine to the point I guess when it is loading the video drivers - that is when the screen goes blank. I have downloaded all the files from the guide, followed it step by step. Anyone else had this issue? Any ideas that I can follow? Thanks Mark

Yes - it's a MyHack installation - it put the correct everyhing in SMBIOS.plist. After further research, I realized that was going to be an issue - I did run Safari and saw the issue. Thing is I'm going on vacation tomorrow, so it will have to wait until I get back. Instead - I'll take my perfectly working D630 with 10.9 on vacation....

Updated: Resolved the en0 issue - had to restart with wireless disabled so the LAN interface became en0 and now the Wireless is en1 - still can't access the AppStore - so - will search further.
