Installing ML 10.8.3 on Asus N56DP-AMD processor-MBR Disk
Hervé replied to dr_jacky_2005's topic in The Archive
The generic pack is Ok. Did you or did you not replace the vanilla (=Intel) kernel installed during installation on the HDD partition? What you did to the USB installer in that respect needs to be repeated on the ML HDD... You cannot use a vanilla Intel kernel on your AMD machine, so make sure you always replace the file called "mach_kernel" at USB or HDD root by the AMD version. Then boot with flags -f -v. -
E6400 Nvidia NVS 160M (not Intel GMA) Yosemite CLOVER Guide
Hervé replied to krzysztofc10's topic in The Archive
I've just tried to verify DW1395 operation under Mav 10.9 and Yos 10.10. DW1397 is similar but 1/2 size mini-PCIe. I could not get the card to work, whether using the dedicated mode BroadcomFamily43xx kext or patching the vanilla IO80211Family kext. Assume DW1397 to be unsupported and needing replacement under Yosemite... https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/2120-supportedunsupported-wireless-cards-inventory/ -
Installing ML 10.8.3 on Asus N56DP-AMD processor-MBR Disk
Hervé replied to dr_jacky_2005's topic in The Archive
Which kernel did you choose to go for? You did follow up the initial installation with vanilla (Intel) kernel replacement, right? Did you install the generic bootpack when building your myHack USB installer, then install it too at the end of the myHack installation? -
Installing ML 10.8.3 on Asus N56DP-AMD processor-MBR Disk
Hervé replied to dr_jacky_2005's topic in The Archive
Use boot flags -f -v to see what happens. -
Yes: start by giving us some setup info/system specs...

Installing ML 10.8.3 on Asus N56DP-AMD processor-MBR Disk
Hervé replied to dr_jacky_2005's topic in The Archive
Once you've formatted (Mac OS X Extended (journaled)) your freshly created OS X partition, you install ML on it! If the HDD partitioning table is MBR, make sure to use the MBR patch too. NB: If you don't want to risk losing any data in the process, I'd make some image/backup of your existing Windows/data partitions 1st if I were you... One is never too cautious, especially if a beginner. -
Dell Precision Workstation T5400 - "Still waiting for root device"
Hervé replied to Dominik's topic in The Archive
You only extract a DSDT if you intend to patch it; otherwise it's useless, Chameleon can read it from BIOS directly. Post your raw extracted DSDT and we'll see what we can do with it. You also need to extract your IOReg using a tool such as IORegistryExplorer. Download it and save the output to a file. Post that file too and tell us which version of IORegistryExplorer you used. Ideally, you should try and boot without DSDT and a default bootpack that will have the outmost minimum kext set: FakeSMC + PS2 controller + NullCPUPowerManagement eventually. You could always download myHack v3.3.1 and extract the generic bootpack found inside the app. -
Check your BIOS for graphics card selection, then boot with Chameleon option GraphicsEnabler=Yes

Dell Precision Workstation T5400 - "Still waiting for root device"
Hervé replied to Dominik's topic in The Archive
Why would you use the DSDT of a Precision 690? You should never do that sort of thing (use another computer's DSDT) unless the systems are very closely related and based on the same hardware (like Inspiron 530 and Vostro 200 or Latitude D630 and D830 for instance). Try a manual installation with Chameleon and then extract your DSDT from BIOS; we'll then see if to needs patching. -
https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/2467-dell-latitude-d430-intel-gma950-ml-with-full-qeci/ --> EDIT - 20Aug 2014: ------------------------- Bootpack edited following report of missing Broadcom LAN kext. Pack is now fully loaded with all necessary kexts, modules and plists and no post-install EDP is really required for hardware fine tuning.
-
Which card do you have? Are you sure it's enabled in BIOS and that the left-hand side switch is not on the Off position?
-
Yes, I confirm.

Identify your card and patch accordingly if necessary... https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/2120-supportedunsupported-wireless-cards-inventory/

Asus UX31A - help needed for battery management + audio
Hervé replied to qfreddie's topic in The Archive
Look for the SSDT generator script at Piker Alpha or RampageDev's blogs. For audio, did you try the VoodooHDA + AppleHDADisabler at all? -
Asus UX31A - help needed for battery management + audio
Hervé replied to qfreddie's topic in The Archive
You battery drain issue could be due to lack of proper CPU power management. 3 things to consider/check/deploy: . the use of a suitable/recent FakeSMC kext . generation of a CPU-specific SSDT file (for Turbo boost + intermediary CPU multipliers) . use of HWMonitor tool to monitor CPU speed stepping/power management -
Are you using a SSDT file generated for your specific i5-3320M CPU? If not, you're highly likely to encounter CPU power management issues for sure. You can generate your own SSDT using the well-known generator script. It's available from Piker's or RampageDev's blogs. You'll easily find it along with full instructions. Then, to avoid the need to boot without cache (-f flag), I suggest you manually rebuilt your kext cache. From Terminal, run the following commands: sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions sudo kextcache -Boot -U / Of course, make sure to boot with the option kext-dev-mode=1.

Dell Inspiron 1520 with x3100 and Mountain Lion 10.8.0 and 10.8.2
Hervé replied to joe10190's topic in The Archive
Good. You can ignore the "ML update/installation failed" messages, most of our Hackintoshes experience that with ML. -
No HDMI audio and Desktop not fitting Panasonic Plasma
Hervé replied to joe10190's topic in The Archive
When I output display to my Sony HD TV through HDMI, I have to use the underscan feature to adjust the picture so that it fits properly on screen. -
I would expect you to need a serial number that appears like a real Mac one. They do not start with "VM". Download Chameleon Wizard and go to the SMBIOS tab and you'll see the type of number AppStore will expect.

What's the problem with the battery indicator? Percentage charge indicator is something you can hide through the Finder bar icon. No DSDT patch involved... -

HDMI certainly is. Jake having provided details for the Azul framebuffer patch, I was able to verify HDMI operation on my mobile HD4600-based Latitude E6440 laptop as described here.

On a 'native' Hackintosh, a SMBIOS plist is used to simulate a real Mac model and generate a serial number. You're probably missing that specific part and it's one of the key components required to be able to run/log in AppStore.

It's not universal, no. Wireless support totally depends on the wifi hardware fitted to the computer. Some cards work OOB, some work with patched kexts, some work with dedicated added software/kexts and some do not work. So you need to identify what you currently have. Please note that Intel wireless cards are not supported under OS X (Apple not using such Intel hardware in real Macs, there are no drivers). If you can't replace the existing card, you may opt for a small USB dongle. There's a non-exhaustive list of supported/unsupported cards in R&D->Hardware->Wifi forum sub-section.
