    XPS 420 Not Booting - Stop Sign on Apple Screen

    in The Archive

    Posted

    Boss, thanks for everything.

    I replaced org.chameleon.Boot.plist.zip with yours = didn't work

     

    Tried typing PciRoot=4 in Chameleon Boot - nothing.

     

    I tried adding your code to DSDT but can't seem to compile it.

    I added my Freshly extracted DSDT (Via DSDT Editor) to my DropBox under DSDT Extract.

    See if you can assist. Thanks !

     

    one more thing -

    On my DELL BIOS options, I can choose for Video Card

    PCI or PEG. I tried both, neither works. Does it matter ?

    Chef,

    thanks for the tips and help.

     

    I tried changing PCIRootUIT=1-4 in org.chameleon.Boot.plist.

    To no avail

     

    Here's a link to a swamp of riddles - all my hackintoshly goods:

    https://www.dropbox.com/sh/bif0d9p118g1ulq/RSl3gg2VWG

     

    Folder Contents:

    • dsdt.aml / dstdt.dsl - Extracts with DSDT Editor

    • EggFactory Mac Pro - IORegistryExplorer output

    • Extra Folder Screen Shot

    • org.chameleon.Boot.plist

    • TXT doc of S/L/E - I noticed there are some GeForce + NV kexts. Should they stay ?

    • Last, dsdt folder which contains the CURRENT dsdt - I got it online. I'm sure it's not 100% compatible.

     

    Another question - Is it necessary to install CUDA / Nvidia drivers ?

     

    thanks !

    RB

    Updates ! Updates !

    OK. managed to get the sleeping beauty to wake up.

    I had a little AHCI-kext bonanaza. Also added a dsdt.

     

    HOWEVER -

    Video is 1024

    No ethernet.

     

    Any ideas ?

     

    Will yank the video card and see - however this machine was a functional SL machine 3 years ago,

    until someone bricked it with a careless system update. So I know the video card worked fine.

    Thanks.

    Here's my Setup:

    Mobo: Dell XPS420, BIOS A07

    Processor: Intel Core2  Quad 2.4GHz

    Memory: 2GB DDR2 667mhz, ML (in progress)

    Drives: System Drive: WD 2TB (Partitioned to 2)

    Video Card: Asus (not sure which)

    Network - on-board ethernet.

    -v hangs in "Still Waiting for Root Device"

     

    Boot Options - BIOS - I have "Sata Operation" with

    RAID Autodetect / ATA or RAID on

     

    The weird thing is that even though on the boot sequence I can see my internal drive - and I could also install ML on it.

    But now for some weird reason if I boot using myHack, the internal drive is not showing,

    can't see the drive in Disk Utility / myHack utility.

     

    thanks !
