Double post. Sorry...

Nice to see you back! Hopefully the nvidia board will work, and if it doesn't, at least I can help you with it.

Thank you! Glad tohear your card is working! The internet is better wireless! The sd card reader has not worked for me, despite many tries to get it to.

Hey Dj Lyriz, To be honest, I'm not sure what would cause the machine to turn off. Are you sure it turns off and not just the screen that goes blank? As far as I know, none of the enablers or injectors work with Mountain Lion...

The Intel wireless card really has no chance of working. Most intel cards don't work under OS X. The card you found from amazon may work. I think something like this would serve you better: http://www.amazon.com/Edimax-EW-7811Un-Wireless-Adapter-Wizard/dp/B005CLMJLU/ref=pd_cp_e_1 If you plan on keeping it plugged in when using the internet (which, depending on how you use it, could be for the life of the laptop), it will be less susceptible to damage and easier to use with the laptop.

An internal wireless card for the 6410 is relatively cheap. I found this one on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Broadcom-Wireless-Internet-Adapter-Netbooks/dp/B002OB0FPI

Great news! I'm glad it worked for you! Happy holidays to you too!

Hey malayvanti, Do you get to select the kexts to remove before the installation fails? Or does it fail before that?

Hey jebediah, I have not had any luck getting sleep to work on the E6410 even by changing the hibernatemode to 0; I pretty much gave up on it since. Because you managed to get it working once, I will try again this weekend. As for the touchpad, the 6400 has a Synaptics touchpad, which has better driver support under osx. Our 6410s however have Alps touchpads, which don't play too nice with the multitouch aspect of osx. Still, I keep checking now and then to see if anything new has been developed....

Hello all, I am sorry for the absence; Hurricae Sandy has kept me busy! The power was out until today and I had trees to take care of... Thank you Darvinko for giving everyone a heads up. I will reply to everyone's posts when I find the time today.

In the menubar, when facetime is open, I remember there being an option to choose which device(s) to use...

Thanks!

Great job! Do you think you could upload your modified kext here for voodoohda in case others have the same issue?

Hey jansenspencer, Thank you very much for giving me the information you did. It definitely helps! As for suggestions, I would try deleting (/moving to another location) all kext files beginning with AppleIntelHD from the USB installer in the \System\Library\Extensions directory. Let me know if you need more help/a more detailed explanation.

Intel Graphics or NVIDIA Graphics? Did you use the right E6410 ML zip file for your Mountain Lion version (ex. if you have the latest Mountain Lion installer (10.8.2) you have to use the latest E6410 ML.zip (E6410 ML 10.8.2.zip). Also, make sure you boot from the USB drive after you install and then select your hard drive/partition from the USB Bootloader...

Hey jebediah, Thank you very much for sharing that information! I will be honest in saying that I really didn't think to much about the CPU usage in Mountain Lion on are 6410s until I read it! I have added a link to your post to the end of the guide for now, and hope to integrate it when I am able to find the time. As for your questions asked at the end: I made the DSDT by using DSDT Editor and a patch for the 6410 under Mountain Lion, after I got about 90% of the machine working. I too was surprised when shutdown and reboot worked! After I applied the patch, I didn't do any tweaking. I simply applied it and fixed any errors that occurred (I can't remember if there were any; there may not have been) Safari has never really been a problem for me, even when using it with lots of tabs open. I did notice the fans turn on when under that kind of load, but it never froze up or rendered the system useless for any period of time. I may not be the best person to respond to your question, however, because I mainly use Chrome Once again, thank you very much!

After you ran my hack to create a 10.8 installer, did you reopen it to add an Extra folder?

Well, I'm out of ideas as to why that doesn't work. I've double checked the zip file and rebuilt and reinstalled ML on my machine and it works fine. Maybe try disconnecting anything that doesn't need to be connected (like any usb peripherals)... Also, there's an "Edit" button that should pop up under your post if you view it whilst signed in

Did you update your bios and apply the correct settings?

Well, it looks like you have the me mchine I have, and I don't know what else to say other than follow the guide in the first post. It has worked for me as well as katta, and we both have properly booting systems. My suggestion would be to try again from the Creating the Installer setion and use the E6410 ML 10.8.2.zip. Again, sorry I can't be of more help.

Post your hardware specs here and try waiting for about a couple minutes when it gets to that error..

On second thoughts, dont use the E6410 ML 10.8.2 zip. Use the 10.8.2 Kexts.zip and follow the instructions in Edit 9/22/12...

Then I guess the AppleACPIPlatform.kext from the 10.8.2 zip didn't get replaced on the installer for some reason... All that needs to happen now is that you need to use kext wizard to replace the kext I mentioned above on the usb installer...

Did you use the E6410 ML 10.8.2.zip to create the installer?

I don't think you did anything wrong (so far as I can tell from the information you have given me); this sometimes happens on Hacintosh systems. It says the install failed but in reality, everything went fine! If you can reboot into Mountain Lion, should be good. From there you can continue with the guide. If not, reboot with "-v" (without quotes) and post the place where it hangs at here. Good luck!
