i have both ssd's and i never was impressed by the EVO. heck i do not even use it. i use the m4's instead.

checked if there on latest firmware?

add nullcpu kext to the extra folder and run a my fix quick on the thumb drive.

those partitions are normal. the first one is usually reserved for EFI, and the third one is a boundary partition. have you hit the space bar when you get to that screen you posted?

if your cpu is not the same as the extra you are using remove the ssdt.aml in it.

ok im glad to hear at least it's stable now. cheers!

the ribbon is very finicky and sometime looks like it is seated proper but it is not also the clip sometimes locks locked but is not. on a run core i installed the socket was taller and the ribbon did not fit tight.

mixing methods might interfere later down the road. as they use 2 different methods.

some pcie slots do not have the usb pins wired which is whats used on that card for bluetooth. i have that issue on an HP Elite.

you need to try different frame buffer values or different frame buffers till you get a normal screen. for more info boot with -v flag

i have a 9010 and i need to patch the kernel i also need nullcpu. the generic boot pack should get you started but you need to patch the kernel on the usb stick and then again after install on the os. i don't know if it's the same but in bios i had to set the cpu graphics as primary. in chameleon i had to try different intel frame buffer values till it finally booted to a normal screen.

hmm you could just disable the switch in bios if it is acting up. also you may have bad permissions on either the image you used to make the pen drive or the installer pen might have bad permissions. as a side not do you keep using the same usb port? maybe since the switch seems flaky maybe the usb ports need it are also affected like liquid spill or a hard drop? i would also maybe re seat the hard drive a few times just incase.

x3100 in lion on 32bit arch should have accel. any os past that will not support x3100 graphics so a goal of maverick is un obtainable there is no support coded into them for it as they are 64 bit os's after lion.

is the repo it is pulling from active. i had an issue before where the repo had changed i think it was with firmware cutter.

looks more like a internet connection issue since it could not resolve the IP it was looking for.

apple did kill off some wifi cards during the update successions, users had to revert to an older airportd file located at /usr/libexec/airportd to be able to use it again.

wow thats should not happen with an installer. something must be defective on the machine or the usb stick.

switch on the side of the laptop off?

some one on the forum had docking stations working on some E series. i think his solution was he needed 2 dsdt's one docked one undocked.

sounds like you might have to retry the capriFB's again or see if adding back <key>device-properties</key> <string>5e0000000100000001000000520000000100000002010c00d041030a000000000101060000027fff04002c0000004100410050004c002c00690067002d0070006c006100740066006f0072006d002d006900640000000800000003006601</string> helps. if not you have to edit the graphics frame buffer.

yeah not sure. you would have to replace it with the one that works for you. so to sort that out maybe try booting without DSDT using the boot flag DSDT=null to see if you can get graphics loading. with one on the frame buffer values. hmm i wonder if they changed the PciRoot value also in the bios update. i see the plist has it as 1. i also do not see DualLink specified in the plist. you can add it with chameleon wizard. well if you have an osx machine running to do edits on.

intel wifi will not work in osx. you need to replace the wifi card. for audio try VoodooHDA 2.8.5 if you have issues with it you have to modify the info.plist inside the kext to suit your needs.
