try removing the hardware id injection from the boot.plist use graphics enabler=yes and vbios also i think nvidia needs pciroot=1 use chameleon wizard and save. also update to newest chameleon 1791 or above

chame is a boot loader.... do you mean chameleon wizard? if it is then you need to update it, it has a bug.... to update kill internet, select choose chameleon from hdd turn on internet go to its menu bar and select update chameleon wizard

try booting -x -v

no easy way without being able to boot into osx. unless you know abd understand terminal commands... or connect the harddrive to another mac and delete it.

try the boot pack from wiki... or try booting with npci=0x2000

was the extra file for your model? try booting -x -v. and shut off the ethernet from bios during install... also intel wireless gives issues installing osx so if you have one remove it or disable it also in bios as it will not work in osx. if it's broadcom then you might be ok depending on which one it is.

it's a possability... i remember some one having the same issues with d630 awhile back... might have been Andy. not sure. but normaly edp should not dump kexts straight into s/l/e like that. only 0EDP.kext will go into s/l/e but that's in 2.2 for lion.

the contents of extra belong in the extra folder... not the root of the drive. Extra should be in root /Extra

WD Scorpio Black is a 4k sector drive. issue 129

remove fakesmc from s/l/e.... why it's there i don't know....

try making a new network.

well we have never tried edp with lion... so no clue 4 gigs really helps but if the processor works good in windows then in theory it should still work in osx just as well..

replace the chameleon one

glad it worked out for you... cheers!

what version of edp did you use.... 2.2 is lion only. 1.9.2 is snow

PCIRootUID=1 is normal for nvidia d630. -x kills certain drivers and caches, double check your machine to confirm video card in bios and build EDP for that type video. also look at your resolution while there you might have to set it in org.chameleon.Boot.plist now if your issue is during a snow leo install you might have issues detecting networks just tell it this computer does not connect to the internet. once it finishes then just run edp and build for your machine then reboot after edp finishes... if your card is compatible then it will ask to join networks on first boot.

boot -v -x at chameleon prompt and it should give a bit more info...

thanks scott we a appreciate that. especially with the amount of time that goes into keeping this all going.... not easy.

works great now... i have been running it all day and no complaints yet. i have yet to test vga though.

it kind of worked in snow leopard up until i think 10.6.7 and architecture was dropped from 10.6.8 and all lions.

need bios password like wiki states.

thats only there on machines with no dvd rom.... so you can network over to another machines dvd rom. for install purposes it's the macbook air smbios that activates the feature.

repair your disk permissions with disk utility

it came to dawn on me... are you booting in 64bit by any chance.... you can use the one in edp or newer... 1791 seems to work well
