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

you can rebuild edp with different trackpad options... i believe the boot back uses the debug trackpad option 2... for graphics you can change it in org.chameleon.Boot.plist set it to your native resolution 1680x1050x32 . Graphics Mode 1680x1050x322 intel wifi does not work....

best results are to extract your own and patch. but not many people know how to patch correctly.

then your sata controler is not being detected... sometimes npci=0x2000 and or PciRoot=1 helps or you have to use ioata family from 10.6.7. or dsdt has to be patched for your ich again for some reason.

ok.. alot of things going there... "PCI configuration begin" message usually means your dsdt needs patching for chipset controller... what ever yours is. that's why you need the npci=0x2000 in chame... you can try using ioatafamily from 10.6.7 in s/l/e backup your existing first. the chameleon problem sounds like you might have installed chameleon to efi at one point. and if you did then that's where you have to edit the boot.plists for them to stick. if it keeps looking for bluetooth keyboard and mouse then go into bluetooth prefpane then advanced and uncheck search at startup mouse, keyboard.... first 2 boxes. make sure there unselected. for the printer i guess check what port it's printing too i don't know why it would do that.

ok it seemes it's the ethernet card... look closely. it's showing ip adress 0.0.0.0 and it is also trying to do a debug dump to network. shut off ethernet.
