  1. Sorry Hervé, I'm a regular Unix guy with no real insights in the inner workings of EDP. Running myfix was unknown to me until post #18 :-S Bringing the machine up with your /Extra was better this time (I notice a new splash screen, a "chromish" apple instead of the previous OSXlatitude logo) and I have keyboard. I still don't have full network though - System Settings say Ethernet is connected but I have no route to remote hosts, even if I enter IP settings manually. I'm travelling for a week now so I will return to try to fix this when I get back. I hope I'll meet you here on the forums again then Thanks for all the help so far Mike
  2. I entered the settings just like you wrote, so either the EDP installation is broken or the behaviour of EDP rev 679 is unexpected for both of us. Even to me as a layman the end result in /E/E doesn't look like it corresponds much to what I entered. F ex, could I even make EDP settings to get several different battery kexts installed? I noticed that EDPweb listed the myHack keyboard driver you recommended as 64-bit, and you warned me about 64-bit, could this have something to do with things? Yes, if it is feasible to hack this manually I think it would be the best. I did try your Extra folder back in post 4 without any improvements (but lost keyboard). But then I just replaced the folder without running myfix, is that the important part?

root wheel 56136 12 Okt 22:16 FileNVRAM.dylib So to be clear, what you suggest I do now is: (sudo bash) rm /Extra/Extensions/* cp /Extra.herve/Extensions /Extra/Extensions cp /Extra.herve/org.chameleon.Boot.plist /Extra cp /Extra.herve/smbios.plist /Extra myfix -t "/Volumes/Mac OS X Lion" -q (reboot) Thanks Mike
  3. I can see in Extra.backup folders that I've had AppleBCM5751Ethernet.kext previously, so I added that to /E/E, ran myfix -q, and rebooted. Still no network but now system settings say that network has no IP address instead of cable disconnected.
  4. Comparing with your /E/E folder it looks like I am actually missing the keyboard and Ethernet kexts, right?
  5. The contents of /Extra/Extensions after the build I just did on rev 679 (which is the only kind of build I can do without network) is: AppleACPIBatteryManager.ext AppleACPIPlatform.kext AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext AppleSmartBatteryManager.kext AppleSmartBatteryManager2.kext FakeSMC.kext NullCPUPowerManagement.kext Patched_10.7_AppleRTC.kext SleepEnabler.kext VoodooBattery.kext VoodooPState.kext VoodooTSCSync.kext lspcidrv.kext (I typed this list manually so there may be typos)
  6. Ok, so still not really there yet but now I boot without delay to graphical desktop. I had to use the existing EDP rev 679 as I didn't manage to get networking running. After doing the steps from previous posts I have the following remaining problems: keyboard and trackpad doesn't work (but I can use a USB keyboard/mouse) network isn't working (system settings say cable is disconnected but it's not) Should I change the procedure somehow considering I'm running rev 679, so I can update to latest and then do it all over again?
  7. Ok, so to confirm I will do take these files from your /Extra: /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist /Extra/smbios.plist /Extra/Extensions/FakeSMC.kext to my: /Extra/include/org.chameleon.Boot.plist /Extra/include/smbios.plist /Extra/include/Extensions/FakeSMC.kext and then run EDPWeb. I can see that GMA950 brightness fix is already selected, Does it all look good? (crossing fingers
  8. Great, looking forward to hearing from you later then Your view on updates is very interesting to know more about. I have tried to stay up-to-date with new EDP versions thinking that it will improve over time. Usually I have done EDP update + build after every Apple Program Update, even if just iTunes is updated. But are you saying it is better not to update+build EDP? Having native SpeedStep sounds good. But these tweaks are not achievable through EDP settings and have to be manually added? Is there a list of interesting manual tweaks somewhere? Thanks for all help Mike
  9. I will certainly not reboot until I feel as safe as I can :-S Yes, BIOS is A09. Default build options may be wrong you say? Very interesting - maybe this is what started the problems in the first place. As every time before I just accepted the defaults when doing the update that gave me the problems. I'm not fluent in what options are important. Could you help me and point out which ones could need tweaking? Best regards Mike
  10. CPU is Intel Core 2 Duo U7600 1.2 GHz and it has 2GB RAM. Here's the output of lspci for the rest: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/PM/GMS, 943/940GML and 945GT Express Memory Controller Hub (rev 03) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family PCI Express Port 1 (rev 01) 00:1c.2 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family PCI Express Port 3 (rev 01) 00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family USB UHCI Controller #1 (rev 01) 00:1d.1 USB controller: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family USB UHCI Controller #2 (rev 01) 00:1d.2 USB controller: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family USB UHCI Controller #3 (rev 01) 00:1d.3 USB controller: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family USB UHCI Controller #4 (rev 01) 00:1d.7 USB controller: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family USB2 EHCI Controller (rev 01) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge (rev e1) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801GBM (ICH7-M) LPC Interface Bridge (rev 01) 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) IDE Controller (rev 01) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family SMBus Controller (rev 01) 09:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5752 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 02) I've managed to get back into the graphical desktop by: Copying the /Extra folder from another D430 I have access to Choosing the Boot Ignore Caches option on the boot splash screen Waiting about an hour while laptop showing black screen and sporadic disk activity Pressing a key to light up the screen So what is best to do now? Remove /Extra and /Applications/EDP.app and then do a new install+build of EDP?
  11. Ok, so the reply in the other thread is that I need graphical desktop to install a fresh EDP and do a new build. What can I try to get back to my desktop?
  12. Oh, ok, I thought it could be completely console based as older versions of EDP ran with a terminal interface. But maybe myFix is called upon, and needs the graphical desktop? I already have a "support thread" going under the Dell forums: https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/6059-startup-hanging-after-edp-update-and-config-on-d430/ so I'll hope for responses there then Thanks Mike
  13. I'm thinking this question may have interest for a wider audience than just Dell D4xx users, so I posted it here: https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/6065-reinstall-edp-from-command-line-in-single-user-mode/
  14. An update made my EDP build unbootable. I can still log in to single-user mode with a text-mode console. The problems may be related to EDP directory changes so I'd like to start over from scratch, wipe out the current fixes, and install a fresh EDP. How to clean out old EDP? Is is enough to wipe everything in /Extra /Applications/EDP.app ? How to install new EDP? I have transferred the latest Install_EDP to the machine using a USB stick, but the installation uses the graphical desktop (Window Server) so nu luck there. How can I install EDP from the command line? How to run the build? After installation I will need to run the build with recommended settings for my system. In the old EDP this was console/script-based but this is now web-based. Can I still call on the build from the command line somehow? Thanks Mike Wilson
  15. Ok, so I have keyboard access again and have transferred Install_EDP to the laptop through a USB stick. When I try to run the install from the command line in single-user mode (text console, no graphic desktop) it complains about missing Window Server, as expected. So how can I update EDP in this stage? (Is it possible to trigger a headless EDP install?)
