BillaBongo Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Well I have been a happy mac & Hack owner but since SL works so well on my EP45-UD3R system and I have not had kernel panics or a single crash since completion of installation and DSDT, I decided to sell off all my "real" macs! Yesterday I sold: PowerMac G5 Dual 2Ghz PowerMac G5 Dual 1.8Ghz PowerMac G4 MDD Dual 1.25Ghz And my recent MacPro 2008! So needless to say I love my hack! I am a proud Apple supporter and always pay for my products including SL. After enduring years of paying the ludicrous prices and poor warranty work / support (which usually means I eat many $$$$) for obviously flawed systems, I said enough. I love my Hackintosh Mac Pro Quad and love the support for our EP45-UDxx boards! So my hat is off to Doom42, Elaide, and many others whose hard work helped out to make the best possible experience for SL on our boards So I managed to get a ton of cash for other things, I am now off to start researching for a i5/i7 build! Thanks to everyone, -BillaBongo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pplug Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Good for you! I did the same! After years of buying mac hardware I said enough! I just gave my in-laws my mini and built myself a hackintosh for $600. One that would cost me over 2 thousand in apple hardware. I have a ud3r with a q9950 running at 3825 Mhz and a GTX260! Suck on that Apple!

Don't use injectors or enablers. These days they're becoming obsolete. You should have no problems with your video card providing you add the right EFI string to your apple.com.Boot.plist or edit your DSDT. I don't have time to find it. Google around it's out there.

JFLNYC Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Thank you for this guide! Worked great on my GA-EP45T-DS5 (DDR3 version). However, there is one problem. Geekbench keeps crashing on startup. Im running 10.6.1 in 32 bit mode, and running 32 bit Geekbench 2.0.3. I have attached the log. Does anybody have the solution? All help appreciated. You need to disable Quartz Debug using Xcode Tools. It's in Developer/Applications/Graphics Tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdawg Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 kdawg, great contribution!!! -- just running through your DSDT now Be sure you take out the extra devices you don't need such as the extra LAN device (GA-EP45-UD3P only) and the GFX devices (8800GT 512MB & 8500GT 256MB) if they don't match mine.

pacrat007 Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I checked out your install and have no clue about DSDT files, so I ran over to the lifehacker install for the UD3P (I have UD3R with Quad 8400 and EVGA 9500 GT) and decided to give it a try. I used a 8GB USB thumb drive to install Retail SL. The only thing I did was download and install lifehacker's file onto the thumb drive (besides SL). I have an iMac running SL already, so I was able to format the thumb drive on it. SL installed like a charm. No hick-ups whatsoever. I checked out your bios settings, as well as the one on lifehacker's blog. The only thing I did after install was copy his file to the internal HDD so that I could boot directly from it rather than the thumb drive. That was it. I got the welcome graphics and sounds. I then connected ethernet and ran software update. It downloaded three files including 10.6.1. The update installed without a hitch. I attached an external usb hdd today and backed up with time machine. Everything is working: System profiler recognizes: cpu, all usb ports, all sound ports, my hdd sata drive, plextor dvd sata drive, 2 x 2gb ddr2, ethernet and firewire ports, my video card appears correctly as well. Bonjour appears to be working. I am astonished and grateful to you, lifehacker and the whole community. This was a breeze for me but I know there was a lot of sweat behind it from the community. I think the only difference between a UD3P and UD3R is that the P version has an extra pci-e slot, so the files should work interchangeably or I'm just really lucky : - ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, you're going to have to edit DSDT code LOL, might as well make it in a way that's easier to debug (because you know what you're changing). Congrats on a success, nevertheless!

William Parker Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Hi, Thanks d00m42 for your neat guide. Came across this when trying to solve the ALC889A riddle - http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/260841-3...artup-ep45-ud3r Seems this is quite common with Gigabyte boards with 889A. No matter what I do Snow boots 10-12 seconds slower whenever I enable audio from the BIOS & use DSDT fix with LegacyHDA kext or voodooHDA. I also tried the kextless solution with layout id 66. That is even worse & of course litters the log with sound assertion errors. Right now I have 2 sound assertion errors, but what bugs me is after DSMOS arrives it waits for nearly 10-12 seconds before proceeding with the rest of the boot process. Using Netkas PCEFI 10.4.1. Does any kind soul here have a solution to this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zetoune Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Hi there, Thank you d00m42. I followed your guide with your DSDT.aml and everything worked except video card which is an Asus EN9800 GT 512 MB. I could make it work with NVEnabler. I could stop there because everything worked, but I wanted to do more. After several searches on the web, I saw 9800GT users were able to make the card work with a patched DSDT. I found a tutorial with another motherboard which is quite similar: EP45-DS3L EP45-DS3L . I have to thank blackosx as well. So now, I have my videocard working without NVEnabler and I'm happy. I have read in blackosx tutorial PDF that's possible to patch DSDT to get SATA controller recognized natively without IOAHCIBlockStorageInjector.kext. I don't have any problem with the SATA controlleur except that the DVD drive hangs sometimes when I try to open it. Can I use this patch for the EP45-UD3R motherboard? Is it better to have Intel ESB2 controller than Intel ICH10? A little modification could be done in the "bonjour" script (ifconfig.command) in "Extra/Bonjour" . replace /Extra/bonjour/ifconfig en0 promisc by /Extra/Bonjour/ifconfig/ifconfig en0 promisc config: EP45-UD3R rev 1.1 F6 Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Kingston HyperX 1066 DDR2 4GB Western Digital 500 GB 32 MB cache Western Digital 1TB 32 MB Asus EN9800 GT 512MB Pioneer DVR-218B-BK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does any kind soul here have a solution to this? Please refrain from send me PMs just saying, "Read your own thread". I would have seen your problem here anyway, as I check the thread occasionally. PMs won't make it faster.. I'm just really busy with work and college applications sometimes. I have around 10 sound assertion errors, but my boot process is extremely fast and the sound is 100% flawless so I just ignore them, as they don't seem to be causing any issues. I just used a layout ID/HDEF fix in my DSDT for the 889A, and it works. I can't really say much more than that. I'm not sure why your DSMOS takes 10-12 seconds to arrive... post a verbose boot log here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Parker Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 @d00m42 Oops! Sorry for the PM. The problem is not with time taken with dsmos to arrive. It is what happens after that. After DSMOS has arrived there is a delay of 10-12 seconds whenever audio is enabled from BIOS & LegacyHDA is there along with DSDT injection.

d00m42 Posted October 21, 2009 Author Share Posted October 21, 2009 Still have no idee how to fix it, can somebody please help me ? Thx The kext would be located in /System/Library/Extensions (if you installed it to your system hard drive). To remove it, delete the kext file in /S/L/E and then use Kext Utility to create a new .mkext (go to /System/Library and delete extensions.mkext, and drag the Extensions folder onto Kext Utility to create a new one).

I have read in blackosx tutorial PDF that's possible to patch DSDT to get SATA controller recognized natively without IOAHCIBlockStorageInjector.kext. I don't have any problem with the SATA controlleur except that the DVD drive hangs sometimes when I try to open it. Can I use this patch for the EP45-UD3R motherboard? Is it better to have Intel ESB2 controller than Intel ICH10? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
