Hi, I just used this tutorial to install snow leopard onto my xfx 630i mobo.

 

My nforce onboard lan is not being detected and my 8600gt graphics card is not displaying the correct resolution. how can i fix these issues?

 

edit: I just realized that I put the efi string in the wrong key, so I put it back under the device-properties.

After doing that, osx would no longer load. It just shows a black screen a couple seconds into loading. ethernet lan is still not working

 

pc specs:

mobo: xfx630i

cpu: intel core 2 duo 8400

ram: 4gb

gfx: xfx8600gt 512mb

I would suggest that initially you remove the graphics string from device properties, and concentrate on getting everything else working while running in VESA mode, including networking, and then run EFIStudio v1.1 within Snow Leopard itself.....also try your monitor cable in both ports of your graphics card to see which if either gives you on-the-fly switchable resolutions....

unfortunately, it seems like nforcelan is refusing to boot. I tried a lot of the fixes on page 19 of this thread, but none of them fixed the problem.

 

as for the graphics problem, the efi string seems to load fine after using the string generated from efistudio inside SL.

But the graphics is still showing the wrong resolution and not showing my dual monitor setup.

 

btw

im running the dr hurt installation of chameleon 2 RC3 without the arch=i386 boot flag. I tried adding it and it didnt change a thing.

Have you checked your onboard LAN chipset to see if it is actually supported by eno's nForceLAN kext....?

 

With a dual monitor setup, you probably need to check out the NVCAP values etc.....

1. With the LegacyAppleRTC_32bit_Only.kext......no need for DSDT RTC fix (for CMOS reset bug) as well....?

 

2. Is this the same nForceIOATAFamily.kext as I mention in post #1 with OSBundleProperty value of the kexts set to "Root".....?

 

3. On your MOBO, the audio chipset/CODEC is the Realtek ALC883....correct or not? So, other nForce MOBOs owners may need to modify the Info.plist of VoodooHDA for their audio chipset CODEC....

1. I'm sorry because I can say nothing. The file LegacyAppleRTC_32bit_Only.kext I have of her. http://osx86.sojugarden.com/downloads/

 

Legacy AppleRTC.kext repackaged to function with Snow Leopard. This prevents the “CMOS Reset” error that is encountered on most motherboards running OSx86 10.6. IMPORTANT NOTE: This MUST be removed (and replaced by a dsdt CMOS fix) before booting to an x86_64 kernel.

 

2. I'm sorry I do not know, unfortunately I have nForceIOATAFamily.kext woe to her. But I'm sure the nForceIOATAFamily.kext from this board have.

 

3. Yes (ALC883)

 

PS. Unfortunately, my English is very bad.

No problem.....your answers confirm as follows:

 

1. The LegacyAppleRTC_32bit_Only.kext removes the need for a DSDT RTC fix (for CMOS reset bug) in 32bit mode BUT not 64bit mode.....for 64bit mode you need a DSDT RTC fix...

 

2. The nForceIOATAFamily.kext is the same as I mention in post #1 with OSBundleProperty value of the kexts set to "Root".....

 

3. The VoodooHDA kext is probably that from slice and compiled for Snow Leopard 32bit/64bit by cVad.....

Just got lan working. My 630i had marvell yukon 88e8056 chipset. I just edited some strings inside the IONetworkingFamily.kext and i could connect to the network after rebooting.

 

I'm still trying to get the graphics card to work properly. Editing the string manually didnt fix it.

 

I forgot to mention that sound(ALC888) isnt working either. :)

 

UPDATE:

 

VoodooHDA x64 fixed the audio.

Mit deiner nForceSLBoot132DVD.iso geht das booten der SnowLeopard Rtail DVD sehr sehr gut. Aber da ich immer im Abgesicherten Modus (-x) installieren muss wollte ich noch ein paar kext Dateien hinzufügen. Hast du vieleicht eine gute Anleitung wie du die ISO baust oder könest du vieleicht eine Bessere Iso erstellen das ich nicht im Abgesicherten Modus Installieren muss.

 

 

ENGLISCH

 

With your nForceSLBoot132DVD.iso is booting the DVD SnowLeopard Rtail very very good. But since I'm always in Safe Mode (-x) must install I wanted to add a few kext files. Maybe you have a good guide as you build the ISO, or you can create the iso Perhaps a better one, I do not have to install in Safe Mode.

 

 

For Tehma Installer Asus-P5N-E-SLI_Snow Pack.pkg

 

I created the installer with Iceberg. Her is my project file "Asus P5N-E-SLI_Snow Pack.packproj" when you need them. It is then also a few kext and the RTF files in the part of the Project.

What kext files do you want to add?

 

It is not obvious to me why you are having to install with the -x boot flag......

 

You should boot the Retail Snow Leopard DVD with -v -f so that all kexts on the Retail Snow Leopard DVD are loaded........for the installation stage you do not need the nForceSLBoot132DVD.iso load the audio kext and network kext and modified IOATAFamily kext.......nor even the AppleRTC kext to fix the CMOS reset issue......

I have successfully created the ISO and the ISO is automatic arch with the boot flag "-x32 arch=i386" loaded. I could normally create Snow Leropard with my install ISO. I then also packed like the Chameleon and Asus P5N-E-SLI_Snow Pack.pkg on the ISO. I will be happy if your mall postet whether man can successfully install with my ISO.

 

 

The ISO "LegacyBootCD.iso" is newly added

 

1. Chameleon (Chameleon 2 RC3.pkg, Chameleon-2.0-r431.pkg and Chameleon-2.0-RC3-r658-bin.tar.gz)

2. Asus-P5N-E-SLI_Snow Pack.pkg

3. fakesmc.kext

4. LegacyAppleRTC_32bit_Only.kext

5. nForceIOATAFamily.kext

6. nForceLAN.kext

7. VoodooHDA.kext

8. An entry in the com.apple.Boot.plist boot flag "-x32 arch=i386"

 

 

PS. Pity it on the board, the Asus P5N-E SLI, unfortunately, only in 32-bit mode is running.

Finally got graphics regcognized using nvenabler. It works without the graphics efi string.

 

What are the differences between using efi string and a kext?

What are the differences between using efi string and a kext?

 

Using a graphics string under device-properties in com.apple.Boot.plist means that you are using fewer 3rd party kexts in /Sl/E or in /E/E......hence, your OSx86 system is more "vanilla"......so typically will have fewer issues with OS X auto-updates.....

 

I quote one of its developers (Krazubu) as to what makes NVEnabler.kext different from other graphics injector kexts NVinjcet, Natit etc....and more universal :

 

This kext allows nVidia driver load by injecting the required settings, and automatically tweaks them according to your hardware by directly reading your VGA ROM.

It also does on-the-fly ROM patching to give a stabler output configuration.

 

What it does :

 

- Gets required settings from ROM, removing the need of tweaking configuration for each card

- Automatic NVCAP creation

- Automatic VRAM size detection (Kabyl)

- Corrects the ROM (without flashing) to make output definition comply with mac standards.

- Fixes TV output

- Supports for video BIOS overriding : it can load any BIOS as replacement of the integrated one, without flashing. Useful for testing or to bypass ROM size limits. It can be used on mac pro to drive a PC card.

I see.. So it pretty much edits the files by itself to prevent human error.. XD

I just realized that the IDE DVD drives weren't being recognized by the os. Do I have to modify AppleNForceATA to get it working?

 

Just tried adding the PATA hardware ID into the file and it did not change anything.

 

Don't know if its because my mobo chipset is MCP73 or not.

If your mobo chipset is MCP73 then it is AHCI compliant and you should try AHCI drivers rather than the AppleNForceATA kext.......see here.....

The genericata(ide) driver from the iAtkos v7 distro did not work... :P

Might be a kext conflict? dont know. haha.

 

Suggest you try:

 

AppleVIATA

AppleIntelPIIXATA (also Dune's version)

AppleGenericPCATA

AppleOnBoardPCATA

Zappadoc's ATI/nVidia onboard (P)ATA driver here

I'm using the Chameleon RC3 to boot SL, I can boot into the installer with nothing more than the Kexts you recommended on a HardDrive, after I've installed, I have to use RC3 to get past an immediate KP. But Leopard doesn't boot, It boots just like the installer until shortly after 

Previous Shutdown Cause: 3
ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin::start - waitForService(resourceMatching(AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement) timed out

I get HDD access but no progress.

I assume you set root ownership for the HDD volume. What are your system details.....?

I have an MSI P6N SLi (nVidia 650i) with a Q6600 and 4GiB of RAM, using a 160GB SATA HDD and A 9800GTX+ (512MiB)

The problem sorted itself after I re-wrote the boot-sectors and MBR manually.

Dual Monitors and QE/Ci work fine with just the EFI strings, I can't get the onboard LAN working though.

If it is the Platinum, then AFAIK you have a Realtek 8211BL chipset......or, if it another version P6N MOBO, then consider the Psystar R1000.kext for RTL8168, RTL8111, RTL8169, RTL8101 and some others....

I know it has an RTL8211BL, which was difficult enough to get working with Leopard, mainly because of ACPI problems. nForceLAN has my Hardware ID (0269x10DE) but it doesn't load.

I noticed somewhere that it's a 64bit kext, but envo says it's i386/x86_64.

EDIT: Got it working by putting it in the /S/L/E folder and settings the security to 755.

Now for the audio [sarcasm]yay![/sarcasm]

More EDIT: I got the Audio working just with the latest VoodooHDA (In /S/L/E Of course, /E doesn't work with all kexts for me.) I have an ALC889(A?)

It is a pity you need nForceLAN.kext in /S/L/E for it to load......but being a non-Apple.kext, auto-Software Update should not overwrite it......

 

Unless you use a symbolic link in /S/L/E pointing to nForceLAN.kext in /E/E.....

cd /Extra/Extensions/
sudo ln -s nForceLAN.kext /System/Library/Extensions/
ls -l /System/Library/Extensions/
exit
