LS8 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Thank you. I have "Security Chip = disabled" in BIOS. I solved the problem temporarily adding a dummy network interface to /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist, as written at http://forum.netkas.org/index.php/topic,83.0.html. No more Error 35, TimeMachine works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more Error 35, TimeMachine works. You should try the PlatformUUID.kext fix. Remember to manually put your root disk UUID in the Info.plist. My Hack now sleeps automatically, which has never worked before I'll be adding PlatformUUID.kext to the installer, but I probably won't have the time until next weekend.

It works, thanks My Hack now sleeps automatically, which has never worked before I have to test it yet on EP45-DQ6. I'll be adding PlatformUUID.kext to the installer, but I probably won't have the time until next weekend. Great, thank you! FakeSMC 2.0 is out, will you update it in your installer too?

FatMcNasty Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I've added an experimental installer for ALC888. I can't test it, but please try it and report back Guide updated. Yup it worked great! GA-EP35-DS3L every thing working! Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beklyn Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Can you just update to 10.6.1 after the install ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tseug Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 Can you just update to 10.6.1 after the install ? Please read the thread. This has already been answered at least twice. By the way, the answer is yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herbalb Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Great, thank you! FakeSMC 2.0 is out, will you update it in your installer too? Would be great. This weekend I will try to install Snow Leopard on my P35-DS4 (rev. 1.0) using your guide/installer - does it make sense to update BIOS to the same you used (F14)? At the Moment my Mainboard uses F11 and 10.5.7 works without any issues but as I am thinking of using DSDT I could imagine that it it would be better to use the same BIOS as you did, but I am not sure.

Bernard Tapie Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 hello I'm sorry to be the black sheep of the family here, but I never even had the time to grab a cup of coffee : with my GA-EP35-DS4 i'm stuck at this lines at about 130 sec after using the Boot Cd, entering -v and hitting the enter key : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tseug Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 Added fakesmc v2 and PlatformUUID.kext. Guide updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic999 Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Update from 10.5.8 to 10.6 worked with your cd on X38-DS5 here, too. Sound does not work using the ALC888 installer. Still investigating this. Maybe dependent on the Bios Version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasonwoodvine Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Hi all EP45-DS3R BIOS 11d beta worked great. Installed and updated to 10.6.1. The only problem is that before first boot into snow leopard (after install) my keyboard had to be re-plugged in several times before it was recognised.

rizzopro Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Very F****** Cool guide and very easy to implement. I used an earlier version but got no sound (p45-ds3). Was wracking my brain playing with dsdt and kexts to no avail. Scewed up the partition in the making and decided to start over and re read your guide, looks like you included a package specifically for the realtek alc888 which was what was missing. Started over and included new alc888 package and BAM! Audio working as well as everything else. Thanks and Kudo's to you and everyone else who helped in the making of this! Listening to audio at the moment through optical port into Scremin' Denon amp. 10.6.0....thanks again!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I could find on Gigabytes site was ga-ep45-ds3 which uses ALC889A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierOSX Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 edit: KP resolved. Operator error, not Tsueg's installer. --------------------------- I keep getting a KP about 30 seconds after I choose Snow Leopard (only partition) at the Chameleon boot screen. I don't think it's BIOS...suggestions? Works on GA-EP45-DQ6 perfectly.Also Apple Update via the updater. Thanks tseug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atomic999 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 ...Or maybe it's because X38-DS5 had ALC889A and not ALC888. Right. By using the DSDT for 889a, Audio works. Pinning is incorrect, but that doesn't matter. Audio-in also works on X38-DS5. A tool to configure the right Audio settings (Pin Layout etc.) at one day is on my wishlist for christmas Has anyone succeeded in getting 5.1 / 7.1 running?

boehj Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 this looks very promising one question tho': is the GA-EP35-DS3P the same mobo as the GA-P35-DS3P? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierOSX Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Got it working but it gives a failed install error when installing to the EFI partition. For giggles installed to the SL partition and it installed successfully. Also, my Ethernet is only obtaining self assigned IP thus preventing me from getting online. Setting it DHCP with manual IP does not fix it. I do not see a Realtek kext for the Ethernet in /Extra. Suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LS8 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 There is no Realtek driver in /Extra. Network should work natively on P35-DS4, the installer only uses patched ifconfig in /usr/local/bin to turn on promisc mode, which enables bonjour. You can try the latest Realtek driver from here: http://www.realtek.com.tw/Downloads/downlo...GetDown=false#7 - I had to install it on my EP45-DQ6, I had no network without it.

HoosierOSX Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Where did you put the downloaded realtek driver? I assume S/L/E though if there is an easy way to add it to /E/E so it stays with all other needed kexts to keep /S/L/E clean that would be ideal. I am on EP45-DQ6.

LS8 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 ...My Hack now sleeps automatically, which has never worked before ... Unfortunatelly neither my P35-DS4 nor the EP45-DQ6 sleep automatically after a period of inactivity. Where did you put the downloaded realtek driver? Just run the Realtek .pkg installer. You cannot put this driver to /E, it has to be installed to /S/L/E. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
