Yep... changes on the active partition, will only be effective after reboot because the HD is in use (mounted).

Just go on with the rest of the stuff and reboot when ready.

 

Glad to help -_- i have to leave for now so, if you have any doubt post.. i'll try to answer later if no one does...

I think that I succeeded in installing ANVAL while combining it with ihavearedcouch/Alan Tassarts instructions for installing SL on my EVGA X58 SLI (758) mobo. The only thing (well at least for now) missing before I can move my SL HD into my hackbox is to run

 

"cp mach_kernel /Volumes/EFI/"

 

The kexts, aml-file and plists are taken from JaE-V's Hackintosh Files, but (bare with me!) which mach_kernel am I to copy and/or where do I get it from?

Hm - Found a reference in this post mentioning grabbing mach_kernel from tonymacx86's [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url].iso:

 

 

Hopefully this will do/be ok ?!

Onosan,

i'm not sure if you need any "special" kernel; looking at the specs on your signature, i would say "no" but since support for i7 is recent, i guess that will depend on the version of OS X you are installing?! not sure if 10.6.3 (most recent Snow installer) already supports i7?? Anyway, you can always use the legacy_kernel... check Nawcom's site for older versions.

One thing at least i'm sure; the kernel is not meant to be on the EFI partition! Use it at the root of the system, just like the original.

Also, why are you using the EFI partition to install the booter? imho, it's a waste of time!! :unsure: but that's just my opinion...

Hi Azimuth

 

Once again thanks for your time and patience :rolleyes:

 

My Apple OSX Snow Leopard Install DVD is the original zeroday release I bought back when it entered the market.

 

In this thread I asked for the EFI string for my ATI HD 4870 card and was recommended device injecting with AnVAL instead and so here I am.

 

I dont know why AnVAL have chosen to use the EFI partition to install the booter, but I have tried to strictly follow the "Manual Installation Procedure" for AnVAL mentioned on post #1:

 

"This has to be done manually (from command-line):

The X is the drive identifier on which snow has been installed

and/or the one you 'd want to use for booting (e.g.: USB).

You can find that identifier with the diskutil list command.

 

sudo -s

newfs_hfs -v EFI /dev/diskXs1

fdisk -f boot0hfs -u -y /dev/rdiskX

dd if=boot1h of=/dev/rdiskXs1

mkdir /Volumes/EFI

mount_hfs /dev/diskXs1 /Volumes/EFI

cp boot /Volumes/EFI

 

If you have windows on another partition, do not follow those steps in blue

 

fdisk -e /dev/rdiskX

p

f 1

w

y

q

mkdir /Volumes/EFI/Extra

mkdir /Volumes/EFI/Extra/10.6/Extensions

mkdir /Volumes/EFI/.fseventsd

touch /Volumes/EFI/.fseventsd/no_log

 

Then, u 'd want to copy your extra kexts and/or kernel etc...

 

cp mach_kernel /Volumes/EFI/

cp Extensions.mkext /Volumes/EFI/Extra/10.6/Extensions/

cp *.aml /Volumes/EFI/Extra/

cp com.apple.boot.plist /Volumes/EFI/Extra/

cp smbios.plist /Volumes/EFI/Extra/

cp Themes /Volumes/EFI/Extra/

 

Finally you 'd need to unmount the EFI partition

 

umount -f /Volumes/EFI

rm -rf /Volumes/EFI

fsck_hfs /dev/diskXs1

 

> One thing at least i'm sure; the kernel is not meant to be on the EFI partition!

 

err - but I thought that was what the command from the install did?!:

 

"cp mach_kernel /Volumes/EFI/"

 

Anyway I have now tried to mount my SSD and booting but it barfs instantly without trying to load and keeps booting again and again. So your advice is to remove the mach_kernel from the200 Mb EFI partition and copy it to the root of my new boot ssd partition ?

Hi valv :(

I've a problem with a Intel x3100 with 0x2a12 ID (HP 6720s)

I tried your bootloader but graphicsEnabler doesn't work for me. A Framebuffer problem!

Is there a solution ?

As many of u was waiting for this...

Hi,

I have just installed this Anval (bootloader) ? manually but now I dont understand some things...

 

before this i was used with Chameleon to put my dsdt, smbios etc to Extra folder and all modded kexts to Extra/Extensions folder...

 

Now that I have this anval bootloader, where do I have to put my new dsdt or the extra kexts?

in the EFI volume hidden partition? :wacko:

or I can just do the same I did till now, with chameleon?

You can follow the same procedure. Nothing is different in that regard.

Hi,

 

I wonder if you could add the hardware id 0x100268C1, "Radeon Mobility HD 5650" which is a common card.

 

It also seems to work best I am told with the Eulemur framebuffer, however I haven't been able to get any bootloader to force that to happen. I am using the Lion kexts with a bootloader that is meant to use AtiConfig string but it doesn't seem to make any difference.

 

However I'm not sure yours would even find my device as it is not listed - so rules out your loader which looks quite good.

really? ;)

But then... why did I have to run the following code...

Then, u 'd want to copy your extra kexts and/or kernel etc...
  • cp Extensions.mkext /Volumes/EFI/Extra/10.6/Extensions/
  • cp *.aml /Volumes/EFI/Extra/
  • cp com.apple.boot.plist /Volumes/EFI/Extra/
  • cp smbios.plist /Volumes/EFI/Extra/
  • cp Themes /Volumes/EFI/Extra/

When the EFI hidden partition was still "visible" and mounted (while i was doing the above procedure in terminal) I transferred also there (by dragging & drop like normal files/folders) my dsdt.aml, boot.plist, extensions.kext and even the entire "Extra/Extensions" folder, containing all the kext.... everything from my MAC partition to that Volumes/EFI folder...

that means they are now "hidden" in that strange EFI partition.... not anymore in my Macintosh visible partition....

I hope you understand my doubts now... thats why I asked... Why did I have to do that above part, if I could leave everything (dsdt.aml, extensions folder etc..) where they were at the beginning?

 

PS ---> * sorry for not having much... knowledge! *

You don't have to use EFI partition. You can still use Extra folder in your MAC visible partition. What you shouldn't do is to mix and use them simultaneously, which means that if you don't want to use EFI partition you need to delete that partition and install Chameleon to the partition on which Snow Leopard is installed. If you place your files in your normal Extra folder, it will be fine. If your installation is successful with EFI partition may be you should stick using it. I don't know, again, it is up to you. All your doubts is not specific to AnVaL and that why I said there is nothing different in that regard.

 

I have never used EFI partition because my HDD was formatted with MBR in the first place and I haven't had any chance to change it.

AnVal

 

Your bootloader was the only bootloader that recognized my Nvidia 420g optimus correctly and enabled the QE/QI on my lappy.

The only issue is that it inject incorect vram size in system progiler, instead 1024mb shows up only 512mb.

Can be that corrected.

thanks

I have Ati RAdeon HD 5550 with device id 0x68da , ATY ,Megalodon , is QE/CI enable for this vga ?

 

5550 is not Megaloden! follow ATI threads for this. Most RC5 branches inject Megaloden which they really shouldn't inject anything at all if unsupported.

Sorry for late response. I got lost on the limbo :rolleyes:

 

Trying this time with some slightly different configuration:

 

* CPU: AMD Phenom II X6 1090T

* Mobo: Gigabyte GA-GPA890-UD3H Rev 2.1

* RAM: 4GB Adata XPG

* Graphics: Radeon HD 3650 PowerColor 512MB

* Snow Leopard 10.6.7

* Kernel: Legacy Kernel 10.6.7

* Boot flags: busratio=16 arch=i386 -force64

* SMBios: IMac 11.1

* Bootloader: Last version of AnVaL ACPI

 

what happens if u load it manually?

maybe exotic qe/ci package (from netkas) and/or some dsdt patching could get u qe/ci working again.

 

I will try both and post the results here.

Ok, i tried loading manually that Kext. It does nothing. Another thing i noted is that GraphicResolution > 1280x1024 just got stucked on 1152x864 on OS X.

 

One more thing. When i load on GraphicResolution = 1440x900, sometimes it gives 3 "SLOT-1 entry " on logs.

 

I will try tomorrow with Exotic from Netkas. (Right now i have some 10.6.7 MBP Early 2011 ATI Kexts).

To make you video card work you need to do this

 

boot in to windows use gpuz extract you bios name it 1002_68c1.bin place this file in your Extra folder i have attached pre modded kexts for you if you want to use them they are from lion

 

add Use ATiROM = yes in com.apple.Boot.plist then you will need the ati5000controler and 3000controler kext .... however i usualy use kext helper and just install all kexts in the zip make sure all other graphics related flags are not enabled (resoultion---graphics enabler ect...) reboot and your graphics should be using 3d acelleration

BTW this will work on any hd series 3k-6k card just need to always edit 3k controler and what ever kext you card needs 4000 5000 6000 ect add you vendor id (0x100268C1 ... ect ) and put you bois in the right folder and boom your upbelow is a example of the kext info.plst

Well. I've tried with Netkas Exotic Cards with no success on Full Resolution or QE/CI. I tried today another strategy for Full Resolution. Here the steps:

 

1.- Download ATY_Init.kext for Snow Leopard. Put in S/L/E.

2.- Get your Leopard ATINDRV and ATIRNDRV kexts and copy to S/L/E.

3.- Disable GraphicsEnabler from /Extras/com.apple.boot.plist

4.- Move or remove ATISupport and ATIFramebuffer kexts from S/L/E.

5.- Repair permissions and regenerate caches.

6.- Restart.

 

Now i have Full Resolution Changing, but no QE/CI.

I upgraded my cpu to a phenom II x945 with 4x 3.0Ghz and dince this update i was not able to boot with anval.

It stops by initialing the drives.

All other bootloader are working.

 

Does anybody else have this problem?

Hi all. I installed 10.6.7 on a Sandy Bridge system (GA-H67N-USB3-B3 + Core i3-2100) using a auto-patched DSDT. It's all Vanilla and the only two Macbook Pro 2011 specific files are the 10.7.3 kernel and and the AppleIntelCPUPowermanagement.kext. All the rest is 10.6.3 retail + regular 10.6.7 combo update.

 

In the BIOS all CPU powermgt settings are set to enabled, with 30x busratio (lower multi's does not make a difference and default multi 31x gives reboot loop). I did specify a busratio and maxcpuspeed in smbios.plist but this does not seem effective.

 

The system works great though, including auto-sleep and everything seems to be loading up nicely, with Cstat and Pstat info visible in IOReg (see attachment).

 

However, Pstates is not working, with "CPU: Attempting to enable IDA: Failed!" showing in bdmesg (attached).

 

Another important error from the kernel log (attached) is: "kxld[com.apple.kpi.unsupported]: This symbol set has the following unresolved symbols: _lapic start"

 

I am also puzzled why "Mac Pro" is mentioned in various places despite the Macbook Pro 8,1 sysdef in smbios.plist

 

Despite spending numerous hours on many powermgt related threads I am without clues as to where to start to get to the root cause of this.

 

From looking at the attached files, hopefully someone feels challenged to come up with a good hint how to enable p states? this would make the system 100% perfect!! :P

 

PS I am using ^Andy^ boot file which merges Anval 5.1.4 (shown on boot) with recent code from Kabyl and MBP2011 ATI kexts.

 

[EDIT:] In the meantime I tried a number of things, which all did not make any difference at all, so I am beginning to wonder if Anval 5.1.4 actually supports my CPU (Core i3-2100) properly. I tried: 1) use regular 5.1.4 (instead of Andy's merged one with Kabyl), 2) change sysdef into Mac Pro 3,1 or iMac 11,1, 3) use various busratios in BIOS between 20 and 30, 4) use 10.7.3 kernel in combination with 10.6.7 for MBP2011 versions of AppleIntelCPUPowermanagement.kext and AppleIntelCPUPowermanagementClient.kext, 5) confirm proper speedstepping of the system in Windows 7.

Hi...

 

sorry this basic question, but, how and where should I use this "Andy" boot file and Anval 5.1.4,

 

'cause I'm trying to instal Lion on a P67 with sandy bridge..

 

thank you..

why are you using a enabler ATY_Init.kext is not needed you need to edit your ATIRadeonX3000.kext only for your card add 0x10029598 to the section <string> </string> save the info.plist and close it, open your com.apple.Boot.plist it should look simular to the one below the part that is important is in bold below. last thing GET A BIOS DUMP FOR YOU CARD! put it in extras and replace all the junk you deleted or replaced in s/l/e reboot and you will have full working graphics oh and repair permissions before rebooting .. I havent understood the need to hack stuff that dont need to be hacked OSX 10.6.7 has exlent ATI support

 

your bios file needs to be named 1002_9598.bin for the loader to see it

It seems this boot loader does not support all sandy bridge processors. I have a laptop, from Asus G53SW series with i7-2630QM, 6Gig DDR3 memory. I have installed OSX and updated with the latest combo from apple. The only way I can run it is to use [url=&quot;http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/&quot;]#####[/url] legacy cd.

When I try to run without boot CD, I get recurrent reset.

I have tried to use busratio, cpus, memmax boot loader in all the combination possible with no avail.

 

 

So I am beginning to question if this boot loader has support for new intel processors like the one in my laptop.

 

 

Any suggestions and help is really appreciated. Is one of you developers could send me a moded version with support for the above processor? I would be willing to test it and report back?

 

Thanks for help,

Artimess

PS: I use a corrected dsdt thanks to MadLOn
