brockwitting Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Add me to the DSMOS has arrived camp. Gigabyte EP-45T-USB3P GTX 570 The only way I can even get there is if I swap the IOPCIFamily and Apple kexts with the ones from snow leo. I tried rominators suggestion on netkas's site of unplugging the monitor before boot, and still no dice. It never even tries to load the desktop. I am sure once the final retail release is out, someone will fix this, but in the mean time, does anyone have any ideas? EDIT: I AM using ATY_Init, but it is not working obviously.

tsm1248 Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Ok my fix for this is simple. You will get to the pvi-config begin with this also except this fix will make it go a little faster JK a lot faster. You should hear "strange noises" from your comp just leave it and it will boot. Use these files Readme--- Make sure hidden files are enabled there is a boot file for chameleon use it. Over-right the existing one. Then boot with -v arch=i386 files.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaithis Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 You have defined your gfx card....that will only work for others with the same card, in the same slot.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brockwitting Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Is there a fix for this at all aside from adding the EFI string to the boot.plist? (Anyone have a string for a GTX 570?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HackerWayne819 Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Add me in the list, Mac OS X Lion DP 4 Specs: Intel Core i5 760 12GB RAM. (Tried to boot with Maxmem=4096 no luck) Nvidia GT450 (this is the F**king problem) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HackerWayne819 Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Hi all, recently i upgraded my Hackintosh from OS X Lion DP 1 to DP 4. After creating USB drive etc, i start the installation, and it stalls @ [PCI Configuration Begin]. (no prob with DP 1). I'm using a Nvidia GT450, after swapping a Nvidia 9500GT it boots and install normally. Installed appropriate kexts and EFI string for GT450 hoping it to boot. After swap back to GT450 and reboot, it still hangs at [PCI configuration Begin] . Ive tried all kinds of boot flags, nothing seems to work My specs: Intel Core i5 760 Asus P7H55M-PRO Nvidia GT450 (Nvidia 9500GT temporary ) 12GB RAM (tried maxmem=4096 no luck ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pangul Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Hi all, just reverted to original DP4 AppleACPI... IOPCI.. IO80211... kexts on my Dell Latitude E6400 Nvidia. The pci Configuration ist tricked out very simple: Just make shure, that in dsdt Device (PCI0) has the line "Name (_UID, Zero)" not "Name (_ADR, Zero)" like described here: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...t&p=1387099 worked like a charm for me! Thanks to Gringo Vermelho's post at the 10.6.8 thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Best fix for the "PCI Configuration Begin" freeze so far: http://netkas.org/?p=852 Thanks Oleg! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginosih Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 i've found a solution for my gtx460: install lion dp4 then, after pci conf begin , reboot my leopard partition on usb drive, change IOACPI & IOPCI with dp2 or dp1 IOACPI & IOPCI(don't remember properly) and delete AppleIntelCpuPowermanagement (KP for me) then put in same folder ATY_init kext. After this, download last kext utility.. 2.5... for lion... then put this in System/Library folder and drag Extensions folder on it for permissions repair... That's All... restart and works fine... also dsmos has arrived... I've now, problem with internal alc662 audio, i don't know kext for this... and for restart (CSMOS RESET after this) my specs are Zotac GF9300 mini itx wifi with q6600 .. gtx460 1gb gddr5... Any suggestions? tnxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VCH888 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 try this solution by bcc9 It worked for my GT220/GT240. I don't have Fermi to test. Ok, I was able to fix the console logging problem after "PCI Configuration Begin" is displayed simply by adding:npci=0x2000 to the kernel boot flags. Ie in com.apple.Boot.plist: <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>-v arch=i386 npci=0x2000</string> no kext or DSDT hacking required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musicman10 Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 try this solution by bcc9It worked for my GT220/GT240. I don't have Fermi to test. Thanks that actually worked for me. I'm using a GTX 470 and a P6T Deluxe V2 and Lion GM installs and is usable without any other modifications, just using GraphicsEnabler=y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mboy Posted July 3, 2011 Author Share Posted July 3, 2011 I used Oleg's patch for IOPCIFamily.kext and added the kernel boot flag npci=0×2000 to com.apple.boot.plist. I get past PCI Configuration begin but now I am stalled at "USBMSC Identifier (non-unique): " in the boot sequence. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macwars Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Just copy your DSDT to /extra on your Stick and use <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string> in com.apple.Boot.plist Works perfect with my gt240, 8400 and 9800 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liliass Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I reinstall LION from the usb drive (twice) and now i am able to boot into lion. I have no idea why. but at least now everything is working fine.. yahoo!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mboy Posted July 3, 2011 Author Share Posted July 3, 2011 I added the dsdt.aml to the /extra folder and added graphics enabler to the com.apple.boot.plist but I am still stuck at " USBMSC Identifier (non-unique): ".

tkman Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 i thought I would add this. w/ GM i had to disconnect extraneous usb devices and the usb hub that i had. if i didn't i would be stuck at [ pci configuration begin ]. this did not seem to happen w/ dp3/dp4, or at least that i recalled. after installation i plugged everything back in and it worked fine.

I'm going to try this tip, thank you. I've been getting stuck @ 'PCB' for some time now and only modded or older KEXTS worked to fix it. I'd much rather keep it Vanilla if I can.

kup Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 An update, removing my USB Hub and using NPCI=0x2000 worked a treat, thank you for that tip. I'm now rocking my i7 970, Gigabyte UD9 and Gigabyte 560 Ti. I used GE for the 560 (Full Resolutions, Open GL, no OpenCL) along with adding the DEV ID to NV100..blahblah Kext in S/L/E/ .

mboy Posted July 4, 2011 Author Share Posted July 4, 2011 Disconnected all other USB drives and hub; now hangs at "DSMOS has arrived" if I use arch=i386 at boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kup Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Take out the Arch flag, I found it caused problems too. Lion is 64bit anyway, Finder isn't capable of 32bit operation from what I've read so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johncool Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Finder is capable of running on a 32bit kernel (I have my installation of Lion GM running with i386 flag, because of my Audigy kext), but won't run on 32bit-only CPU's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
