2. ML install package

3.

4. GParted Live CD/USB/HD/PXE Bootable

5. Download

6. Download necessary
for Toshiba L755(patched AppleHDA, AppleSmartBatteryManager, AtherosL1cEthernet, IOUSBFamily)

7. Download AHCI
(need for case “Still waiting for root device…”)

8. Download “
” folder for L755 laptop

9. Download

10. Pached BIOS: native speedstep for ML

 

 

Preparation:

 

1. In windows:

a. Use Disk Management to creat one partition for Macos installation, recommend more than 20Gb capacity.

b. Delete (unformat) that partition

2. In windows:

a. Make an installation USB of Macos on 8Gb thumb drive: follow this

b. Make a bootable GParted Live USB: use UltraISO to open the downloaded Gparted ISO file. Bootable-->Write Disk Image…

 

3. In windows: Place all kext, tool, extra folder…into a folder in order to easily find out when we’re in Macos (E.g. I place at D:\macos\installation)

4. Patching BIOS: CodeRush

a. Download Toshiba L755
newest (ver 3.6) :

b. Patching

c. Progressing:

- After extract everything from downloaded bios, you will have this: sk1wv360\os2012321a_360\Madrid20R20RG_BIOS_WIN_V360\
x64
\
BIOS.fd

- Unzip downloaded tool, rename folder to "PMPatch" and place at C:\

- Copy the original BIOS.fd to "pmpatch" folder (Note: My windows is 64 bit version. If you install x86 then chose BIOS.fd from x86 folder)

- Open CMD, run command "cd C:\PMPatch"

- Patch bios, run command "pmpatch C:\PMPatch/BIOS.fd C:\PMPatch/patchedBIOS.fd"

- Rename patchedBIOS.fd to BIOS.fd and replace for the original once in "sk1wv360\os2012321a_360\Madrid20R20RG_BIOS_WIN_V360\
x64
\
BIOS.fd
" (pls take note x86 or x64)

- Flash your bios: run InsydeFlashx64.exe in "x64" folder (or InsydeFlash.exe in x86 folder). PLEASE ENSURE that you are on AC and your battery remain more than 50% power. Windows then auto restart. Done.

5. Boot from Gparted usb and format the “deteled/unformatted partition” that just prepared for Macos installation, format it as HFS+

6. Boot from Macos Installation USB, use Disk Ultility to make “Journaled” said partition

7. Install ML

8. Install mutibeast:

9. Install chameleon wizard, copy things to extra folder

 

Be careful that you have a correct SSDT for your CPU

10. Install kexts. Repare cache with Kext Utility.

Can you help me with Satellite L840-1029 with same LAN, wifi, and soundcard

CPU: Intel Core i3 -2370M without GPU (using internal Intel HD 3000)

 

Thanks you

 

So that you need to patch Bios, a correct SSDT for CPU and edit (or kext) for VGA.

Hi,

Thank you for your awesome guide!

The only problem I have right now is that USB ports on the right side of my laptop aren't working! How could i fix this?

By the way i have Toshiba L750 without USB3!

 

EDIT:

The problem with USB only happens if something is connected in usb ports when mac is booting...

And another thing, sleep function isn't working! When it wakes up, screen is black!

I have no idea about ur issue. But maybe u can disable USB EHCI in bios to solve that problem.
