Delete your curent UEFITool and redownload another one. For some reason that i still don't know the latest version don't work for me, i prefer you to download 0.17.4 first then if working! good, if no 0.18.7!

[WinstonAce]

Or use tuxuser tool - it's easier

I created a Ozmosis bios with ethernet drivers (AppleIntelE100e.ffs) added. However, it seems it wasn't loaded since the computer cannot access internet if I didn't install one with [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]. Do I need do something else after add the drivers into bios? Thanks for your help.

Resolved with another tool

 

OZMTool.

have you add  IONEtworkingfamily too? 

I don't know if you know but for network card  working into bios it's not enough only kext but you must add IONETworkingfamily.kext into bios to, for my experience there isn't enough free room to put both kexts into many of modern bios, even you delete TCP/IP stuff like DHCP4 and DHCP6 modules

Hi Folks, someone over there can explain me the meaning of this parts of new var in default.plist? 

Changing AcpiLoader Mode
============================

  Add The Following Values Together For Default Acpi Loader Mode

  ACPI_LOADER_MODE_DISABLE        0x00000000
  ACPI_LOADER_MODE_ENABLE         0x00000001
  ACPI_LOADER_MODE_DUMP           0x00000002
  ACPI_LOADER_MODE_WINDOWS        0x00000008
  ACPI_LOADER_MODE_UPDATE_LEGACY  0x00000040

  Default Value : ACPI_LOADER_MODE_ENABLE | ACPI_LOADER_MODE_DARWIN | ACPI_LOADER_MODE_UPDATE_LEGACY = 0x45

  To Change

  sudo nvram 1F8E0C02-58A9-4E34-AE22-2B63745FA101:AcpiLoaderMode=0x45

Maybe i can't correct understand the function of ACPI_LOADER_MODE

Many thanks

Thanks. I added IONEtworkingfamily, but it still didn't work. Should I modify the plist file in the appleintele1000e.kext? Thanks.

I'm not sur, but maybe, what i understood from this part, it's like an ACPI tables loader switching mode:

Darwin if you use OS X

Windows if you use Windows to avoid ACPI_ERROR

Legacy to use Both OS X and Windows

If you haven't already patched the ACPI tables for DSDT and other SSDT's

It's like 4X4 cars, use 4X4 for RAID, and 4x2 or 2x2 for city's!

I am relaxed, It was a joke...

I never used OS X version, so for me no crush yet, but 99.9 of the time I use MMTOOL.

Maybe you should consider to at least run Windows in virtual machine, OS X simple lacks too many things to be a good platform for hacking, starting with a decent(and free) text editor like notepad++ and ending with HexWorkshop, nothing on OS X can compete with it.

Ohh did I forgot Total Commander?

There are quite enough hacker's tools in OSX, native with XCode, ported from linux, and third party like BBEdit, HexEdit, Hopper Dissassembler, HT, OXT and more.

And I agree about MMTOOL

Back to some real stuff 

 

Has anyone done encryption with filevault2 and ozmosis 1479 ?

Anyone successfully added AppleIntelE1000e.kext and IONetworkingFamily.kext. I added both according to Aigors suggeestion, but it didn't work on recovery mode. Any suggestion is appreciated. My motherboard is GA-Z77X-UP5 TH.

that's weird , mine works @ S/L/E if it is going to be added @ BIOS/UEFI you'll need to add bootargs

kext-dev-mode=1

that's mandatory for unsigned kexts , specially the appleintele1000e.kext

 

if you're going to add it @ NetworkFamily kext the right path for is

IONetworkingFamily/Plugins/AppleIntelE1000e.kext

I added both IONetworkingFamily and AppleIntelE1000e to bios and set boot-args=kext-dev-mode=1 at OzmosisDefaults. It doesn't work. If I put AppleIntelE1000e.kext at S/L/E, and it works. By the way, kext2efs didn't include the plugins directory when convert IONetworkingFamily, since the result file is only 257K, same size of the result file after deleted Plugins directory in IONetworkingFamily.kext.

If for example you want to install OS X from Recovery partition, with only AppleIntelE1000e inside the Bios will not work! So, you have to add the Patched IONetworkingFamilly into the bios to download the OS X installer from the Apple Server with your Apple ID.  

Hi Ammoune78

 

Could you shared how to patch IONetworkingFamily? My motherboard cannot get IP when I put both AppleIntelE1000e and IONetworkingFamily into the bios and boot from the recovery partition. Thanks.

So put them in the EFI/Oz directory for the .kexts that is read/loaded before you get to the booting stage, the BIOS is not necessary for them, this way also allows easy upgrades.

I added appleintele1000e without ionetworkingfamily and it's working fine.

Hi WinstonAce

 

Which version of Ozmosis do you use? I use 1479. By the way, could you share your OzmosisDefauts and MMTools report for your bios? so that I can make sure everything in my OzmosisDefault and bios is right. Thanks for your help.

 

Another point: It seems that all the kexts I added into BIOS are not loaded. I don't know why.

[WinstonAce]

I use 1479

Will upload tonight.

I finally got it work now. Thanks.

 

No IONetworkingFamily needed.

Hi, excuse me friend because i replied to late!

For my experience with Z87X-UD4H, it's when i put only AppleIntel.....ffs the recovery mode won't work, but when i put both AppleIntelE...ffs and IONetworkingFamilly.ffs all work without any addition of kext. But for you i think it's different because your Ethernet port have a Intel® 82579, so you have to add only AppleIntelE.....ffs.

Yes. my Ethernet is Intel 82579. and AppleIntelE1000e.ffs is enough. It works after I deleted the disablerKext and InjectorKext. I don't know if I need these two kexts. Thanks.

Disablerkext is used for Snow Leopard Retail installation and InjectorKext is used for SATA Ports, you can use both Disabler and Injector, you'll no problem with them!

sudo nvram 7C436110-AB2A-4BBB-A880-FE41995C9F82:boot-args="-fakesmc-use-nvram npci=0x2000"

 

Your Firmware MUST support NVRAM writing, sometimes you need to backtrack a few versions and find one that does.

 

 

 

I realize this was posted over a year ago but I am now starting to look into Osmosis since I have a Quo board I went ahead and flashed an Oz to my GA-Z77X-UP5-TH board.  All went well but I like to watch the verbose boot that is just the way I am.   I did not make one from scratch but grabbed one from the usual place for my board.

 

If I set nvram boot-args I get a reboot several times then it boots normal.  I have no idea how to set it using GUID?   Maybe I need to use the GUID when I set nvram or no?

 

Also what is the argument -fakesmc-use-nvram for?

 

I normally set nvram like this example and if I need GUID where do I find it or what terminal command do I need to find the ID?

 

sudo nvram boot-args="-v"

 

 

Thanks

 

Edited:

 

I am not getting the boot menu for "refind"  I placed the boot folder into the ESP.   Oz has Efi then a folder Oz.  I placed the Boot folder in the top level of the mounted EFI, same level as the Oz Efi folder.  I even placed inside Efi folder and still no boot menu?

 

Thanks

Has anyone Ozmosis running Yosemite on Gigabyte Z77-DS3H ?

 

I tried it but I faced Ethernet problem (solved by adding kext in S/L/E/IONetwokingfamliy) and more importantly I could not resume from sleep and I did not find a solution ...

 

Any feedback is welcome 

 

Thanks

All works fine, can you give us your exact config.
