Aigors Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Let me explain, now i have no osx installed on disk, my system is like new, i have successfully prepared usb and modified bios with ozmosis stuffs, when i try to install a brand new system, i cant because when boot happens i get Kernel Panic before i can do anything. It seems that if i dont have a disk with osx partition scheme in and connected to a system, i cant boot into installer and run diskutility Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackosx Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I understand what you're saying but I don't know why you cannot boot in to the installer. I've not had such an issue. Could it be a problem associated with your Haswell CPU? EDIT: Could you successfully boot from that same USB when another HDD with OS X already installed was connected?

blackosx Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 II could be wrong but I'm guessing it's a problem with Mavericks/Haswell. You may have to patch the kernel on your USB installer.

Aigors Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 With New ozmosis it seems that i cant use fakesmc from koetlz with stuffs for sensoring, if i put this instead of bulk fakesmc from ozmosis, boot fron usb stick hangs, and this is not the problem with new installation. In usb stick created with method mentioned in this link http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p=18081307&postcount=3 i cant see any mach_kernel inside, only iaboot files and stop, so i cant patch kernel with the patch suggested by blackosx. Another question, someone have installed windows in uefi mode with ozmosis stuffs ? could point me to some doc howto? Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackosx Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Apparently using createinstallmedia leaves the mach_kernel somewhat hidden. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295551-how-to-patch-kernel-haswell/ If you still want to install using USB then try using myhack to create it. Maybe then you will be able to patch the kernel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aigors Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Hi Blackosx thanks for your research, i still dont understand why the installer hangs if there is non disk connected, or new disk or disk not formatted in hfs, i have to try to create usb installer via myhack but aim to use "clean" apple method of installation.

xpamamadeus Posted March 14, 2014 Author Share Posted March 14, 2014 Hi Blackosx Can u help me how can i make my own osmosisdefaults ffs since its a simple plist file. I know that GUID and name must match but dont know what commands to make it. Thx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackosx Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Hi xpamamadeus TBH, I have no idea how to go about it properly. I have considered opening OzmosisDefaults in a text editor, replacing the data with my own and re-saving it, but I do not know if it’s that simple. Maybe there’s a checksum in the first 28 bytes? But I don’t think it would hurt to try. It would be nice if the file could accept other config data such as boot-args, rather than just SMBIOS data. Maybe it can? I haven't tried. Yet.

Aigors Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Hi blackosx, yes, i successfully boot only with disk connected and hfs formatted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackosx Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 hmmm. Well I don't know what's going on. The only explanation is there must be something on your existing formatted disk that the installer is using because without that disk connected the installer fails.

Aigors Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Maybe, but what? have you tryed to installa on a new disk? my hardware is mainboard GAH87M-HD3 BIOS F3 with ozmosis last version, but the beahavior it's' the same with every two ozmosis version and with or without external graphics card GTX660 , cpu Intel I3-4130 ram 4 giga, 120 gb ssd crucia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackosx Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 have you tryed to installa on a new disk No. I have two Mavericks installs, both were done from double clicking the Install Mavericks.app, downloaded from the app store, from within an already installed OS. The second phase of one install was done using Ozmosis, and the other using Clover. Both simple and the easiest install ever. When I get time I will try the createinstallmedia method to USB and let you know if it succeeds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet. didnt try with only replacing data since i am sure it have a checksum becouse all files in bios have it(again i am not sure 200%) Sure someone will help with that. Thx for your time.

Panas78 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Its just a plist and compressed like all the other modules. So we just create a plist with our smbios values save it and insert it with mmtools as compressed ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unexpected_eof Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Where can we get the latest version of ozmosis? I don't expect that you are the PJALM from TonyMacx86 boards, but anyway ... Get the bios from"HermitCrabs Lab" (link in post #1) and extract your osmosis.ffs with a tool like MMtool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverting back to 828M Fred i think you have same motherboard as mine. Are you booting ok with new ozmosis ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
