Riley Freeman Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 truesoldier are you using 894M? I'm just wondering if this is why you're copying FakeSMC to the EFI folder. I usually don't need to do that here as I'm still using 828M. Everything loads from the BIOS with Mavericks. From the sound of things we're back to installing kexts in /S/L/E again so one of the big benefits of using Ozmosis is gone out the window. I'm editing one of my old Chameleon USB builder scripts now to make a Yosemite one that will install FakeSMC into /S/L/E on the USB and onto the installed system as well. Will see how that goes.

CrazyCreator Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I don't understand why the install from USB is Running but the First boot from HDD not??? The boot stop there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Freeman Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Did you boot into single user mode and kextload FakeSMC again? I think you have to do that for the first install boot as well to get it into the kernelcache. I also had kext-dev-mode=1 enabled as well. Maybe overkill but I wanted to make sure it loaded. I managed to get it installed by doing this and copying FakeSMC and my ethernet and USB 3 kexts into /S/L/E. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCreator Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I have copying all to the USB + FakeSMC in S/L/E ... Install. Now have make this: But now i Must sleeping ... Next Day, next Test. I come back. I hope i unterstand right. I make the Stick -> boot from this and then, before install, i Must make the kextload? Then Install and then make the kextload again ... Before boot the First Time from HDD? Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Freeman Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 You can forget a lot of that. Add kext-dev-mode=1 to your boot args along with -s. I'm not sure adding it from single user mode will work. Also the kextcache command is obsolete. It doesn't use Extensions.mkext. Just boot into single user mode and kextload FakeSMC both for the install and for the first boot when it's finished installing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCreator Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Can i Check the boot-args? I have Write this in nvram, but i dont know is adding correct or Not? Can you write me exactly the kextload text? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Freeman Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Type "nvram -px" to see what's there (boot-args will be at the bottom). When you type a new "nvram boot-args" command it will replace what is already there. So "sudo nvram boot-args="-s kext-dev-mode=1" is what I typed (from Mavericks). You could also type it from single user mode in Yosemite (you won't need the sudo at the start then). If you do I'd suggest rebooting after doing this so it will read them during startup. Once you're in single user mode type "kextload /System/Library/Extensions/FakeSMC.kext". If you get an error about permissions then type "chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/FakeSMC.kext" and "chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/FakeSMC.kext" and then try the kextload command again. You should see it load and say something like 13 keys loaded. Then type "exit" and it will resume booting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSCXP2005 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Hello, I have a Samsung NP540U3C ultrabook and I would love to use this BIOS as a way of installing Mavericks so I can update it and not have to mess around with Kexts. How do I find out if it will be possible, Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for support But starting always im SingleUserModus, without pressing any on keyboard. What can i do? Great! To stop it loading in single user mode just run the sudo nvram command again but remove the "-s". That's the flag to load in single user mode. "kext-dev-mode=1" is all you should need in the boot-args. @NSCXP2005: The first thing to check is that your NVRAM is writable. Without this, there's little point in picking Ozmosis over Clover. To do this you'll need to be booting with UEFI Clover. If you can write a boot-arg like "-v" to nvram and it sticks after a reboot without using EmuVariableUefi then you have working nvram. (This is the how I would check nvram but maybe somebody can suggest a better/easier way). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xelanaiznac Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 10.10 dp1 installed with vanilla usb :-) ozmosis 894m the funny thing is that with 10.10 i can choose botcamp in startup volume (mac osx preferences) while with 10.9.3 i can't. ps i have installed 10.10 on the same disk of 10.9.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Freeman Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 10.10 dp1 installed with vanilla usb :-) ozmosis 894m I wonder why it didn't work for me. I had to add FakeSMC to the install USB (and to the installed system to be sure). Are you using the stock Ozmosis SMCEmulatorKext? Or Slice's one (that one is signed).
