Dahnark Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 the warranty of a computer is not related to the software you installed... and the v0.2 filespack don't get my surface hot... it could just be faulty hardware It depends of the country laws. No lose warranty in all Europe countrys for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinosaurcam Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I don't know if it is significant, but you should be sure to randomize the MAC address... (surface2osx) (4200u) How do you change or randomize the mac address? Also when changing the serial do we want one that is valid on the serial search on apple. Wouldn't that cause a conflict?

thatoneging Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Thanks @Rehabman, will take a look at this later. My school Network Department might have a hissy fit, but if it works then it sure as hell beats just transferring apps over via Dropbox or USB (if its even remotely possible).

akzidenz Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 (surface2osx) Anyone able to get their pen detected with the touch base drivers? Mine doesn't appear at all in the device selector dropdown. Wondering if there's a way to patch the Wacom drivers to recognize the vendor id / product id like how the smart guys do it for AppleHDA...

JahStories Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 @bluebug did you tried connecting an external display? just to check if it wakes the washed out screen backlight from sleep. @akzidenz i've tried every single wacom driver, and without patch they don't recognize the hw, it got a different vendorid. Final driver with pen support by touchbase are not out yet. this "bug" is inserted in the bug txt file @bluebug i've made a long discussion with rehabman that maybe could help, but its a 4 pages private conversation and i don't know how to share it with you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatoneging Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 For those who are impatient about App Store use, there are alternatives that organize and update apps. Not as nice as the apple store, but it gets you by for temporary use. Check my sig for one site, there are others though that offer freeware, demos, and commercial apps that you can buy through the app site itself.

thatoneging Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Quiet day... lol. Successfully set up a triple boot with Clover. Any recommendations for an adaptor to usb that would support SSD? And recommendation for a USB 3.0 hub? Also the Macupdate store is serving as a decent alternative to the apple app store. Have a good weekend folks!

jeffk82 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 (surfacepro) Hi all, first post, i sucessfully installed OSX maverick with your guide but im unable to boot direcly to clover after the windows 8.1 installation... i have try 2 different way with the bootfix command 1 - Format 2 partitions with disk utility 1 partition Mac OS journaled 30Gb size and 1 fat partition 90Gb size ->>> this crate a Hybrid MBR partition table and windows 8.1 dont want to install on this 2 - Format 2 partitions with disk utility 1 partition Mac OS journaled 30Gb size and 1 partition Mac OS journaled 90 Gb size ->>> this create a protective MBR partition table and Windows 8.1 install fine on the 90Gb partiton after deleting it in the setup program. The bootmanager fix dont work for me on protective partition table. What kind of pratition table guys are you using on your surface pro? hybrid or protective Thx in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JahStories Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 you should format the drive as GUID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffk82 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Already on GUID sorry forget to mension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swyner Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I got stuck on that too. The boot manager fix doesn't work at least for most of us so you have to copy and rename some stuff in you efi/Microsoft folder. It's been discussed here somewhere.

thatoneging Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 oopy and paste from a poster (I think it was MetalFish?).. 1) Boot your hard drive installed OS X with your installation pendrive (where clover is), but press space and then select "Boot Mac OS X without caches and with injected kexts" 2) If you don't have it installed, google Clover Configurator, download and install it. 3) Eject your pendrive. 3) Open Clover Configurator, go to menu Extras -> Mount EFI. You will be asked to enter your admin password. 4) You probably will receive a message "Unexpected disk identifier: disk0s2" or something, but just hit "Continue" 5) Open finder and press Command or (Windows) key + Shift + G, then enter /Volumes/EFI 6) Goto "/EFI/Microsoft/Boot" and rename "bootmgfw.efi" to "bootmgfw-orig.efi" 7) From the extra files that you downloaded, copy cloverx64.efi to the same folder "/EFI/Microsoft/Boot" and rename it to "bootmgfw.efi" 8) Now copy the whole CLOVER folder (where ACPI, direvers64UEFI, etc, are...), to the EFI folder (where Microsoft folder is...) 9) Reboot without your pendrive, and now you should have a working multiboot including windows (wich should be the first one..)

jeffk82 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 can you provide me a link please, and thx for sharing the information ! i find the information Thx again guys, not have tested yet will poste result soon Fix Clover bootloader to dual boot OS X Mavericks / Windows 8.1 from ssd/hdd After you installed windows you should notice that you can only boot windows 8. Thats normal for now. Boot from the OS X Clover usb again. (If you cant boot from usb and it goes to windows automaticly, just reset youre pc, as soon as it shows bios loading, reset it again, and then select usb as boot device) Select youre os x partition, hit spacebar, and choose with injected kext. Mount the main EFI with Clover configurator; Open the main EFI file drive on the desktop, browse to EFI/Clover and copy CLOVERX64.efi to /EFI/Mircosoft/Boot. In EFI/Microsoft/Boot rename the file bootmgrfw.efi to bootmgfw-orig.efi In EFI/Microsoft/Boot rename the file CLOVERX64.EFI to bootmgfw.efi Reboot without the Clover USB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swyner Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 You can't use the boot icon with the windows icon for some reason. You have to use the one next to it something like boot Microsoft efi... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
