CompSCI Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I was having a tough time getting mavericks installed on my old AMD system - so, I purchased a new system... ASUS Rampage IV Extreme Intel 4930k Sapphire Toxic R9 280x 32Gb RAM 512Gb EVO Pro SSD ... I thought I was pretty careful while choosing the components to get ones for an easy vanilla install... However - my install fails after a few seconds resulting in a blank/black screen - and, keyboard locked up... I am using: -v -f cpus=1 PCIRootUID=1 GraphicsEnabler=yes npci=0x2000 ... Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated... ... [sOLVED] Seems the vanilla kernel (from the 10.9.1 Install DMG) was not cooperating... I used the mach_kernel included in the DSDT package for my MB from the Rampage Dev site... ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lutyz Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 I met same issue before but different hardware. I made GraphicsEnabler=No and solved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
