Eweie Posted February 12, 2014 Author Share Posted February 12, 2014 ok so im in the mavericks desktop but im stuck at resolution 1024 x 768 mirrowed in all my monitors and i dont have hardware acceleration. My network works and so does my audio (cause I use an USB audio adapter) and thank you! can you help me figure out the graphics though? i dont remember but I think i booted with GraphicsEnabler=No. i guess ill try Yes.

Eweie Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 well, ive tried 3 different kernels and different bootflags that dont seem to matter much, it will still boot to the desktop with graphicsenabler set to no but not Yes, it will just get stuck on bootup. everything except icloud seems to be working fine.

Eweie Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 Update: I got it to recognise my graphics card and now i have the full resolution but i still have to boot with graphics enabler set to no and i got no hardware acceleration. if i boot with YES it will boot but i only see a grey screen... but the OS is loaded to the desktop. I think I'm getting close.

Skorpion96 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 TheShewolf you can create a dmg of your drive, because I've your same mobo and AMD Sempron processor, and I'm trying to install mavericks with no success. You can create a torrent or upload the necessary and give me the instructions. At this moment I'm at still waiting for root device...

Eweie Posted February 28, 2016 Author Share Posted February 28, 2016 TheShewolf you can create a dmg of your drive, because I've your same mobo and AMD Sempron processor, and I'm trying to install mavericks with no success. You can create a torrent or upload the necessary and give me the instructions. At this moment I'm at still waiting for root device... sorry but i haven't had that mobo in a year. but get to run mavericks very well, everything should be documented in this thread. but if you still need an image of mavericks anyway, you can search for "sparse image" in tpb (I think it's against the rules to link) and the same image i used is there. you'll have to do the rest of the legwork like I did though. I think that mobo might be capable of running an even later version of OS X though not sure. good luck.

Skorpion96 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Not important, I'm on installer now but I have windows 7 and then a mbr map of hard drive so i need a mbr patch, but i think not exist (for niresh distribution). I've tried to install mavericks on a USB but at 1 minute to end the computer rebooted Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295868-need-help-installing-mavericks-on-mobo-without-ahci/page/2/#findComment-2219077 Share on other sites More sharing options...
