glitch77 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Works great on my rig, need to figure out why networking only works for a few minutes then I can't access the internet anymore. :/ Other than that, its working great. I picked NVINJECT from the config menu, and selected 768mb for my 8800gtx, and all is well. I tip my hat to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darksurge Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Ran great for me, used a wireless card i had and it worked! Used NVinject on the os disk and chose the correct amount of memoy- 768mb 8800gtx I also used an external usb dvd drive to install, worked great Oh and my sata drive are working great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyper Salad Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Mysticus thanks so much for all your help with everything. I tried your new iAtkos r3 after having freeze ups with my pro sound card with Kalyway. iAtkos solved it. I'm really pleased I got a 177 total on xbench. Now let me ask you a couple questions: 1: do you know how to make OSX on my sata drive bootable? - I cloned from my IDE drive to SATA and it didnt keep the bootloader intact. I tried clonetool hatchery, acronis and a few others, none of them worked. 2: do you know how to solve the IOKItWAIT stall that happens after installing the graphics kexts? It takes several extra minutes to boot up because of it stalling on the IOKitWait kext. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jehovah Cooper Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Great work Mysticus thanks to you and the whole team. This finally did the trick before I could not even get the installer to run now it runs, mounts Sata drive & all. After install I can only boot successfully in safe mode but I'm just playing with drivers and such now I think I'm on my way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glitch77 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 I did your tutorial about switching from nforceata.kext to the VIA one, and my performance went to about 5MB/s on everything, I put everything back and performance went back to 50-60 MB/s. Strange, I guess nforceata is better for my mobo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange, I guess nforceata is better for my mobo. thats one of the things with nforce, unpredictible, works perfect on one system, but not on the other... nothing i can do about it, like i said, some stuff are better to be learned by trial error on your particular systems... but i m not sure your problem is appleviaata... but wrong dev id... if u read my post about it, i say the id i used there is my own ide dev id, not same for everyone, find yours as i explained and put it in propar order, the reason u get 5mb/s is bcoz it is not using appleviaata, but instead applegenericpcata... which means it s running on pio mode... so you gotta try the method with your own dev id for IDE controller... if it still wouldnt work, than sorry out of luck... now gonna write about how to use nforce ata for sata drive, and appleviaata for pata drives.... just wait a little, i just got back... hypersalad: right a guide for you, on the way... just wait a bit... docX on board sound should work out of the box as stereo, if not something must be wrong, but i will upload it for you later... andy: i told in my guide, if u use appleviaata, u wont see your sata... why did you still do it?, a guide for you on the way as well, please reads things proparly and if you do not understand ask for clearing the doubts.... for others who are asking help, for god sake, please write a description of the problem, and please take time and write a signature with your hardware profiles in details like mine, as you can see on the very bottom of my posts... (of course you can only see the signature if you log on to the system... it doesnt help a mechanic saying, i have a problem, with my car help... there are thousand of cars in the world all with different specs and characters... also please read the guides properly, and understand the problems related to nforce chipset, (it s a pain in the neck chipset) and ask for some of the stuffs before you do it, when it s said not to do it, and you do it, and ask for help later, is a little bit not newbiesh, but noobity... on the title i said newbie purposely, because when you are new to some stuff, you read the stuff and understand it.... otherwise, i would use other words... i guess it is some people's nature to not read things properly... and cause trouble...

Very strange. if it s same it should work, obviously, you are missing some steps mate... either not delete mkext and kext cache and permission? i dont know how you added your id to appleviaata, also, at boot use -v -f as well after doing the steps... in the guide, i used terminal way and it s better and no need fixing permissions, however if you did gui way of adding dev id, than it may explain your problem, you have to fix the permissions...

I got it working finally. I really have no idea what was going on as I basically copy/pasted your instructions. Oh well, its working now on the VIA kext and I am seeing about the same read/write as you are in xbench. (On closer thought, I don't think I was using -F on reboot last night. I was too tired to be working on .kexts I guess, lol.) Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just for the record (if other people are using the same hardware as me and doing a search) AppleNForceATA.kext was working fine with no freezes or anything as far as I could tell, but AppleVIAATA.kext works much faster.

Mysticus C* Posted February 17, 2008 Author Share Posted February 17, 2008 Warning: to everyone who has iatkos right now, please do not share it with a guy named Hamb0ne please! The guy needs to learn some manners first, people try to help him, all he does is swearing at them... He swore at me 4-5 times and never apologized, after all I did was to help him or guide him.

VasH Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Hi all! After I've "scrambled" my system with the nvidia installer yesterday, I've reinstalled from scratch today. I've used the nvinject ane geforce patch from the iatkos DVD during installation and they work very well. Now I have full resolution, QE and Dual Display. :D System seems quite stable. My 2 Sata HD work well. Sleep doesn't work. I've removed all the "auto-sleep" function for system and hdd in the Energy Saver preferences. however I can live without that. For the network I've used an old realtek I've found in a drawer and it worked "out of the box". About audio, I have line out but not line in, I have still to search forum for this. The only annoying issue is with USB port. System profiler sees all my usb ports. I've connected a Bluetooth dongle and it works well. But if I connect an USB key, the system does not mount it. But if I look in the Sytem profiler the key is there, with all its correct specification. Any advice? However I would thank again Mysticus, Medevil and all the people involved in this release. Thank you guys (and girls). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
