thejollyboys Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Guy's, I have been reading the forums for about a week now and taken all the advice and bought a Sata DVD rom drive. Tried to boot from it but I keep getting the above error. I have tried all switches known to me. Even tried using the rd=disk setting but I think that would only work if i could get past this error. Is there some thing i have to do to prepare the blank HDD. I have formatted the drive fat32. There must be somebody out there that knows how to fix this. I've seen a few people with the same issue. PLEASE help it is drving me mad and has become a personnal mission to get this going now. Set up as in other posts. Iatkosv1.0, iatkosv1.0r2, kalyway 10.5.1, kalyway 10.5.2 all tried all the same result. Asus P5KPL-VM - does not seem to have the jmicron chip on if it has i cannot find the settings in the bios, and i have seen every setting about 4 million times. Sata attached HDD to sata port 1 Sata DVD rom attached to sata port 2 Thanks for any help or pointers anyone can offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thejollyboys Posted April 18, 2008 Author Share Posted April 18, 2008 Guy's, I have seen other people on this forum who have this motherboard working. I wonder if you could share how you did it? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parm289 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 I know its hard to get replies here. I dont have osx installed but i have a suggestion. Try formatting the entire disk as a fat32 partition and flag it as bootable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejollyboys Posted April 18, 2008 Author Share Posted April 18, 2008 Macker, thanks. I'm not sure how to do that on my board. It's not the greatest bios for configuration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejollyboys Posted April 19, 2008 Author Share Posted April 19, 2008 parm289, You're right, not easy to get answers here. I've even pm'd people with no luck. Thanks, I have formatted the entire disk to fat32. Not sure what you mean when you say mark it as bootable? Do you mean in the bios or in the format process? Thanks.

Bearcat Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Anybody any ideas please. I've still not been able to fix this error, getting very frustrated now especially as others on this forum claim to have this mobo working with Kalyway disk! Thanks. I also have an ASUS P5KPL-VM board. I had the board working a while ago, but I bought 2 other boards, and swapped things around. I have just purchased a Q6600 and 2GB of ram, for the P5KPL-VM board, and have been trying to set it up again. I have 2 IDE drives on it, and am booting with a USB DVD drive, but that doesn't really matter. The problem I'm having is the same as everyone else above: waiting on <dict ID="0"><key>IOProviderClass</Key><String ID="1">IOResources</string><key>IOResourceMatch</key><string id="2">boot_uuid_media</string></dict> I even tried installing the drive on another machine, and connecting it to the P5KPL-VM, booted, and got the same problem. I tried swapping the disks as master and slave, and back again, to no avail. I pondered on how I got it working the first time, and jotted down the configuration I used. The only difference I could tell, was the first time I had a graphics card in the box. Then I found this post by LVNeptune, and gave it a try. http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=117746 I pulled the 7300GT card that I had used from the new machine and put it in the P5KPL-VM, set the BIOS Northbridge configuration for Initial Display to PCI/PEG, and the Internal Display line below it to disabled. The Kalyway 10.5.2 disk booted up, and didn't stop on the "waiting on" line above, it continued, I installed to the hard disk, rebooted, and it booted up completely from the hard disk. I don't understand, but something with the integrated graphics is causing the bootup to hang. It may be the amount of memory for the integrated graphics. Even though I had set it to 8MB in the BIOS, when the machine booted the BIOS message at the beginning showed 7MB. I suspect 7MB is not enough for OSX to boot, but that's just speculation. In any event, put in a supported graphics card, and it will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
