Nummy Posted October 14, 2013 Author Posted October 14, 2013 so I actually fu*ked up at installation? If I understand this now correctly I have to have 2 partitions on HDD where I install OS X? One is about 30MB big, FAT32 and another one the rest of the disk with mac partition? Then I install OS X and then copy stuff from USB to that FAT32 partition? If that is correct, can I copy stuff in windows? I'm not that savvy with mac terminal.
pernacabeluda Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 If your HD is partitioned as GUID it already has that 200 MB partition which is the EFI partition. If your HD if partitioned as MBR, UEFI boot won't work, so you should re-partition it as GUID and install again. -Guides and Tutorials HERE -Hackintosh Tutorial Database - HERE -The largest EFI folder collection for Hackintosh HERE -Support Olarila Vanilla Hackintosh by making a donation HERE -Professional Consulting for macOS Hackintosh since 2006 HERE
Nummy Posted October 14, 2013 Author Posted October 14, 2013 Ah yes I see 200MB partition in disk manager in windows. Is there an option to copy files from USB to that partition in windows?
pernacabeluda Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 I guess so, but I never did it. http://windowsitpro.com/windows/jsi-tip-4841-how-do-i-access-efi-extensible-firmware-interface-partition-ia64-computer -Guides and Tutorials HERE -Hackintosh Tutorial Database - HERE -The largest EFI folder collection for Hackintosh HERE -Support Olarila Vanilla Hackintosh by making a donation HERE -Professional Consulting for macOS Hackintosh since 2006 HERE
Nummy Posted October 14, 2013 Author Posted October 14, 2013 I tried to copy inside OS X in safe mode, but I got error when I tried to mount that ms-dos partition... something about msdosfs.kext isn't allowed at that boot level.... what now?
pernacabeluda Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Do not use safe boot. -Guides and Tutorials HERE -Hackintosh Tutorial Database - HERE -The largest EFI folder collection for Hackintosh HERE -Support Olarila Vanilla Hackintosh by making a donation HERE -Professional Consulting for macOS Hackintosh since 2006 HERE
Nummy Posted October 14, 2013 Author Posted October 14, 2013 I can't get into OS X without safe boot...
pernacabeluda Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 You better fix that first. Many things don't work in safe mode. -Guides and Tutorials HERE -Hackintosh Tutorial Database - HERE -The largest EFI folder collection for Hackintosh HERE -Support Olarila Vanilla Hackintosh by making a donation HERE -Professional Consulting for macOS Hackintosh since 2006 HERE
Nummy Posted October 14, 2013 Author Posted October 14, 2013 Yeah well I don't know how to fix that. If I run without any flags I get an bunch of SMC errors (picture on first page) and I can't get into OS. If I change any CPU parameter in bootloader I get kernel panic and freeze. I tried almost everything. I'm actually playing with few distros since friday, but this one is actually as far I could get. I don't even know what is wrong with my installation/drivers. Graphics drivers seems to work under safe mode, but I can't say for normal mode. I can confirm, that sound and network doesn't work under safe mode. Looks like I'm biting into an apple I can't eat too fast here... I thought this would be easier. Now I'm really scared about buying a real mac, if anything happens I will be screwed for weeks or dish out money for repairs on service
pernacabeluda Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Try disabling Graphics Injection in Clover options menu. I used an GTX 680 which didn't work if it was enabled. -Guides and Tutorials HERE -Hackintosh Tutorial Database - HERE -The largest EFI folder collection for Hackintosh HERE -Support Olarila Vanilla Hackintosh by making a donation HERE -Professional Consulting for macOS Hackintosh since 2006 HERE
Nummy Posted October 14, 2013 Author Posted October 14, 2013 It's actually everything disabled. There is only one or two things enabled in CPU menu and one in binary patching menu. If I let everything alone I can boot up to gray background and spinning mouse cursor when I try to boot up to OS installer.
pernacabeluda Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Are you sure? Graphics Injection is enabled by default. Try using this kext (replace the original and boot without caches) http://Olarila.com/forum/download/file.php?id=4510 -Guides and Tutorials HERE -Hackintosh Tutorial Database - HERE -The largest EFI folder collection for Hackintosh HERE -Support Olarila Vanilla Hackintosh by making a donation HERE -Professional Consulting for macOS Hackintosh since 2006 HERE
Nummy Posted October 14, 2013 Author Posted October 14, 2013 If you mean using GraphicsEnabler=No and no '+'-es inside GPU menu... If I boot OS installer without flags I get something graphical, but it just "hangs" and waits and nothing happens. My thinking is that if it would be GPU driver problem then I wouldn't even see mouse cursor. What is a flag to boot without caches?
pernacabeluda Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Press space bar and select "without caches". -Guides and Tutorials HERE -Hackintosh Tutorial Database - HERE -The largest EFI folder collection for Hackintosh HERE -Support Olarila Vanilla Hackintosh by making a donation HERE -Professional Consulting for macOS Hackintosh since 2006 HERE
Nummy Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 That new kext actually worked! I changed kext with transmac and then booted with -f GraphicsEnabler=No and it booted without a single error, except something with network: network delay is not set or something like that (probably I don't have driver for it installed yet?). Today I'm going to move bootloader to EFI partition and then I should follow multishit guide to install drivers? P.S.: also thank you very much for your time and help! I owe you a beer or two.

Nummy Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 I believe zou. But I managed to install driver with multishit and I will listen your advice and not touch it again. Ok I have successfully installed bootloader and it works. Now how do I save options there so I don/t need to write it always? I only need GraphicsEnabler=No there now. Also one more thing that does not work now is: when I reboot or shutdown OS hangs. It goes to gray screen and then nothing happens. Only reset button works, but I think that is damaging my system. What to do here? Also I'm already writting from mac now
pernacabeluda Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 You need to edit config.plist, read the Clover wiki http://Olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=3198 After you configure it for power management, delete NullCPUPowerManagement from EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.9 -Guides and Tutorials HERE -Hackintosh Tutorial Database - HERE -The largest EFI folder collection for Hackintosh HERE -Support Olarila Vanilla Hackintosh by making a donation HERE -Professional Consulting for macOS Hackintosh since 2006 HERE
Nummy Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 Ok another update: I installed sound (actually my 13 years old sound blaster audigy works perfectly fine!!! I'm impressed!) and wacom tablet. After installation I got reboot working. Here is error I'm constantly getting (attached). I will now get clover configurator and try to do it with that. Thanks for your help!
pernacabeluda Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 You have to set correct permissions and ownership for installed kexts, use Kext Wizard. -Guides and Tutorials HERE -Hackintosh Tutorial Database - HERE -The largest EFI folder collection for Hackintosh HERE -Support Olarila Vanilla Hackintosh by making a donation HERE -Professional Consulting for macOS Hackintosh since 2006 HERE
Nummy Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 Ok I have no clue what to do with that config.plist file. I mean I don/t know what to select and what not... Should I go with all "fixes"?
