sitherah Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 The installation works fine and I can boot from the USB installer but when booting from the HDD alone, I get still waiting for root device. I figure that this happens because when you boot from the USB installer, it has the addition kexts included with the installer to make it very "generic" Boot from HHD Alone: gets PCI config, stalls trying to find boot Boot from USB and Select HDD: Got boot device, enter desktop So where might I be able to find that data on the Mavericks image? Like where the Preboot.dmg was on the Mountain Lion image? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
