Upgrade to 10.6.8 on my Acer 6930G?!?!?

Recommended Posts

Hi guys, Now my problem is: upgrade to 10.6.8 on my Acer 6930G ...


With 10.6.7, no problems, patched dsdt, audio and network functioning, and sleep ok. After the update with 10.6.8 combo, I reinstalled: iopcifamily.kext fix and AppleACPIPlatform.kext. Information taken from this thread:

http://www.tonycrapx86.com/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=22886

I repaired permissions but no boot. Freeze the apple logo and nothing ...

Tips ...


P.S. I also tried multishit 3.8, but nothing...

I boot-v and-v-x, as before ... nothing to do ...

My doubt is the SMBIOS ... MacBook Pro 8.1 was set as ...

Somewhere I read that it created problems with the update ...

MacPro 3.1 Should be fine ...

I do not understand ...

oldanapalm,

The last boot-v stopped, and the messages are:

FakeSMCDevice: 17 preconfigured keys added:

FakeSMCDevice: succesfully initialized

com.apple.AppleFSCompressionTypeZlib kmod start.com


First, the messages were related to the PCI configuration procedure. The last one was:

[PCI configuration end]


I'm sorry oldanapalm, but osx does not know very, very much ... :cry:

I don't understand. So it boots fine in verbose, but without -v it stays at the apple screen?

It is strange ... every 5 / 6-v boot, only 1 can do a normal boot.

If I did not start in-v mode, many times it stops on the Apple Logo screen ...

Now, when i boot, it's possible only in verbose mode, the procedure stops to:


FakeSMCDevice: 17 preconfigured keys added

FakeSMCDevice: succesfully initialized


Do you think, is necessary to do a clean installation with a 10.6.8 Combo re-update, following a right procedure?

No idea, I never saw such a thing.


Did you try booting after update without replacing IOPCIFamily and AppleACPIPlatform? If it hangs at "PCI configuration begin" you can try "npci=0x2000" as boot flag.

Do you have SMboardproduct in SMBIOS?

 

Yes, my SMboardproduct is: Mac Pro 3.1

I updated to 10.6.8 from 10.6.3 (Retail DVD version). I used your advice oldnapalm. Thanks again! The only problems I have now, are: USB Card Reader Integrated, which worked well in 10.6.7, using the package Apple Storage DriversV2 from:


http://www.kexts.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=618


I tried replacing AppleStorageDrivers.kext and AppleSDXC.kext with versions of 10.6.7, but nothing. For Audio, if I use the AppleHDA.kext patched with Enabler + Legacy versions of 10.6.7 no sounds... Voodoo? Some help-advice?

Thanks ...

Do NOT edit idProduct and idVendor that are under IOProviderMergeProperties, those are the injected values.

 

Thanks, I edited the info.plist as you suggest me. And now it works.

For suond, I tried again to make a list of verbs functioning, I had already followed the tutorial from The King sometimes, trying to patch the AppleHDA, but nothing. Now I followed your tutorial and I can have a working kext to 90 percent, because as usual the fuc... internal mic, does't want to work (I have an HDMI output on the left side of the notebook). I read somewhere that may be in conflict ...

Same as before, everything works but not the internal mic. I do not understand, is fine for now.

Now I try to install Lion ... before starting, and post any problems (in the right section) I wanted to ask what was the best installation method? xMove, USB Stick + Chameleon (by Maldon), DVD Install (by slipttees)??
