Almost the but need some help
Need some help...
Lawless PPC seems to be the latest install that would work for me (10.5.4) on my ASUS M2A-VM HDMI. All the other distros are "Still Waiting for root Device" Idunno how long they gonna wait. For fun I got an M2N-SLI iPC 10.5.6 installs fine but Voodoo 9.5 panics randomly even just before the finder loads and the system runs ever so slowly after the install. Great install on the M2A with Lawless but I can't extract large packages it seems, it freezes near the end. Zeph's AMD Patcher suffers the same fate, seems as it's going fine then freezes near the end. So no ASU. I downloaded the combo update (10.5.6) but can't extract or install or do anything. I also suffer from the install freezing just near the end of the install with the 8GB RAM. I removed two of the modules to install. Curiously it only freezes with the 8GB if I Erase/Reformat before the install. If I leave the drive intact the install completes successfully and works well (what the heck is that)? Another question - since I am running a Phenom x4 do I *HAVE* to use the Voodoo Kernel? It seems to be very unstable for me and the Universal Kernel Works well. Can anyone help with the freezing whilst trying to extract packages? Edit: Oh yeah, one more does -v do anything beside verbose mode? It seems that if I try to boot (dvd or installation) without -v I get panic or error "You need to restart blah blah", but -v boots great every time. I hope someone will help to get this running perfectly As I type I am installing on the M2N whilst running the M2A nicely only without Hardware Graphics tho. M2A-VM HDMI AMD Phenom 9750 X4 4x Markvision 2GB DDR2 RAM [8GB Total] 2x Maxtor/Seagate 500GB SATAII HDs 1x Maxtor 250GB SATA HD 1x WDC 250GB SATA HD 1x WDC 200GB PATA Pioneer DVR-116 IDE XFX GeForce 8600GT 1GB (Not working yet, hopefully will after the updates) Last edited by PangOS; 02-09-2009 at 07:38 AM. |

Help please!!!!
Ok, finally, I have to pick the hard drive as the boot source, and the OS loads famously. But my keyboard and touchpad weren't working, so I downloaded a PS/2 fix and now I can't boot my hard drive. It gets to the firewire device and says still waiting for root device. and I can't reinstall from the disk because when running the disk it gets to my wireless card and says that the Lawless boot disk is read only, duh, and won't progress. HELP PLEASE!!!! I don't care if I have to do a fresh install, just tell me how to get it past that point so I can....

I used your original version of mac osx, I've not modified anything on it. Can you suggest which disabled kext I need? And how do I add it to the disc(or how do I install it? I'm a noob when it comes to mac) cheers!

you need intelcpupmdisabler.kext then do a search for kext injection or run voodoo kernel as this will ignore the kext

Your specs said you have 2GB of memory & you have the Asus M3A motherboard. The link I posted is for people who have problems with using more than 3.5/3.5 gb of memory so you shouldn't have this problem. Forgive me as I have not read all the posts. Your mobo has the amd 770 north bridge and the sb600 southbridge. You should place your system specs including chipset in your signature this. It will then appear on every post you make. How to edit your signature: http://www.infinitemac.com/faq.php?f...atures_avatars *Tell me what options you selected during install. 💡 Deploy cloud instances seamlessly on DigitalOcean.
