good to hear...
i just woke up and i will get on to fixing the script now...
so yeh being able to boot into a new snow installation without any panics or freezes is only half the battler... getting all ur other devices detected and working is the other half (which is sort of out of the scope of my script)
anyways...
- why do u think ur nvidia card isnt detected properly? does the video seem laggy? is it not listed under "system profiler" > "graphics/display" > "chipset model". if it does say your graphic card name there, it is detected. if u r worried about not seeing any info about "QE/CI" dont worry. the new system profiler doesnt show that info anymore.
anyways, if you want to try efi strings or injectors, you have to edit the boot plist and change the "GraphicsEnabler=Yes" to "No"
osx86tools has the 9800gtx efi string... try that... it will also let u create a custom efi string also...
- sound + network kexts do not work from /Extra/Extensions. move them to /System/Library/Extensions and run the following:
- sudo chown -R root:wheel /system/library/extensions
- sudo chmod -R 755 /system/library/extensions
- sudo diskutil repairpermissions /volumes/NAMEOFSNOWVOLUME
- sudo touch /system/library/extensions
- dont worry about the following error. it gets displayed every time but it works. you wouldnt have been able to boot into snow if it didnt do its job:
Enter 'help' for information
fdisk: 1> Partition 2 marked active
fdisk:*1> Writing current MBR to disk.
Device could not be accessed exclusively
and have u tried installing osx via the installer and then running script rather than the other way around like i've suggested in my guide? that might resolve the installer error about not being able to start osx and ending prematurely...
the funny thing is... i didnt experience any of these problems when testing this on my system... but this is good... the script will get more stable this way and it will work for a lot more ppl in the future...
