Is this your first install?
I had similer problems, one thing though dont reinstall if you have a working Leo partition then boot to it and try removing the voodoo.kext if you installed it. Also try using this DSDT if you are still having problems just let me know |
This is the third time i've attempted SL on this machine. First was a USBKEY. 2nd and 3rd were direct to the 500 gig HD. Voodoo(HD?) is not installed at this point. 10.6 installed, no errors with the other parts, reboot, immediate KP and halts.
Since i've been trying to get Logic 9 installed this weekend I also attempted to get my Leopard 10.5.5 updated finally since it is a requirement but it also messed up (followed the guide at http://www.ihackintosh.com/2009/01/u...-1055-to-1056/ post install, Finder locked up and I was unable to clean cache/repair permissions and now the drive is inaccessible) and now I only have my macbook 13" unibody operational. Lord love a duck. =P |
Have you tried booting your system without the gfxstring?
I think on my first install I had dsmos.kext in Extra/Extensions . Remember the com.apple.Boot.plist goes in the Extra dir. |
:D
After many a day of poking at the broken machine, I tried SnowOSX 3.6 and it came right up. - sound: using VoodooHD instead, minimal caveat as it doesn't show in System Profiler (no built-in audio) but who cares :) - dvd: not showing up but I expect it is an incompatible JmicronATA kext. - no orange drive icons - managed to mount my old 10.5.5 drive and grab the gfxstring. Many many thanks for the board specific info in any case, it's really appreciated! As I read and learn more i'll be less of a noob. ;) |
One more question (there's always one more isn't there? :p
The motherboard has this: JMicronŽ JMB368 PATA and SATA controller - 1 x UltraDMA 133/100/66 for up to 2 PATA devices I sadly have to use it for my dvd drive (PATA), as my videocard covers too many sata ports. I see they fixed this on other motherboards later on by making the sockets 90 degrees edge on. I've tried various jmicron kexts with lots of KP's. Has anyone managed to use one and if so, what pray tell would it be? ;) Thanks in advance! EDIT: never mind.. JMicronATA.kext.AllJMicron.IDE.x86_64.zip did the trick. Cheers! |
its good to hear that you got it to work the way you want

What version of the BIOS are you running?
Or perhaps more importantly: what version of the BIOS is the dsdt file based on?
Thanks much for the guide and support! Daddy-0 |
No Screen Capture
Thanks for all of your help. I have all of my hardware working thanks to you. When I hit shift+command+3 or 4 I hear the camera click but no pic on the desktop or clipboard. Any suggestions? Fusion 3.0.1 is really slow too. but Virtual Box works well so I'm not too worried about that right now.

p5e-vm hdmi snow leopard install
Had no luck with my current card (ati 2600xt) and snow leopard ( I have 2 x 30" Apple Cinema Displays - work beautifully in 10.5.8). Why do I need a new card in 10.6.x ?
Currently borrowed an nvidia 9600gt (sitting on my desk) from a guy at work, hoping it will help. I'm planning the install using the following guide; http://aserebln.blogspot.com/ I have my external 30Gb 2.5" partitioned into 8Gb iATKOS7 for emergency repairs, 8Gb Snow Leopard Installer (from retail DVD - which I own), and 12Gb for my other installers, vlc, chrome, etc. I have also created a 2Gb USB Stick with chameleon boot loader as per the guide referred to above. I need some help with DSDT for ASUS P5E-VM HDMI board and EFI string for nvidia 9600GT. I've never done a dsdt decompile/patch, etc. I'm going to give it a go, has anyone here tried it for this board ? any luck with sleep, onboard audio, etc. I have DSDTSE installed, but I read that a dump should be taken under linux live cd to get a clean non-patched version of DSDT from the board ? Also I've never done anything with EFI String and video card, my 2600xt just worked when I installed iATKOS 7, now patched to 10.5.8. I'l let you guys know how it goes, I love this motherboard too much to replace it, but if I spend more than 2 days on it, might go gigabyte, and use the p5e-vm hdmi board as a HTPC. |
