sudo chown -R root:wheel * sudo chmod -R 755 * on "extra/extensions" and "system/library/estensions/" directory. One of the errors says something like this: launchctl: please convert the folllowing to launchd: /etc/mach_init.d/dashboardadvidsoryd.plist and the another says: **AppleSMBusPCI::start failed to get acpi path for provider ACPI_SMC_PlatformPluggin::pushCPU_CSTData - _CST evaluation failed |

Ups... i think it was permissions!! i ussed kext helper to repair...! and remake extenssions.mkext but still stuck, i think its
launchctl: Please convert the following to launchd: /etc/mach_init.d/ dashboardadvisoryd.plist... .. :s ... in other mather, i updated to 10.5.8 the other partition with ideneb patch.. everything works fine.. but i want SN :( im ussing your kext, and i tried this to http://www.ihackintosh.com/2009/08/h...-pc-hackintosh but i had to put jmicronATA to the kext of that link, because of the ide disk... but rigth now i have yours,,, Im installing on an ide disk because the sata doesnt have gpt partition table, and i cant format, because i have vista, seven and leopard there |
Install Snow... I think you messed up somewhere... Just redo it, and use all the kexts listed on the first page and repair permissions with kext utility.

Hey there X. So I got my x58/i7920/gtx260 up and running. Thing runs SUHWEET. I actually didn't use your guide. I went with Empire EFI and was able to get as close to retail as I could. The only thing I'm still having trouble with is sleep. I've changed the bios settings to S3 and OS controlled, but my machine still shuts down when i try to sleep it. Someone mentioned sleepenabler kext somewhere in this thread. Are you using it in conjunction with the bios settings? I haven't tried it since updating to 10.6.2, but it didn't work before when I had it.
Also, you mentioned you had your 920 OC'd to 3.6 at upper 30's C. I've also got mine OC'd to 3.6 but it stays in the mid 40's. What are you using to cool it? I know 40's are fine, but the cooler the better right? Anyhow, kudos on this guide and also thanks for your help in the gtx 260 guide. Later! |
Thanks InteliMacPro! It does run very nice. The cooler I use is the V8. It runs great in my HAF932 (very vented case) But after a while of use, the temp stays at 43 degrees. I under-clocked (still overclocked) to 3.3ghz for now because I don't need that much horsepower yet. My sleep seems to work fine, no sleep kexts needed.
Also, im quite surprised people have the same specs as me, some EXACTLY the same. And all of us doing Hackintosh installs. Haha. Hows Empire EFI going? Is it better than Chameleon/PC EFI? Does it have EFI64? Also, with PC-EFI 10.5 and FakeSMC 2.5, I get as close to retail as possible too. With FakeSMC, your Hac thinks it has an SMC chip.

Nice. Mine thinks it's a Mac Mini though. I really like Empire EFI. I may have to try PC EFI though. I think I read somewhere in this thread that their bootloader made their sleep work. I just like that Empire EFI lets me install from the SL DVD so no need for iPC base. Is your RAM really running at 1600MHz? Can't seem to get mine above 1333 and then i read that the X58 Platinum only goes up to 1333.
You set your processor speed in system profiler manually, right? |
