I have installed but it doesnt boot. I think its probably my hardware. I have
processor : AMD Athlon 64 3200+ (MMX (+), 3DNow! (+), SSE, SSE2, SSE3, x86-64) northbridge: NVIDIA nForce4 rev. A3 southbridge : NVIDIA nForce4 MCP rev. A3 graphics card : GeForce 6500. Forgot to include I have SATA drives. I have just installed the kext for NVinject but it didnt change anything! Can someone please help? |
what kind of "not booting" is it ?
HFS+ Partition error ? or stands still at Darwin load?? a screenshot would be great . (digicam) |
Tried taking a picture and I think I may have broke my phone : ( Not the best day I have had!
Been trying to get something from the log files but can see anything relevant. Can you suggest. |
Just put the AppleNForceATA.kext in the Extensions dir and it still doesnt work! Seems like it failing at this point.
Any ideas? |
Did you repair permissions ?
Did you recreate the kextcache ? |
Thanks for replying zephyroth.
I moved a kext from the Extensions directory which appeared to causing the problem. Cant remember the what it was exactly something like applendes .... I dont know I cant remember. Anyway it seems to have got a bit further and its picked up my graphics card but then say... DirectoryService: Couldnt find root user. Sleeping and trying again. DirectoryService: Couldnt find root user. Sleeping and trying again. DirectoryService: Couldnt find root user. Sleeping and trying again. DirectoryService: Couldnt find root user. Sleeping and trying again. ..... Maybe this is the applendes.... Maybe it stands for directory service. I dont know. Anyway I have repaired permissions. Allow when I done this and re-run it, it says something else is wrong with the filesystem!!!! I havent recreated the kextcache. Dont know how to do that. Will have a look on the net. |
kextcache -a i386 -e :)

Cheers for that roisoft : )
That file I mentioned earlier. It wasnt anything like applendes. I was NVDAResma.kext!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What is this file Just put it back in the extensions dir and falls over like it did previously. Anyway I am still getting: DirectoryService: Couldnt find root user. Sleeping and trying again. DirectoryService: Couldnt find root user. Sleeping and trying again. DirectoryService: Couldnt find root user. Sleeping and trying again. DirectoryService: Couldnt find root user. Sleeping and trying again. What are the exact commands that I need to do: clear the kext cache repair permissons then finally create the kext cache again? I presume this is the correct order? |
yes

I have moved all the GeForce kext from the Extensions dir. That didnt make a difference. : ( What does it mean when it displays DirectoryService: Couldnt find root user. Sleeping and trying again. DirectoryService: Couldnt find root user. Sleeping and trying again. DirectoryService: Couldnt find root user. Sleeping and trying again. DirectoryService: Couldnt find root user. Sleeping and trying again. All the time? |
