Problems with SATA/pata controller (Nforce 430)
Hi infinnitemac community !
I have just registered, but I was reading in here for a week or two now. After a couple attempts, I was able to fully understand how to make the procces of installing an OSX in my PC sucessfully, but I have three problems: (See specs in my sig first!) -DVD burner it's recognized, but doesn't read/write anything and tooks years to eject a disk trying to read it. (I don't know how to fix this, also it's a LG burner... it should work) -Slow boot, like 1/2 minutes. This slow boot it's for IOkitwaitquiet() -Fixing the IOkitwaitquiet, I've installed patched IOATAFamily.kext with good results (Boot time: 20/30 seconds) but then my PATA (IDE) controller stops working. (Not detecting my 160 GB storage barracuda disk) I tried so far... like 4 versions of applenforceata.kext, 2 or 3 of IOATAfamily.kext (One for ICH10 that makes the same as the original ioatafamily, pata+slow boot), appleviaata.kext 2.0 and jmicron.kext 0.6 and nothing gives me a better result. I'm requesting some help from here, I can't figure out how to make this. All the other hardware is working flawlessly (Except sleeping, meh). All the help would be highly appreciated, Sorry for my english, I'm spanish. Waves :) |
I've just remebered a little thing. When the patched IOATAfamily.kext it's running, sleep works. I'm confused about this. Also, AppleNForceATA.kext from http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/ind...howtopic=35985 not even boots.
I don't want, but I will continue testing hopefully random kexts. At least I can restore the changes with a tiger virtual machine on windows with the leopard partition as a disk in the virtual machine so I't can't be much worse as that (if leopard didn't boot). EDIT: Any help? Waves. |
Hi again ^^
I don't want to be rude, but i'm still needing help :P Last few days, I've tried some kexts, getting the fast non pata and the pata and slow things all the way. DVD drive seems like unsupported, or something. Now it don't even boots when a CD/DVD is in the drive. I would like to be answered, even if you don't know how to do it or if it can be done. Bye |
