| iPC osx86 10.5.6 System Stall HDD Hopefully you can point me in the right direction? I have an almost perfect install of iPC OSX86 10.5.6 using the default Vanilla settings. i.e. EPI_V9, Vanilla kexts, no drivers required. However I have one major issue!

| iPC osx86 10.5.6 System Stall HDD “Partitioned my 1TB WDC Storage HDD… Guess what… … It works! So, for some reason 2 of my 80GB Hitachi Deskstar SATA2 HDD's don't work with AHCI. They work perfectly in Windows (RAID - but as non-raid devices), and work fine in IDE mode for O…” | Leopard 10.5 | 2009-07-01 8,994 dossier reads |
| iPC osx86 10.5.6 System Stall HDD “OK, so some more info... I thought I would install OSX via the eSATA AHCI JMicron controller instead. Therefore eliminating the onboard ICH9R AHCI. I could not get the thing to install... the installer saw the disk - and would let me partit…” | Leopard 10.5 | 2009-07-01 8,994 dossier reads |
| iPC osx86 10.5.6 System Stall HDD “I have already tried reducing my system memory to 2048 by physically pulling two of my memory modules (4x1Gb). I'll give maxmem a go again, just to see what happens. Cheers, Jon.” | Leopard 10.5 | 2009-07-01 8,994 dossier reads |
| iPC osx86 10.5.6 System Stall HDD “Thanks again for your reply. I received a new motherboard yesterday - Abit IP35 PRO XE - very nice it is too... Unfortunately it does not resolve my issues (although it does fix my annoying USB boot issue!) I still have problems with AHCI. …” | Leopard 10.5 | 2009-06-27 8,994 dossier reads |
| iPC osx86 10.5.6 System Stall HDD “Thanks for your reply... I will try the kext you mentioned, I have a few distros - it's bound to be on one of them! (is there also a kext for ICH9R RAID?) To be honest, a good while ago when I installed the ToH RC2 build I'm sure I didn't g…” | Leopard 10.5 | 2009-06-22 8,994 dossier reads |
| iPC osx86 10.5.6 System Stall HDD “If I was to boot in to IDE mode - what drivers would I need so that there would be not delays on boot and the DVDROM would work? Thanks, Jon.” | Leopard 10.5 | 2009-06-22 8,994 dossier reads |
| iPC osx86 10.5.6 System Stall HDD “Update :- In fact you can use a GTX275 now! Probably old news to you all, but netkas.org has an installer package and link to 2xx drivers (use the one from the comments - macpro check disabled). At least something good has come out of my ti…” | Leopard 10.5 | 2009-06-20 8,994 dossier reads |
| iPC osx86 10.5.6 System Stall HDD “Well, I've tried installing ToH 10.5 RC2... as far as I remember (it was quite a while ago) this never used to have any problems like I am experiencing now - but currently it is suffering from the same issue. I'm starting to think it must b…” | Leopard 10.5 | 2009-06-20 8,994 dossier reads |
| iPC osx86 10.5.6 System Stall HDD “Just an update, and it may possibly throw some light on the subject? Normally I boot in AHCI mode. My Motherboard supports AHCI / IDE / RAID (I would ideally like to boot in RAID, but I can't seem to get this to work) However, booting in ID…” | Leopard 10.5 | 2009-06-19 8,994 dossier reads |
