Changed the settings in the bios. In spite of the biossettings of Kaido (page 1) i disabled the AHCI mode under integrated peripherals. This did the trick for me. Have now 4 SATA ports working!!!
Yes Mosslack, this is a GA-P35-DS3L and I also do find it strange that not everything was working after installing the package of Kaido.
I am now trying to find a workaround method for the 3rd and 4rth SATA port. Mayby I just have to put the second HD in through the USB port in the back...
Thanks for your help Mosslack
Downloaded the bootloader from page 14 (was it page 14?) and installed it. OSX now working without USB stick. Still a few issues.
OSX is not recognizing SATA port 04 and 05. This seems to be a known problem. I tried to find a solution with the NVKush kext...
Thanks for your support Mosslack. Moral support from this forum helped me a lot during the whole proces of installing the hackintosh!!!
Fixed the problem with the 2nd HD. I took my 1st HD out and booted from the boot cd and continued with the install cd from OSX. Before installing OSX i...
I am getting confused now. Removed the USB Stick before the bootingproces. Computer hangs and doesn't finish the boot process. It had the USB as the first priority for booting, but the HDD as the second, so this shouldn't matter.
So I've put everything back and it works flawlessly again. I...
Hi Mosslak,
Thanks for your reply. I realy appreciate your help. Checked again the bios settings. They're all according to Kaido's guidelines. Maybe the drive is giving troubles because it isn't formatted yet?
You are right. I am still using the USB Startup method which is pointed out in...
It is my 2nd SATA HD I've put it in SATA socket No 4 after the DVD in 0 and HD1 in 1
Maybe I'd better connect it with a sata - usb cable to a free USB port, since OSX recognises my external HD
I am having a little trouble installing my second hard drive. The bios is recognising the 2nd HD perfectly well. But when I am in OSX my program only recognises the first harddrive. Anybody with with a good suggestion? Thanks
Hi Kaido,
Added the parts of the computer together this weekend and installed my retail OSX on the HD. I'm now at the part of inserting the USB Stick and ran into a few problems. The hackintosh doesn't boot from it.
* I did install the bootloader onto it (syslinux -ma J: ) and copied all...
Hi Kaido. I am starting on tuesday with putting my Hackintosh together. A little delayed due to availability problems. Have everything ready and fully prepared by then but since you also mentioned video tutorials and dif methods using boot 132 I would like to wait untill your wiki is ready...
Hi Kaido,
I am still not sure about the retail version of OS X. I am buying the 10.5.4. version tomorrow, but I am wondering if I am binded to the single version (MB576) or if the family pack (MB022) will do the job as well? Strangely enough the single version is much more expensive than the...
