[Beastly Success] Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H - 100% - NODSDT
This board is a personal system so I planned as much time as needed to build and install. As a result I was pleased to see everything move seamlessly from step to step not having to back up or work around anything unforeseen.
My new 'mini' Mac Pro consists of the following:
GA-B75M-D3H (Rev 1.0 - F6)
Xeon E3-1230v2
16gb (4x2gb) Corsair 1600 XMP
Corsair Force 3 120gb SSD
XFX GTX285
3x 500gb WD Black
All hardware identified and supported as designed. Every function of OSX supported without coding or hacking beyond normal audio, lan, and chipset kext.
NO DSDT FILE, 100% functionality with Shutdown, Restart, Sleep, Wake, iCloud, AppStore, Update, all hardware identified through System Information, and stellar performance through SATA3 and USB3. Wake from sleep is instant.
{GUIDE}
Purchase Mountain Lion from AppStore (10.8.1)
Download UniBeast (ML-1.5.3)
Download MultiBeast (ML-5.0.2)
Download KextBeast
Create UniBeast per guide - http://www.tonymacx86.com/61-unibeast-install-os-x-mountain-lion-any-supported-intel-based-pc.html
Make new folder on UniBeast stick called (Post_Install) - Copy MultiBeast, KextBeast, AHCISeries7Injector.kext to folder
Shutdown computer and install new hardware - power on
BIOS settings:
Load UEFI Defaults - Reboot
Enter BIOS again
Select AHCI SATA (there are a few other tweaks you can make, but that is all that is needed)
Reboot and insert UniBeast
At Gigabyte splash screen press F12
Select UniBeast - At loader screen type PCIRootUID=0 press Enter
At install screen open Disk Utility and select drive - 1-Partition - GUID - Mac OS Extended - Label
Apply partitioning and exit Disk Utility
Select drive and install ML
Reboot
Press F12 and select UniBeast
At UniBeast loader screen select your ML installation disk - Type PCIRootUID=0 press Enter
Finish install and registration
At desktop prepare disk for boot and kexts as follows.
Open Post_Install folder and drag all contents to desktop
Open MultiBeast:
Select UserDSDT or DSDT-Free
Audio - Select Realtek x887 (without DSDT version, Current)
Network - Select Realtek Gigabyte Ethernet 2.0.6 for 10.7
Disk - Select IOAHCIBlockStorageInjector (So drives show internal - *should also have swappable function - not tested*)
Click Continue and confirm install for MultiBeast
Reboot to new ML install disk
At desktop apply AHCI Injector as follows:
Open KextBeast:
Select install drive and confirm (injecting AppleAHCIInjector on desktop so ports are seen as Intel7)
Reboot
Once back at the desktop adjust personal OS settings as desired and your done!
100% CustoMac
Side note: The Gigabyte bios appears to be communicating with the graphics card (which by default runs the fan from ~60% to 100%) and when it is not necessary for the fan to be running at ~60% the bios turns it down to less than audible (not sure the actual rpm.)
