SANDY BRIDGE INSTALLATION

[marcoscar]

@karacho

thanks for your answer... I will try at miday or this evening and let you you konw how it works.
I saw on your post, that I have to instal the "IOUSBFamily Rollback" and the "USB 3.0 NEC/RENESAS".. will it fix the USB2.0 probleme too?
Do I have to reinstal the "IOUSBFamily Rollback" if I've done it after my 10.6.8 udpate?Must

I boot with iboot to run multibeast? or can I run it directly from a normal boot?
need I to type something at the boot creen?

thanks for your patience!

Sure i did! I did it the way i discribed it above!
Updatehelper
Reboot with iboot
Combo update
Reboot with iboot
MultiBeast with your configuration
Any solutions for me?

Here's a decription what UpdateHelper is doing: UpdateHelper deletes the ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin.kext from IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext plugins folder (in System/Library/Extensions). And now have a look through your Message where it Stucks above

Now you can try to boot in Single User Mode. When you can get the Admin Terminal type...

fsck -fy

If you get a Message the Filsystem was modified, repeat the fsck command until OSX tells you that your HDD appears to be OK. Then type...

mount -uw /
rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin.kext/
reboot

On the Chimera Bootscreen again, type -f -v and hit Enter. When you can get to your Desktop, run Kext Wizard and rebuild the kextcaches and repair the Permissions on the HDD

Yeah i think so. The "USB 3.0 NEC/RENESAS" enable your USB3 Ports and the "IOUSBFamily Rollback" will fix your Probs with USB2.

Do I have to reinstal the "IOUSBFamily Rollback" if I've done it after my 10.6.8 udpate?

That isn't bad at all...just do it

or can I run it directly from a normal boot?

Yes, there's no need to boot up using iBoot if your System is able to boot w/o iBoot

Ok thanks but before i try this i have a few questions:

1. How do i boot in Single User Mode? Or is it just boot with iboot? And what is the difference between this and a normal boot?
2. How do i get to the admin terminal or is it automatically admin?
3. Should i repeat only the "fsck" command or "fsck -fy"?
4. After the "mount..." command, should i reboot without iBoot?

Thanks! (hope im not annoying..)

On the Bootscreen type -s

2. How do i get to the admin terminal or is it automatically admin?

You're automatically Admin if you're booting with -s and the Terminal Window appears

3. Should i repeat only the "fsck" command or "fsck -fy"?

fsck -fy (f=force y=always assume yes)

4. After the "mount..." command, should i reboot without iBoot?

Thanks! (hope im not annoying..)

Just do it like mentioned. If you were able to delete the kext from the Plugin Folder, type reboot and boot up w/o iBoot but type -f on the Bootscreen to bypass the kextcache. Then, hopefully on your Desktop again, rebuild the kextcaches and repair the permissions with Kext Witard

Ok i did everything you have said, and i think it deleted the .kext.
But now it stops at the following lines (boot without iboot)

** Device in slot: SLOT--1 **
com_lnx2mac_RealtekRTL81xx: Ethernet address f4:6d:04:af:74:83
virtual bool IOHIDEventSystemUserClients::initWithTask(task*, void*, UInt32): Client task not privileged to open IOHIDSystem for mapping memory

Ideas?
Thanks

On the Bootscreen type -f -v GraphicsEnabler=yes PciRootUID=1 npci=0x2000
If that don't work try -f -v GraphicsEnabler=yes PciRootUID=0 npci=0x2000
