    Virtualbox - *within* 10.6.8, linux - network issues

    .. to explain further... Mac is the host, Linux is the guest. Tried with several different Virtualbox network configurations - NAT is fine, it's only when I switch to Bridged that the network on my Hackintosh dies.

    Virtualbox - *within* 10.6.8, linux - network issues

    After a few days of running with no issues, I'm encountering issues when trying to run virtualbox. On first starting up Virtualbox, my network died - I put it down to router issues and rebooted, network worked again. Now, obviously, Virtualbox installs network drivers, so I suspect that this...

    Cant Boot Into SL

    Did you install EasyDSDT or UserDSDT ? Either way, try boot in with these flags: -v DSDT=NO If you can get in with that, your on your way to resolving the issues.

    Blue screen after updating to 10.6.8

    1. How long did you wait on the blue screen ? I've known it to take 5 minutes then suddenly kicks into the desktop 2. Did you follow the combo update guide? iow, install 10.6.8 from a downloaded combo update and then run multibeast? 3. Do you have a backup prior to install of 10.6.8? 4. Can you...

    How to Fix the Problem [PCI Configuration Begin]

    I'm going to skip Lion for some time - no real point. A lot of the updates are related to gestures - plus my GF has had a number of issues with Lion on her iMac, 10.6.8 is good for another year whilst Lion matures a bit :) All I really wanted was my Macbook pro back (which I sold due to...

    How to Fix the Problem [PCI Configuration Begin]

    Just to note, I successfully did a system update - supplemental 10.6.8 update - worked like a charm, no troubles at all!

    My First Hackintosh (Sandy Bridge)

    Don't use the Software update from the apple menu, download the 10.6.8 combo update and install that, then run multibeast. Also, instead of re-installing all the time, try to boot from iBoot with flags: -v DSDT=NO That's the mistake I was making - continually re-installing, which takes ages...

    SOLVED ! Followed customac install to the letter, no luck

    Have you tried the info from that thread I linked? Work through it slowly and carefully - however, it was Nvidia specific I think? Have you been getting the same pci config error on -v boot? Can you boot in using iBoot ? That's the most important thing - if you can get your system up using...

    SOLVED ! Followed customac install to the letter, no luck

    Re: Followed customac install to the letter, no luck, frustrated I should note here, that interestingly enough, my initial thought that it was Nvidia card right back in my first post of this thread was correct! Despite a few (well meaning) people telling me it wasn't, it turns out ... it was...

    SOLVED ! Followed customac install to the letter, no luck

    Re: Followed customac install to the letter, no luck, frustrated No, but do this: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=28892&start=0 Boot from iBoot with -v DSDT=NO Run the updatehelper Run the 10.6.8 combo Then follow the instructions in that link I posted. Most important, as it says, don't select the...

    How to Fix the Problem [PCI Configuration Begin]

    Yes! Nice one akhilv1! If I'd known this three days ago, my build would've taken 2 hours including hardware assembly! My only concern now, of course, is how 'upgradable' is my rig now there's 1.6.7 kexts in a 10.6.8 install? That's the one area where I just don't know enough - if I run any...

    SOLVED ! Followed customac install to the letter, no luck

    Re: Followed customac install to the letter, no luck, frustrated I think you'll still need a DSDT file regardless. I've just tested by removing the DSDT file from Extras and rebooting - boots without requiring flags, except graphics are at lowest res - the same as your experiencing. I've got...

    SOLVED ! Followed customac install to the letter, no luck

    Re: Followed customac install to the letter, no luck, frustrated Back onto this again today :) dschneid, any luck with your install? Ok, quick update for me - should've been obvious really... iBoot no longer required now install is done, as I can boot from HD with the same options as iBoot to...
