Life saving indeed. Thank you.

I've installed 10.9.2 now. Still not getting anything. I've got it booting from Chimera, fixed all those basic HPET and DSMOS issues, so it boots without the USB stick. http://www.osx86.net/topic/19442-guide-get-icloud-app-store-and-imessage-working/ I tried the iCloud fix presented there...

I've essentially spent all day trying to figure this out. This hackintosh had been running 10.8.3-5 without issue. I do a clean install of 10.9.1 and iCloud won't connect on the set up: it gave a General Server Error. Everytime I try to connect via system preferences, it tells me to try again...

This post helped me out so much. Thanks GrinRoth. I finally got my first Hackintosh up and running with Mountain Lion. Same motherboard, and the NVidia 670. I used youtube.com/watch?v=FBfcZxZOQAw this tutorial to get the 670 up and running. So much easier than the painful frustration I had with...

Well, now I feel very stupid. I am no longer waiting for root. The work is still in progress, but I think I can get around this stage now. I did this case-sensitive nonsense with my first Chameleon Bootstick, too.

It is a 300GB SATA HDD. It is from my 2005 G5, so I doubt it is "advanced format," though it does have some sort of in-built jumper along the back. The install process works fine, but it always fails to boot back into the drive after the install. My BIOS settings match Tony's from the...

Would using a 1.5Gbps HDD also mess up the reboot after install?

I cannot get past 'still waiting for root device'. Mine comes up after a line which says: I get this with -x -v -f and both PCIRootUID=1 and =0 Any thoughts? Originally, I could never get past a grey screen on the auto reboot from install. After turning GraphicsEnabler to No I could only get...

So after I ran an idiot check, I still have no result. Everytime I try to boot, whether in Safe Mode or Single User Mode, or even trying PCIRoot=1 all I ever get is a reboot. If you don't have any idea what I can do to install MultiBeast, is there somewhere where I can find the help I need...

Things have hopefully developed a bit since then. I have an HIS 6970 as well and really want functionality. I installed Lion (10.7.2) from the Unibeast USBboot. I found both Netkas's 6970.pkg and another 6970 Full Package which is supposed to keep the DVD player running. I Installed Lion, but I...

So I have installed 10.7.2 over Unibeast, the installer program was able to display the image just fine. When I reboot, I got to the point where the GPU fan would turn on high and I'd get nothing but black. I went into my ChameleonBoot's com.apple.Boot.plist and changed Graphics Enabler to 'no'...
