After some poking around the interwebs I found that the MSI P55-GD85 is apparently an amped up version of the MSI P55-GD65, same audio (Realtek ALC889) same ethernet (Realtek 8111DL) with the addition of an extra 8 PCI-E lanes and USB 3 and SATA III. I searched this site and found a few people...
Hello,
Newegg is having a sale on the MSI P55-GD85 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 30261-L09C And I need to change my mobo as it's been finicky the last couple of weeks. I'm looking for SataIII and usb 3 too. I was wondering if anyone has this board, or the vanilla version GD80? And...
Thank you so much for your response! :) I wont be getting the ssd and mobo for a month or two but I'll definitely post about performance, maybe there will be some sataIII ssd's by then. Come on intel 25nm nand! And thanks for the link too :)
I am considering adding a ssd and card reader to the system from my sig. I am also probably going to upgrade to a sata 6Gb/s and usb mobo during the summer. Currently I'm using all of the blue sata ports on my mobo. I have a few questions:
1.) Can I plug my od, front ports, or a card reader (if...
Hmm, well my set up is the same but it still wouldn't work. So I installed ubuntu onto the osx drive after osx partition-a primary one and with mount point / and grub installed to the ubuntu partition. Linux shows up in chameleon now! :) When I boot into linux from chameleon it takes me to grub...
This might be a stupid question, but...When you installed ubuntu to sdb5 did you make the mount point / or /boot. Because I just installed ubuntu to my sdb7 with mount point / and chameleon doesn't see ubuntu. I installed 10.04 btw, though I've installed mint to that partition before and in the...
Yep, I updated the BIOS to f8. Should I have copied the kexts into sys/library/extensions? I deleted snow leopard/extra and replaced it with tonymac ud2/tonymacx86-GAP55M-UD2-EFI/Extra
So I deleted my Extra Folder and replaced it with yours and updated to Asere rc4 with Multibeast. However, now when I look in sys pref-sound it says I don't have any output devices. Also, I don't have anything in library-extension.
Do you know any other programs which can mount ext 4? I tried...
Hello :)
I've been trying to install linux on my hac for some time now. I asked here about installing linux to my w7 drive and was able to install the linux using that methodhttp://www.tonymacx86.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=450&p=3531#p3531 but EFI would not see it when i boot up :crazy: I gave up...
When I check the option and click apply the utility says modifying partition for a minute or two then stops (finishes maybe?) and moves the viewer to the mbr but when I click on the mint partition the box isnt check. The box is checked on the mbr. I can boot fine though, just no mint option in...
Sorry for the double post, but...When I boot into live-usb mint and go into the disk utility I see that there is an option to make the mint partition bootable. Should I just check that box? The only reason I ask is I dont know what will happen when I check that box.
So I ended up creating three partitions out of the 51gb one: a 22.9 one, a second 22.9 one, and a 5gb swap partition. I installed linux mint to the first 22.9gb partition and installed the bootloader to that partition. The mint partition however does not show up in pc-efi when I startup. That...
Hello everyone,
I want to install linux on my hack for a triple boot comp. I have two hdds. the first one is solely OSX. the second one has a 100gb W7 partition install, a 51gb unformatted partition (where I might put the linux), and a 445gb data partition.
I'd like to install Linux mint or...
