So this is where I got.... Booting without ig-platform-id resulted in a successful boot to both installer and OS. But booting with the correct ig-platform-id gets me on that same framebuffer kernel panic. I get that error because DVMT is 32mb. Soooooo what now? I tried booting with rehabman's...

Where in the config file do I put this?

Nah man, this laptop was a gift from my dad and it cost like 500 euros. So I'm not gonna risk it.... The link you linked was talking about SOLDERING something I would never do myself on such an expensive electronic. If there isn't a safer and easier way I'll just say bye to OSX all together (for...

OK, final words. Thanks to the people at www.Bios-mods.com I now know that my bios is rewrite protected and that hidden settings cannot be changed without an SPI Programmer.:thumbdown That was the limit for me, this really sucks I was really hoping on hacking this laptop... I'll just buy an...

OK, so I did some research again and found out somebody was facing the same issue. His way of solving the problem was changing the DVMT Prealloc. But when I try to do follow the tutorial on extracting the bios file and changing the values I get stuck on step 1! Because I can't seem to find the...

Bump

Thank you! I got way further then before. The system (booting with -v) actually shows something else then plus symbols. But it got stuck at something and now it says "Kernel Extensions in backtrace: com.apple.driver.AppleIntelBDWGraphicsFramebuffer" I posted a "screenshot" of the kernel panic...

Hello, so I bought a new laptop and I am trying to install OSX on it. I picked El Capitan because I have more experience with it. I created a USB using Unibeast and customized the EFI folder with clover configurator. I'm using macbookair7.2 as my system definition (I linked my EFI folder) But...

But it works in El Capitan...... But I'll stick to El Capitan then :crazy:

24H Bump

So I have this El Capitan USB lying around for when I decide to jump from Windows to OSX every now and then. But now with Sierra I am facing a couple problems. I have a Celeron G1840. I Can't reach the installer because it either gives me a nanoseconds error or a panic 0 thread error. Making...

Ok thanks. I may pickup an HP Probook then:thumbup:

I know. One question why is the HP probook series so "hackable". Is it just because the parts are coincidentaly compatible with osx or was there colaboration with apple?

Again. I have nothing against old technology, but the point of a laptop is to be somehow portable. When your laptop can't power on without a power brick and cable I say it's time for an upgrade. How can you possibly think it would be a good idea to upgrade my laptop you have to see this piece of...

Again, replacing a screen on a 7 year old laptop isn't smart. It's a bulky broken piece of **** and needs to be replaced. I stand by my decision of saving up for my next hackbook project

Never mind guys, I just thought of it. I don't see it being a good idea upgrading and breathing new life into an almost 7 year old laptop. It was my dad's old business laptop and he bought a new one 3 years ago. My personal laptop got busted by water damage and this was a temporary...

I'll pick up a PC3 1.5v dual channel 8Gb kit in a week or so. Once again I'll keep you updated.

So if Ram IS the problem, I could buy ram and experience no problems with HD3000 right?

I plugged in my other ram stick anyway, made ACPI for it... booted it!! And nothing changed:banghead: I could buy new ram but if I'm not 100% sure it will work it would be a huge waste of money. So is this it, after our long battle of fighting HD3000? Just giving up and buying a new laptop...

And then make a new DSDT right? Should I BUY new ram or just use the stick I have lying around...I am planning on buying an xiaomi notebook air anyway.
