If there's any data on that 2 TB OSX drive you want first thing you need to do is stop and research very carefully before taking any action. Just formatting it will erase all data. Either back it up or be prepared to lose the data. Having said that I think you can shrink the existing OSX...

You didn't say so I'll ask. Did you install the Logitech driver on OSX? If not I'd try that first.

Unibeast is a tool for creating a bootable Lion install USB key. Be more specific and tell us exactly what you're doing and what the Unibeast program is doing when it hangs up and we may be able to help you.

Yes, you should be able to install Lion with 16 GB of RAM installed. I have done so a number of times. In fact, my first hackintosh was in the day of 10.6.2 and I installed that version of Snow Leopard with 16 GB installed using iBoot and a retail Snow Leopard DVD. From what I've read the...

1) Delete the file /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist 2) Restart OSX

Restart the computer and at the chimera boot screen press a key to bring up the text entry window and enter DSDT=null as a boot parameter. That will cause chimera to search for a DSDT named null. It will not find it and at that point will attempt to boot without a DSDT. If the system then boots...

Unibeast reports an excessive amount of time. I would try to be patient and let it try to finish. Mine took about 20 minutes and at one point said 9 hours and x minutes.

Did you get that figured out yet? I had the same problem and resolved it by inserting the USB stick into a working Hackintosh running OSX Lion 10.7.3, right clicking on the disk icon that popped up on the desktop and selecting Get Info. Then unchecking the ignore permissions option and also...

Check the apple.com.Boot.plist for the following entry(or a lack there of) <key>Timeout</key> <string>2</string> If it exist the 2 may be a 20. Change it to 2. If it doesn't exist add it. The 2 seconds is just enough of a delay to allow you to press any key if you need to enter boot...

Re: Chimera boot error I have seen a number of posts recently where others, including myself, have experienced that issue. I was able to get mine to boot from hard drive by removing that drive from the computer and attaching it via USB/eSata dock to another computer running OSX. I then...

I can confirm it. After seeing that post I removed my system drive and connected it to Hackintosh #1 via eSata dock & USB and installed chameleon. Popped the hard drive back into the Customac #2 and it does boot now from HD. Still getting KP's part of the time when booting but once it boots it...

I have a new CustoMac #4 I just built last Friday, 08/26/11. It has the recommended Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD5-B3 motherboard and a Seagate Barracuda ST500DM002 500GB 7200 RPM hard drive that I am experiencing the same thing with. No matter which version of chameleon I install I get the Boot:0 error...

Run Multibeast. Install IOAHCBlockStorageInjector (From Disk section) & System Utilities. Reboot. That should fix it.

Yes that is the one I have except mine has "wm" added to the model number. Must be something to do with Walmart where i purchased mine. Sorry I took so long to respond.

I agree with this 100%. I purchased a Z68X-UD5-B3 because of his recommendation and I am very unhappy with it. Not only can I not get USB3 to work no matter what I try I cannot get it to boot directly from hard drive. I always get the Boot0 error. If I boot using the USB install key and then...

I'm using a Bluetooth 2.1 USB Micro Adapter made by IOGEAR that I purchased at Walmart. It is very small and works great with the Apple Magic Mouse, Trackpad, and other Bluetooth devices. Update - Added Note: This Bluetooth adapter is known for preventing a hackintosh from going to sleep. I...
