Asus P8Z68 Deluxe Snow Leopard and Lion Guide (Non-Pro ;))

Mine shuts down in about 5 seconds but takes 45 seconds to boot.
Is this normal?

Try -v in chimera/chameleon and check where exactly it wait so long.

Maybe he forgot to disable the LucidLogix Virtu into the bios.

I have the P8Z68 Deluxe board and have went over this guide. After I take out the iBoot disk and try to put in SL it will try to load up the install but it fails. I have tried the 2 following ways; PCIRootUID=1, it will get past the Apple logo with a darker gray screen and the spinning color wheel then it will just turn my computer off; and PCIRootUID=0, it will just stay on the first Apple logo then the apple gray screen of death or whatever it is called lol. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried

PCIRootUID=1 GraphicsEnabler=Yes

To be honest I'm not sure that will work as i think that kp'ed my machine when trying to install SL, but works after.

Are you sure your graphics card is supported? I'm not sure it is.

I have tried PCIRootUID=1 and it did not work. I will try GraphicsEnabler=yes.

 

[tom.humphrey]

I mean using both of them together.

If that fails can you type -v in, and post the output (take a picture of the screen or something similar)

I don't know if anyone is experiencing similar but am finding that my hack is not shutting down, correctly if at all. Just hangs. not sure why.

sorry guys, I'm still a newbie.
S/L/E is System/Library/Extensions/ but what is S/L/K?
Does it matter where I put Kext Wizard to execute?

Thanks

I tried PCIRootUID=1 GraphicsEnabler=Yes and this is what I got:
