Asus Zenbook UX303UB SSDT patching help

[JomanJi]

So I followed http://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-asus-zenbook-ux303la-broadwell-edition.172279/ to install El Capitan on my Zenbook UX303UB. The only difference between our laptops are that his (or her) laptop is broadwell based while mine is a skylake based.

He noted that SSDT-5 and SSDT-8 are necessary, because they contain information about the SATA controller.

I applied all the patches to all the files necessary, however, got this error when trying to compile SSDT-8:

syntax error, unexpected PARSEOP_NAME, expecting ',' or '}'

I have also tried using the default extracted SSDT-8.aml file, but that resulted in OS X being unable to locate the drive, and giving the

Still waiting for root device

error

Post all your native aml files.

Post all your native aml files.

I have posted them now

There's nothing to patch in SSDT8.aml... Simply add the native .aml file.
Your "Still waiting for root device" issue is irrelevant.

 

[JomanJi]

It is relevant, because when I boot without the SSDTs, the system works normally

You need correctly patched ACPI... SSDT8 has nothing to be patched. It is a CPU SSDT which you can even exclude.

Follow RehabMan's guide here: [Guide] Patching LAPTOP DSDT/SSDTs
You might want to try the "hotpatching" way instead, note that it requires skills.

Note: The guide linked in post #1 appears not to be maintained...
