Hi Everyone, I've attempted to search and scour this site and the web for a solution, but I am hitting a road block at this point trying to install Yosemite on my system.
Hardware Details:
Dell Precision Workstation T7600 -- BIOS Revision A07
Dual Xeon CPU 3.1GHz (8 cores, totalling 16cores with both processors)
PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller: PERC H710P Adapter
NVidia Titan GTX Black
Overall it's a pretty powerful system, have Windows and Ubuntu working fine on it right now, although I removed those drives for the Yosemite install purposes. I also own a mac laptop and a mac pro, although I got this Dell a while ago when they decided to abandon their mac pro line of hardware with that tube/bin thing.
I've disabled C-states in the bios, and disabled VT-d. The systems begins to boot, if I use certain combination of the following flags (just using the -v to see errors on screen):
-v npci=0x3000 PCIRootUID=0 GraphicsEnabler=No
But ultimately it gets stuck at:
"System uptime in nanoseconds: 6486076184"
I did notice a few errors as it booted up, although it continued:
DST not found (this was at the start of the bootup, but it didn't seem to cause a kernel panic)
and
panic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffff8000429064): "mp_cpus_call_wait() timeout, cpus: 0xffffffff00000000"@/SourceCache/xnu/xnu-2702.1.97/osfmk/i386/mp.c:1241
Debugger called: <panic>
Backtrace (CPU 0), Frame: Return Addresss
A bunch of Hex code
So, I am not sure if I should be trying other boot flags, or changing other things in the BIOS, etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
