Hi all,
Second time building a hackintosh but still am a noob at this so please please bear with me.
First, my configuration:
CPU: Intel 4820K (VT-d and UEFI boot both disabled for now)
SSD: Samsung 840 evo
Motherboard: Gigabyte X79-UP4 rev 1.1 (Bios f5)
Vid Card: Radeon 270 (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/con...IjQ08rilb0CFe87MgodWVYAmQ&Q=&is=REG&A=details)
So I know this is stuck at something to do with Graphics. When I first tried it, it was stuck at logo, verbose mode was stuck at PCI Configuration Begin. I can get past this with:
GraphicsEnabler=No -x -v PCIRootUid=0 npci=0x3000
I am not sure what each of these do, but I have to have PCIRootUID at 0, GraphicsEnabler=No, but npci can be both 0x2000 and 0x3000 to get past PCI Configuration Begin.
However, now with every setting I try, I am stuck at "DSMOS has arrived." This still seems like a driver issue. What was odd was that if I left the PC for over 30 mins (maybe an hour, can't remember), I was able to get to a grey screen with my mouse. But it would be stuck there indefinitely. And, moving the mouse there was extremely laggy (framebuffer issue?).
I tried removing all System/Library/Extensions/AMD* from by USB and then reboot with the addition of the -f parameter, but still no luck. It's still stuck at DSMOS has arrived.
What can I do to fix this issue? Any help appreciated.
Also, just out of curiosity, what do the PCIRootUid and npci parameters do? Some folks have reported an Asus radeon 270 working OOB, so not sure why mine doesn't work. It seems there are drivers on this site which I can download for the 270, but I have to do that through MultiBeast which I cannot do until I have the OS installed in the first place.
