GA-Z68XP-UD3 UEFI U1g - Radeon 6870 - NO DSDT
Did a fresh install tonight of mountain lion. It was working alright before with BIOS10 and DSDT but I wanted to update the bios and just start fresh.
My install went as follows:
Download Mtn Lion, install Unibeast on thumb drive.
Upgraded BIOS to UEFI U1g, set up using Tonymacx86 guide
Put Unibeast USB in my Windows laptop and copied over ATI6000Controller.kext then uploaded to my dropbox
Removed ATI6000Controller.kext from installation USB
Disconnected Video card power and plugged my monitor into the onboard HDMI
Booted up Unibeast USB and booted into installation with flags: -v -x GraphicsEnabler=No
Formatted my hard drive, installed OSX using usual Unibeast guide
Booted into OSX from Unibeast USB, same flags as before: -v -x GraphicsEnabler=No
Restored my users, applications and network settings from time machine backup
Pulled ATI6000Controller.kext from my dropbox and reinstalled it using KextBeast
Ran Multibeast with the following options
> UserDSDT/DSDT Free Installation
> Audio - ALC889 - without DSDT
> Network - Lnx2Mac's RealtekRTL81.xx Ethernet
> Misc - USB 3.0 3rd Party
Before restarting ran fix permissions from Disk Utility
Shut down computer and reconnected power to Video card and plugged both monitors back in
Booted into OSX....everything works perfectly
Full Specs:
GA-Z68XP-UD3 UEFI U1g
XFX Radeon HD-6870 - Dual monitors 1HDMI, 1DVI
Core i5-2400 sandybridge
16GB G.SKILL Sniper RAM
Applewifi Card w/PCI Adapter
60GB SSD internal drive, x2 500GB internal HDs, x1 1TB usb3.0 external drive
Dual booting windows 7
Everything works including sound, network, usb 3.0 and sleep
Only small issue I'm having is my external hard drive being disconnected at wake up after sleep, but I've had that problem since day 1 with lion also
