Guide - Fusion Drive using tonymacx86 Tools & Chimera

[Manic Harmon1c]

I do not think that this is the problem, I did the same way as my other 2 hack by following the guide, I have tried 2 times and the same result

thank you even when

Sorry to hear that... Does it boot to it from your usb drive?

So for anyone with problems with this method, check the UUID that you are setting as the boot-uuid. It is not the same as the logical volume UUID you use when creating the fusion drive during this step:

Type diskutil coreStorage createVolume A0E3CC23-DB6F-4320-85F3-B51F83715937 jhfs+ "MyFusionDrv" 100% [enter] and the system returns the following

Make sure you use the new logical volume UUID for the volume MyFusionDrv.

Mmmm, just viewed this http://macperformanceguide.com/blog/2012/20121103_6-MacMini-HDD-vs-SSD.html on MacPerformanceGuide. Makes me NOT want a Fusiondrive in my Hack and stay with my dual drive (SSD-HDD) setup.

Has anyone gotten iCloud to work with this? Seems to be able to access App Store but not iCloud when booting into the Fusion drive. Works fine on single volume boot-up.

Yes. Works fine for me.

Trying to test similar to how ars technica did their test. I will let you know.

Great walkthrough. I noticed something different from my default install compared to yours at the org.chameleion.Boot.plist edit step: My org.chameleion.Boot.plist didn't have the "PCIRootUID=1" comment yours did, and when I first followed this guide I got KP at the Apple logo when booting.

After redoing EVERYTHING, I added the "PCIRootUID=1" after the inserted "rd=uuid boot-uuid=" string and now everything works great.
