Hackintosh will only boot in safe mode

[deandrew50]

Hi,

I have managed to install Mavericks on my system and apply my multibeast settings but after reboot i get a hang at the apple screen and can only boot in safe mode

Here are my specs

Mavericks OSX / Windows 7
Intel Core i7 3770S @3.10GHz Ivy Bridge
ASUS P8H61-M motherboard
1023MB NVIDA Geforce GT 620
16GB DDR3 Ram



I have search the forum and tried almost every boot flag i think may work but seem to be getting nowhere fast.

Cheers
Dean

What motherboard is in your system? How are your drives configured? How much memory is installed?

Good modding,

I used a very basic set of Multibeast settings:

Quick start option> DSDT FREE
Drivers>Audio>ALC887/888b Current V100302
Drivers>Disk>3rd party SATA
Drivers>Graphics>NO OPTION SELECTED HERE
Drivers>Misc>USB 3.0 - Universal
Drivers>Network>Realtek>RealtekRT8111 v 1.2.0
Drivers>System>NO OPTION SELECTED HERE
Boot Loaders>Chimera v3.0.1
Customize>Instant Menu
Customize>1080p Display Mode

Once you have built the Multibeast settings (DON'T restart yet)

Download Chameleon Wizard Here ttp://wizards.osxla...n/download.html

Find your Chameleon.Boot.plist in extra folder on you hard disk "right click" open with choose other set drop down to all applications choose Chameleon Wizard.

You will now see a number of boot flags you can apply to you Boot.plist.

I only added two:

• Right hand column tick the check box for - Graphics Enabler
• In the Kernel Flags tick the check box on - dart=0

Click Save and restart you machine.

You should now be able to boot straight in to mac without safe mode flag.

Regards
Dean

Hey Dean

Thanks for this! I did as you recommended and at first was getting a black screen of death - even though the OS seemed to be booting.

I changed the connection to the desktop from HDMI to DVI-D IN and BAM - Solved.

Thanks for the help!
