Haswell-E + X99 Motherboard Temporary Guide - OS X 10.10

[jkervin]

I'm getting this error when trying to boot from USB Unibeast drive using -v -f -x and npci=0x2000 arguments: (Motherboard is an Asrock X99 WS.) panic(cpu 8 caller 0xffffff8000...): Kernel trap at 0xffffff...., type 14=page fault, registers: CRO:
I have a 6 core CPU so I'm not sure what the cpu 8 caller error is...

Help?

jkervin did you try using cpus=1 and using the right VoodooTSCSync for your CPU?

My question: Does VoodooTSCSync theoretically also support 10 / 12 / 14-core CPU's? I'm looking into buying a 12-core, and have good experiences with 6 / 8-core Haswell-E.

Someone let me know, please

Dumb question(NOOOOB). I'm just finished building my Hack.

BE QUIET everything else. BTW. Cant recommened their stuff enough. Whisper quiet!

OK. This computer is for audio work. When a stable El Captain is available can I just update and keep all my files etc? I have a very specific setup.

Can I make a backup drive where if something funks up I can just go to the backup?

I was given a Mavericks old Macbook(white). Will this work to create the Clover drive?

Thanks VERY much for any help. This new world is scary

I did try that, but only a couple of times. Mostly I'm using boot arguments npc=0x2000 -f and -v. My motherboard is an Asrock X99 WS and my processor is an Intel 6 Core Xenon. A buddy of mine found a thread here that has some other options that I'm going to try. I'll report back on any progress that I make.

Thanks

Thanks, I'm going to give this a shot over the next couple of days. I originally planned to install Yosemite, as I'm using this for music production and some of the software I use isn't compatible with El Capitan yet, but hopefully it won't be long until it is.

Thanks

Anyone experience slow shutdown/restart time? Any tips? Thanks

I must bid adieu. My system is up on 10.11.1 and I have deleted my backup copy of 10.10.5. Hope to see more of you in El Capitan!
