HP EliteBook 8570p HD4000 IGP Blank screen

[egrath]

Hi,

anyone had success with installing 10.9 on a HP EliteBook 8570p (Modell with HD4000 only). Tried a huge amount of different boot parameters without any success - the screen goes blank after booting (-v) at the moment the installer should come up.

Tried:
- GraphicsEnabler=No IGPEnabler=Yes IGPlatformID=<MANY DIFFERENT>

Any hints?

Thanks,
Egon

try with

"IGPEnabler=Yes IGPlatformID=01660003" if u have low resolution screen

or

"IGPEnabler=Yes IGPlatformID=01660004" if u have high resolution screen

Hello,

"IGPEnabler=Yes IGPlatformID=01660004" without anything else did the trick.

If you have a high-resolution screen (1600x900 or greater), then, yes, those would be the correct flags...

Although IGPEnabler=Yes is not needed with the Unibeast USB, as it is default in its org.chameleon.Boot.plist.
