IOAHCIBlockStorageInjector... not functional?

[marbleduck]

This seems kinda weird to me. The kext is installed yet drives are still shown as external.

mine did the same, sometime reinstalling the kext, rebooting or shutting down corrected it but it seemed random. I also pop in and out of by bios & occasionally boot to another drive that has Snow Leopard & Lion installed

I got sick of trying to figure it out and used dsdt auto patcher and IOAHCIBlockStorageInjector is no longer required



auto patcher: http://olarila.com/blog/


patch attached..

If you decide not to go the DSDT route, either of the two files in the following post will work. Use one or the other, not both.

I'm using a DSDT, though... will what you described not work?

 

[rlf156]

I'm sure they will work with a DSDT. I just meant that you had an alternative to what Thade suggested. Take the path that appeals to you.

the hardest part with patching the dsdt with the autopatcher is the 30 seconds it takes to register on the site to download the software.... it may even be available elsewhere.

After that, just point the utility to the .txt file included in this thread and the utility will patch your dsdt. After I patched mine I tested it on SL, Lion and ML and everything seems to be working great

personally, I prefer this method over relying on extensions, etc. This patch also correct the dvd player issue for me...
