Hi RehabMan,
done as requested...for some weird reason I still donno how to install Snow Leopard on my x230, so it didn't help ;-) haha, just kidding.
Ok, so here is what I did so far:
1.) Downloaded iBoot Ivy Bridge Version from the Downloads Section and burned to CD
2.) Bootet into iBoot, swapped iBoot cd with Snow Leopard install DVD
3.) F5 to refresh the selection of bootable devices until Mac OS Install DVD shows up
4.) Entered boot opion "GraphicsEnabler=No" as boot option (all other options or no options entered always lead to a Kernel panic)
5.) Installed Mac OSx (with external USB Mouse an Keyboard, since internal keyboard and mouse obviously didn't work)
(Setings for Installation where: GUID Partition Layout, 2 Partitions while basically the second partions was left blank for later subpartitioning for Windows 7 and some share drive for both systems, while first partion i Mac OS Extended (journaled) Format. Chosse German language in installer, deslected all installation packages possible to speed up installation since I already performed quite some installs before and didn't want to wait for another 40 minutes) after installation completed, reboot laptop
6.) during reboot swap medium again to have iboot cd in drive
7.) in iboot enter "GraphicsEnabler=No" again (failed without this option again)
8.) Boot into Mac OS X snow leopard
9.) Install the Combo Upgrade for Snow Leopard
10.) Run multibeast with the options to install the boot loader (Chimera) and the custom DSTS that was posted by freeman (nothing else)
11.) reboot first time without CD and the bootloader shows up, boots into Mac OS X partition but then the laptop instantly restart. I see a quick error message "Header real size 200 Incorrect image signature." before reboot, but thats it.
I tried several boot options, without cache and in verbose mode etc. But none of them worked. Also using boot options "-x" or "GraphicsEnabler=No" didn't do the trick.
Thats it, from here on I am lost and could need some help. Isn't just choosing the custom DSTS from Freeman enough of a selection do I need to install other packages too? Maybe I got the concept wrong
I googled the "Header real size 200 Incorrect image signature." Problem, and it seems to be related to some hibernation settings, so I might have missed installing something there.
Anyone an idea about what I am missing or doing wrong?
Thanks a lot for your feedback
Paul
