Multibeast and npci=0x3000

[devil6]

I successfully load mavericks when I use

GraphicsEnabler=Yes npci=0x3000

I can not seem to add

npci=0x3000 in Multi Beast.


Please help

u may have to edit(in extra) org.chameleon.boot.plist
and add
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string>npci=0x3000</string>
save then reboot...

I tried this but it does not work. If I enter npci=0x3000 manually its ok but if I add it to my boot.plist in Extra folder if crashes. Here is my current boot:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>EthernetBuiltIn</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>IGPEnabler</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>Kernel</key>
<string>mach_kernel</string>
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string> PCIRootUID=1</string>
<key>Legacy Logo</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>Timeout</key>
<string>2</string>
<key>GenerateCStates</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>GeneratePStates</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>UseKernelCache</key>
<string>Yes</string>
</dict>
</plist>

I tried entering a second set so there are 2 Kernel Flags like this:
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string> PCIRootUID=1</string>
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string> npci=0x3000</string>
But it did not work!

Thanks in advance... rafacq

The boot flag npci=0x3000 will usually lead to no sound no mater what you do or try if it were me I'd try npci=0x2000 which does allow for sound I always try my best to avoid the 3000 and roll with 2000 something about the 3000 disables sound

Thanks for the tip. I went ahead and changed my boot.plist to 2000 but that did not bring on the HDMI audio. It seems either npci=0x2000 or npci=0x3000 works fine on my GA-X79-UD3 MB. I have analog audio with either setting so I think I will restore my setting to npci=0x3000.

Again thanks for your note.
