Hi Guys,
Brand new to the scene, but have been at it for two days straight now. I've got my unibeast stick working. to boot the stick I need to use -x, but the install works, and using the stick I can get into osx.
I've got a Gigabyte H67N-USB3-B3 with F7 BIOS, i3 2105, 8gb 1333mhz ddr3, no gpu(HD3000). So I used the DSDT from the second post during multibeast.
Here are the options I selected:
+UserDSDT Install w/ DSDT-GA-H67N-USB3-B3-F7.aml (place aml on desktop)
+System Utilities
-Drivers & Bootloaders
-Kexts & Enablers
-Disk
+3rdParty SATA
-Network
+Realtek Gigabit Ethernet 2.0.6 for 10.7
+Bootloaders
-Customization
-Boot Options
+Generate CPU States
+ Use KernelCache
-System Definitions
+Mac mini
The tricky part is, I built my unibeast stick with 10.7.0, and i'm having issues upgrading to 10.7.3.
I ran Multibeast without audio, and using the DSDT from page 2. it seems to let me in as long as i use -f. Not sure what the deal is with that.
Then I updated to 10.7.3, and when it told me to restart, I said not now. Then I did Multibeast again(without audio) and the AppleHDA.kext install using KextBeast. Those completed successfully, so I restarted. When I restarted, it told me that it was 'installing' and it took awhile. After this I was again left in a no boot situation. So I time machined again... Can anyone shed some light on how to correctly upgrade from 10.7.0 to 10.7.3?
Thanks again!
Edit:
After googling a lot, I found out that neither chameleon or chimera(naturally) support my 2048x1152 resolution monitors...
I hooked up the machine to my tv, and HDMI video works(both 10.7.0 and 10.7.3). I just can't boot after patching 10.7.3.
I get the weird error that seems impossible to diagnose.
I've shortened it a bit for what i think its the important stuff:
boot-uuid from /chosen: <longstring>
waiting on boot-uuid-media
Still waiting for root device
It'll repeat the "still waiting on root device part" every few minutes indefinitely. I've tried: -x -v -f -F GraphicsEnabler=No arch="i386" to no avail.
Unibeast will load as expected.
I tried switching my sata plugs around since that was a suggestion in another thread and no help there either.
Ugh. Totally stuck!
Edit:
SUCCESS!!!
Final questions:
I did a non DSDT install with Multibeast and it works! It seems the H67N-USB3-B3-F7-HDMI DSDT doesn't work for me? Do my bios settings have to be *EXACTLY* what the guide says? Or can I set my memory speed explicitly(SPD doesn't seem to be doing it). Also, can I enable things like quickboot and disable full screen logo without it affecting the DSDT layout?
