Judging by the 717 posts (so far) here, I'm sure I'm not the only one in this situation, but I'm done. I cannot upgrade my hack any further. I keep getting this on verbose boot, which is prevalent all over the site:
kxld[com.apple.driver.AppleRTC]: The Mach-O file is malformed: Invalid magic number: 0xbebafeca.
Can't load kext com.apple.driver.AppleRTC - link failed
etc.
I've searched this forum for reasons / solutions until my fingers turned blue. I've tried every possible solution I could find. Delete LegacyAppleRTC.kext. Use LegacyAppleRTC.kext and delete AppleRTC.kext. Patch AppleRTC.kext. Delete FakeSMC.kext. I can't deal with it anymore. I can't wait until I can afford to buy a real Mac again. I only did this hack because my employer provided PC with Windows 7 made me wretch. So I figured I'd try hacking it. It worked pretty good up until 10.8.2.
I've had to roll back using my USB Stick and I've got some kind of mixed up mess that has features of 10.8.1 and maybe 10.8.2. Fortunately, I had a cloned functioning SuperDuper backup (with the mixed up system on it) that I was able to restore. The Hackintosh was like a nice romance. Great while it lasted, but leaving you bitter and disappointed when it's over. If I was retired and had unlimited time, I'm sure I could eventually figure this out. But, when you've got to work for a living using a functioning machine, this is just too much of a time sink.
If anyone cares, the system is a off the shelf (I know, it's not a recommended build) Dell Optiplex 790 3.09Ghz Core i5 with 8GB and a, a GEforce 8400GS video board, SATA WD250 drive. I used Multibeast 5.2.1 post install (of 8.3) with the EasyBeast option. Good-bye tonymacx86.com. Thanks for the memories.
