iATKOS | X Clone

Many apps haven't been updated for 10.8 yet. This sometimes can mean that the app doesn't have necessary frameworks or whatever for the new environment. But in this case, Mountain Lion is so much like Lion that it could be something very very simple. If an app launches, then crashes immediately, this fix may work.   LET'S BEGIN: 1. Right click on the App in Applications folder 2. Double Click Contents 3. Open info.plist in TextEdit 4. Change the following:  Code:    <key>LSMinimumSystemVersionByArchitecture</key>    <dict>       <key>i386</key>       <string>10.5</string>       <key>ppc</key>       <string>10.5</string>       <key>x86_64</key>       <string>10.6</string>    </dict> to this: Code:    <key>LSMinimumSystem...

Be sure to back up any important data, and if possible clone your hard drive before applying the update. If you have any issues post-update, boot using UniBeast or rBoot. What we know about 10.7.3 so far... - 11.3.0 Darwin kernel - Improved AMD, Intel, and NVIDIA graphics drivers. - If you use customized or edited graphics kexts, it will be necessary to make the edits again using   the new drivers as a base. - The update will replace your AppleHDA.kext. - If you use ALC8xxHDA for onboard audio, you will have to reinstall AppleHDA Rollback using MultiBeast before rebooting. - If you use toleda's new AppleHDA for onboard audio, you will need to reinstall it before rebooting. - If you use VoodooHDA, you will not need to make any modifications. - If you use Sleepenabler.kext, remove before updating. source CLICK THE IMAGE TO FIND LINKS

Unix Flags that might work in OSX. See subcategories for details This list is mostly AMD specific boot options & for 64bit CPU's. Might also help with Intel CPU's. This list needs extensive testing & feedback but most of these flags do work in OSX. Once more info is gathered They will be categorized into the lists above Machine check Options Flags mce=off = Disable machine check. For compatibility with i386. Might help boot some AMD systems. nomce does the same same as mce=off mce=bootlog = Enable logging of machine checks left over from booting. Disabled by default on AMD because some BIOS leave bogus logs. If your BIOS does not do that it's a good idea to enable this log to make sure you log every machine check event that result in a reboot. On Intel systems it is enabled by default. mce=nobootlog = Disable boot machine check logging. mce= tolerancelevel (number from list below) 0: always panic on uncorrected errors, log corrected errors 1: panic...

kernel name "mach_kernel" This flag simply tells the system to boot from another kernel available in / (aka root). fsb=<mhz> = Most of the hacked kernels include the possibility at boot to chosen FSB frequency. These flags DO NOT work with any known vanilla kernel. Do testing with the below values to see what works for you. The default value is 200Mhz. If you want different value, you have a few possibilities. Ex: kernel name "netkasSS_kernel" Ex: fsb=800 or use one of these flags below: -g = For frequency's multiplied by 100 Mhz -y = For frequency's multiplied by 133 Mhz -z = For frequency's multiplied by 166 Mhz * You can easily add either the -y, -g, or -z options to your boot.plist file or use the fsb=<mhz> flag to give it an exact figure. I have not tested the fsb=<mhz> flag but the -y gave me the correct 800fsb (100mhz x 8) and boosted my performance to where it should be in OSX. This may not change the FSB in abo...

Note: Any flag can be added to your boot.plist but these are just the common ones. "Boot Graphics"=Yes = Yes or No. Use graphics mode or text mode when starting. Turns off vesa mode graphics at boot. "Quiet Boot"=Yes = Yes or No. Use quiet boot mode (no messages or prompt). Same as adding -v option. Timeout=3 = Any number 1-100. Number of seconds to pause at the boot prompt. debug=0x144 When added as a boot flag to your com.apple.Boot.plist will give you details about a kernel panic you have at any time when running OSX. I believe it is the same as debug=0x100, not sure. Kernel level flags: -l = The flag attempts to enable the L2 cache if not already enabled. Not sure if this works on hacks. If your having an L2 cache issue try this flag. cpus= Tells the kernel how many cores there are in place. Ex: cpus=1 OR cpus=2 idlehalt= Lets you set two values ether 1 or 0 stating true or false, if set to true then at idle time the cpu will halt ca...

-v = verbose mode. Basically tells you wants happening during boot up. -x = Safe mode. Basically boots your system with the bare minimum kexts. -s = Single user mode. Command line only mode. Allows you to run commands as root to fix system. -f = Tells the machine to reload all kext and dump the boot configuration cache, (kext cache found in: /System/Library/Extensions.mkext, you can delete it manually and the system will recreate it). "Graphics Mode"= Tells the system what resolution width, height, color depth & refresh rate to boot the OS with. Ex: "Graphics Mode"="1024x768x32" WIDTHxHEIGHTxDEPTH For VESA 3.0 graphics, you may append a refresh rate after an "@" character Ex: "Graphics Mode"="640x480x32@60" WIDTHxHEIGHTxDEPTH@REFRESHRATE rd= This parameter state what is the boot disk to use (instead of using the boot menu appearing before the prompt) you state the drive and partition in here: diskXsY where...

The true is this happen for a lot of things, but this guide will help a lot of users. 1. Boot from the rBoot CD 2. While hovering over the OSX partition, type in mach_kernel   rd=disk0s2 3. OSX started up fine, and then to avoid the need of keeping the rBoot disc in 24/7 to get into OSX, simply reinstall Chameleon. :)

You only need to add:  npci=0x2000 to Kernel Flags in /Extra/ org.chameleon.Boot.plist :)

For the Trackpad - I suggest you try the Kext from the following link: http://www.osx86.net/downloads.php?do=file&id=1448   Its from the GM of Lion, but for us - it actually worked, where as the 10.7.2 kext did not. Don't bother with the prefspane install if you simply just want the trackpad working. Replace the two kexts with the one from the zip , then use kext utility to repair permissions (inlcuded in L2. Use finder to goto Utilities/Tools. Thanks to mrotacon

Toleda has released two new patched AppleHDA audio drivers designed to optimize any motherboard with the Realtek ALC 889 or Realtek ALC 892 audio codecs. This is the best and most complete support that we've ever seen. The new one-kext solution supports most Mac OS X Lion analog and digital audio capabilities. It is designed to be an alternate or replacement for the combination of both AppleHDA Rollback and ALC8xxHDA. Proper DSDT edits are still required. One unique feature of the driver is the ability to alternate between 2 different layout-ids, enabling either most onboard devices, or HDMI audio with slightly limited onboard devices. For example, in order to get HD 3000 HDMI audio, you will need to change your layout id in your DSDT's HDEF section to 389. The default 889, used in the DSDT Database, will enable the optimal onboard analog and digital options. Download AppleHDA for Realtek ALC 889 Download AppleHDA for Realtek ALC 892 source

Still waiting for root device error occured because the appropriate Sata/Pata driver isn’t being loaded . This error usually appears before OSX86 DVD can boot and in some cases it occurs after installation. Actually this error means that the OS is set to boot from a drive and partition that does not exist or your bootloader is not able to discover the partition. Step 1 Jumper Settings : If your system contains IDE hard disk or DVD RW then you need to play with your jumper settings. If the following settings are not working for you try vice versa. if you have Sata Hard Disk and DVD RW skip to step 2. Your rom/writer must be set as Primary Master. Your hard-disk must be set as Primary Slave . Step 2 Tweaking the BIOS : If you satisfies step 1 then time is to play with BIOS settings. Open your BIOS settings by pressing DEL or F2 key continuosly as you starts your PC. Once the BIOS screen appears try to find and change following options if they are available. ATA/IDE Mode : Native Conf...

Simple Troubleshooting guide: At times after installation, your system may not work properly as in - it may restart, not boot at all or hang at a certain point. This is quite normal and there are many ways for it to be fixed. It varies from one case to another case. However this basic troubleshooting guide would help you to fix most of the common problems. - If you're facing hangs, freezes or kernel panics (which is present as a shutdown symbol on the screen just after boot) type in "-v" (without quotes) in the boot command of the bootloader. This would give you verbose output which is useful for the solution. - "Waiting for root device" - It means that OS X doesn't see your hard disk or boot device. You can face with this during dvd boot or after system install during hdd boot. Change your SATA mode from IDE/RAID to ACHI by your BIOS setup and also you need to check other BIOS settings that might be the usual problem, read the "mickey mouse guide"...

You should definitely read through it, but here’s the gist for movies that contain AC3 audio files: Install a copy of the free Perian QuickTime plug-in on your Mac. String an optical cable between your Mac and a compatible receiver. Launch Audio Midi Setup (found in the Utilities folder) and in the audio output area select Digital Out from the Source pop-up menu and 48000.0Hz and 2ch–16-bit in the Format area. Launch the Terminal app and enter  defaults write com.cod3r.a52codec attemptPassthrough 1  Press Return. If iTunes is running, quit and relaunch it. Locate the movie you want to view, and play it with iTunes’ Volume slider set to its highest level. Also be sure that the equalizer is off. Place your cursor over the movie so that the on-screen controls appear, click on the small bubble icon, and choose the surround sound track. With a little luck, iTunes should now play the movie with surround-sound audio. source:

iATKOS L2 has no native support for the GT 240, but here we share with you an easy solution: For common booting issue, try: 1. FIRST: -v arch=i386 npci=0x2000 PCIRoot=Yes DSDT=No 2. THEN: Download from TonyMacx86 the amazing tool called MultiBeast 4.2 3. FINALLY: If you could, donate a cup of coffe to UPHUCK and/or TonyMac Enjoy ;)

The BIOS settings for every motherboard looks similar but never exactly the same. For that reason we can't tell you, command-by-command, where to go to find and make certain adjustments. Here are the settings you will need to adjust (or at least verify) in your BIOS to make your hardware hackintosh-friendly: Disable Quick Boot . You may have to look around for this, but we've often found this in a section titled Advanced BIOS Settings. Just look for a Quick Boot or Fast Boot option and ensure it is set to disabled. Configure SATA as AHCI . By default, your motherboard will configure SATA as IDE and you'll need to change this to AHCI. In some cases you'll be asked if you want to do this when you boot up for the first time. If so, choose yes. If not, go into your BIOS and look for this setting as you'll need to make the change for everything to work smoothly. Change the Boot Device Order . Your BIOS will default to a specific boot order, which means it'll look for...

1- Shut down your computer 2- Power off keyboard & mouse 3- Power on computer 4- Allow computer to come up and say there is no keyboard & mouse connected. 5- Power ON the keyboard at the same time. 6- Above step will put it into pairing mode. re-pair it when prompted, and yes hit the enter key. 7- Then do the same for the mouse. Enjoy :)
