Doesn't restart on command is properly a screwed up AppleHDA.kext

Reverting the hacking process by running Kalyway install might help, but i just couldn't patch the on-board sound to work. Sigma Tel STAC9227 0x83847618, any clue?

Pop in the installer disk you downloaded and burn into iso, boot with the DVD. If it able to boot through, after selecting language, access the menu on top and select Disk Utility and format that IDE HD into HFS+ Journaled. when you are done quit the Disk Utility, return and proceed with the installer.

I still have issue with one of my stac9227 on-board sound module? Do you all think it's appropriate if i head over to the unix room and ask whoever with a same soundcard to output me a codex dump for patching??

I got stuck at that reso too. Are you on Nvidia? But i don't read anyone talk about any better resolution than that.

Someone asked me to try nvkush, instead of the nvinject.

Look, dood.

There is no start menu or the need of one in Mac.

Spotlight can quick launch any apps anywhere in your mounted volume, shortcut or alias files simply a bit irrelevant now.

If you still prefer the old way of compiling shortcuts and manage it for fun or just for eye-candy effect, drag them into the dock, if it gets a bit crowded there, try creating stacks within the dock.

* I thought you were having missing menu contents, that's funny.

white_menus_fixe_HD2600_pro
white_menus_fixe_HD3850_3870x2
ATI_Radeon_HD_2600_Pro_AGP (this one no need for natit and white menufix)
ATI_Radeon_HD_2600_XT_AGP (this one no need for natit and white menufix)

Look about in the installation option for the above items in the list.

@myee
Coz you are running into one of these white menu issue, it only happened to a few of the graphic chips.

Or you can go irc.osx86.hu and look for a proper fix.

Added on August 4, 2008, 12:35 pm-v is verbose mode, where the load sequence is rendered on screen so you can diagnose the hang.
-s is single user mode
-x i think is safe mode

After pressing F8, the Darwin screen will prompt something like Boot_
That's where you key in the boot keystroke and press return.

If it still doesn't load with all these, try change another kernel to boot.

on the prompt Boot: _ (yes, type it here and return)
you can type the kernal name to boot with,
sleepkernel
speedstepkernel
nforcekernel
modbinkernel
vanillakernel
kabylkernel

according to kalyway, all kernel is installed but only one is load.

If your system was working fine before, try get in with -x (as in x) and try remove the new kext you have just installed most recently.

-v will let you see the hang is occur during which kext is loading, looking for the looping error line.

After installation on a partition, it'll screw up your partition map.
Boot with the Kalyway Disc again and F8, boot with

when you reach the ssh3.2 prompt or something like that, you have to reactivate the flag for both the partition for Vista and Mac,


disk0 is assuming the disk you are fixing is the primary disk (disk1, disk2 and so on)
flag 2 is the partition number, assuming flag 2 is the second partition you installed your mac.

After reboot, still with CD, do fdisk again for your window partition.
Which is same as the above except this time do if vista is on the first partition.
**Also you may try download Gparted Live CD to flag it or either using Norton Partition Magic.

After that try boot into vista, possible that it'll get winload.exe error, i was trying with XP, it got screw up big time. Here you'll just need to insert your Vista CD/DVD and "Repair Your Computer" after the language selection.

Guys and gals?
Has anyone successfully got Sound Blaster 5.1 working?
It's a emu10k1 pci card.

Tried the kXAudioDriver-1.2b1 and also 1.1, no luck.
