Asus x201e (Sandy Bridge Celeron 847 + HD2000)

[berk]

Hi all

I'm willing to install a triple boot OSX ML/W8/ubuntu on my cheap little asus x201e laptop

Since I get to have this multiboot through uefi I'm trying to get clover working on that machine. I had to mess a little with bios parameters to make the clover USB pendrive to boot, I finally got to the clover screen and can now boot W8 or ubuntu from it. but no way to boot OSX install - even in safe boot mode

The furthest I went is with HFSPlus.efi + OsxFatBinaryDrv-64.efi + OsxAptioFixDrv-64.efi (with slide=0 in boot args in config.plist) option, I could pass the loading drivers step but then booting process stops at

MAC Framework successfully initialized

using 10485 buffer headers and 7290 clusters IO buffer headers

I've got FakeSMC.kext, NullCPUPowerManagement.kext and ApplePS2Controller.kext installed in both 10.8 and Other folders in EFI/CLOVER/kexts

I've tried to put an alternative AppleACPIPlatform.kext in both the same folders and in the S/L/E folder on my OSX install USB drive

I'm attaching here my clover config.plist (basically the default one apart from slide=0 modification)

config.zip

 

FWIW - i know beasts are not supported here but the info still might be useful - I've managed to install ML with no other trouble than boot the installer in safe mode with u.beast and a few kexts (basically touchpad, sound, battery management and modified intel graphics)

I've been trying hard to get that clover boot working! Now I could use a little help..

Thanks folks!

hello

if u use a custom dsdt .. why to use the dsdt fixes ?

good hack

[berk]

hey artur, thanks for the answer! actually i don't use a custom dsdt. as far as i understood it's just the way clover works - making some automatic dsdt fixes on bootup.. am i wrong? or do I have to configure something in that config.plist to disable a custom dsdt option that i didn't see?

if there is a way to get all this working with a custom dsdt i'd be happy to try it. no idea what to patch to get it working tho..

[artur-pt]

hello

man in u config .. u have a path to a dsdt.aml ?

where it is.. ? i think u should read more about clover and his configuration

good hack

Start with a "clean" config.plist like I posted in this topic

http://Olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=3901

Later, if you need, add other configs based on

http://clover-wiki.zetam.org/Configuration

There's a method to get CI working on HD 2000 (no QE), I have tested it myself

 

In order to get HD 2000 graphics working with a series 7 chipset you'll have to:

 

2. Remove AppleIntelFramebufferCapri.kext.
   
4. Remove AppleIntelHD3000GraphicsGLDriver.bundle.
   
6. Edit /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB.kext/Contents/Info.plist so that it looks like this (changes are marked with red characters):

hello

hd 2000 is not supported in mac os x

remove / move all appleontelhd*.* from system/library/extensions

yea actually that's one of the first things i did before. i also tried with replacing those kexts with the ones i know are working with my graphics. neither solved the problem but.. thanks!

what i can't understand is why i could be able to boot with u.beast, only chameleon config parameters being GraphicsEnabler set to Yes and also PCIRootUID=1 which i coudn't find the equivalent for clover config - i tried to add the string in the boot arguments list, nothing changed

thanks! i think i have CI already working with some graphic kexts replacement - i can use screen savers for instance. but not QE, so no correct video playback unfortunately

anyway my actual problem is to get osx installed (or bootable) with clover..
