colanderbrain Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Hi, I got a Samsung np300v5a laptop: Core i5 2450m hm 65 HD 3000 - works Gforce gt 520mx - video not working atheros 9287 - wifi works alc 269 - audio works focusrite scarlett 8i6 - audio works My problem is that the bootloader boots from usb only. when i install chimera, chameleon or clover the boot will result in a bios boot loop. i tried different versions of chimera and chameleon now. I also tried the boot1h thing for hds with 4k sectors. I installed the Laptop with unishit, use MacBook Pro 8.1 smbios.plist. ssdt created by a tool of revogirl, dsdt modified by artur-pt, edited io80211.....kext, voodoohda for alc269, Any ideas? Thank you in advance! Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colanderbrain Posted November 14, 2013 Author Share Posted November 14, 2013 Hi, Here are the smbios.plist and the boot.plist. I cannot make screenshots because there is no boot up. it will not come to the chameleon screen. It just flashes the lights two times after bios and then off. Or do you mean the bootlog while booting from the usb? Can it be that the bios somehow blocks the boot of chameleon? I updated it to the latest version before i started the hack. Thank you very much for your help... Extra.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pernacabeluda Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Is your HD partitioned as GUID or MBR? Some BIOS only boot legacy (Chameleon) in MBR. To use GUID you must use UEFI boot loader (Clover) http://Olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=3405 -Guides and Tutorials HERE -Hackintosh Tutorial Database - HERE -The largest EFI folder collection for Hackintosh HERE -Support Olarila Vanilla Hackintosh by making a donation HERE -Professional Consulting for macOS Hackintosh since 2006 HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colanderbrain Posted November 14, 2013 Author Share Posted November 14, 2013 Hi, Yeah its GUID partitioned. Alright am gonna try to install clover with uefi boot enabled in bios.. Can i actually install osx on mgr? I thought i can't do that. On my old Laptop its chameleon and GUID as well. Thank you very much for your help...

pernacabeluda Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Yes, it's possible to install on MBR, you just need 2 patched files http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/files/file/145-mavericks-mbr-patch/ Like I said, this problem happens in "some BIOS". Most can boot legacy no matter what partition table you use. -Guides and Tutorials HERE -Hackintosh Tutorial Database - HERE -The largest EFI folder collection for Hackintosh HERE -Support Olarila Vanilla Hackintosh by making a donation HERE -Professional Consulting for macOS Hackintosh since 2006 HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boot is working now thank your tutorial. It boots just from usb and from efi partition only, but am more than ok with the efi partition. When i previously tested clover i thought its like chameleon...install and run. didn't work so i left it. But now i know to have a proper config.plist and the right uefi drivers installed. from here i got hints for the config.plist. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/282787-clover-v2-instructions/#entry1852870 (in case it helps someone with a similar problem) Thank you very much for your help to another step closer, Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
