Thread: Ok, I have finally gotten Multibeast, and Combo Update...

But still need the -x to boot the system. I also need the disk still, or it boots to a black screen. I think I have kexts causing issues, but I do not know how to address this, and what I need to change.

Can some nice individual(s) help get the kexts figured out?

I have no access to the internet, and no access to dvds/ cds on the hackintosh. I am assuming that this is because of the safe mode boot, but I do not know how to address this.

I am getting somewhere..just don't know where...lol

anyone point me towards a kext how-to?

I google it, and all I get is people running their intel i3/i5/i7's.

I know I ask a lot of questions, but how to learn if you don't ask what you don't understand?

So, I don't have an ATI video card, and in /Systems/extensions i have about 20 kexts that are for ATI..can I just delete them?

ok, so deleted the ati kexts and the system will still only boot using iboot and -x

I guess, I can go one by one, but there is a lot of kexts in there...?

alrighty...I deleted the voodoo hd kext, and I can now boot into SL10.6.6 using just -v...not needed, I know, but hey..no safe mode!!!!!

all I need is two things:
to get going now is the network....I have network being found, but dial up adapter, not lan..
and secondly I can't boot without using modhack....

any help is greatly appreciated.

If you can only boot with the modhack try the kextstat trick I learn you to see the difference in which kexts are loaded.

Use Systeminfo to find a kext for LAN.

For me it shows up like this:

Ok, I have run system info, and I have the following 2 screens afterwards:

I do not know how to add kexts to make the network adaptor work.

I read the link he posted and I can help, if you prefer I can use Teamviewer remote destop to help yo an watch or I can watch you, and assist as needed, here is the download for teamviewer TeamViewer - Free Remote Control, Remote Access & Online Meetings ,

That would help on my pc, but the Hack doesn't have internet, so that wouldn't really help out there.

So close I can taste it,

I really do appreciate all the help everyone here is being.

Ok, I have followed the above instructions. I get no errors during the install, and the kext is now in the /System/Library/Extensions folder. I cannot however access the internet. I have it setup just like the instructions said...

This is what network diagnostics said:

I have my lan cable running straight to a switch that the pc I am typing on now is hooked to. So I know I have internet here, and I have reset the router, modem, and switch.

Again, I appreciate the help that everyone is giving me.
