For the uninitiated among us, the installation goes like this (on a mac): 1) insert a USB stick, open Disk Utility, partition the key as 1 partition selecting GUID Partition Table under options, making the format Mac OS Extended (not 'Journaled' so the key can be accessed under linux installations if required) and give it a name without spaces - mine is called 'USBbootStickKey' here 2) once formatted, and still in Disk Utility, right click (control click) on the new partition in the left hand pane and select 'Information' - write down the Disk Identifier - mine is 'disk5s1' 3) download the zip from here, unzip and copy the resulting folder onto you newly formatted key 'USBbootStickKey' 4) download 'AsereBLN 1.1.9' from this thread - http://www.efixusers.com/showthread.php?t=644 - unzip it and place the resulting folder 'Booter_AsereBLN_v1.1.9' on your desktop 5) open Terminal.app and blindly paste the following in: (note: sections in brackets are instructions, and not for pasting into Terminal!) cd (drag the Booter_AsereBLN_v1.1.9 folder into the Terminal window - so it will read something like 'cd /Users/YOURUSERNAME/Desktop/Booter_AsereBLN_v1.1.9' - remeber the space after 'cd') hit return (cd means 'change directory' and you have now moved to the Asere directory within Terminal) sudo fdisk -f boot0 -u -y /dev/rdisk3 (change rdisk3 to the first part of your Disk Identifier which you wrote down earlier - so if your disk identifier was 'disk5s1' enter 'rdisk5') hit return sudo dd if=boot1h of=/dev/rdisk3s2 (again change the disk identifier at the end, this time using the whole thing you wrote down - if it is 'disk5s1' then replace rdisk3s2 with 'rdisk5s1' - dont leave out the 'r') hit return sudo cp boot (leave a space and drag your USB stick to the terminal - after doing that mine reads 'sudo cp boot /Volumes/USBbootStickKey') hit return Now the key should be ready to boot with! Make sure it is selected as the first boot device in your BIOS settings! |

I am seeing a problem were USB peripherals stop working if the machine is left on overnight - the only solution is to either hard reset or SSH in from another machine and reboot from there. I was using version 1.3 of this release before without this problem (but with a regular hang on shutdown) Is anyone else seeing this? |
