set of legacy kexts for ich9/10

December 16th 2008 Posted to Apple,Leopard,pc efi,Update Guides

I took legacy kexts made by cyclonefr for ich9, added ich10 support and sharing them.

just put it to /Extra/Extensions.mkext and u can forget about orange icons with sata and ich9/10 problems.(like having to add device id or etc).

p.s. in case of pcefiv9. waht to do with those kexts ?

put them to /Extra/Extensions/ folder

run few commands:

sudo chown -R 0:0 /Extra/

sudo chmod -R 755 /Extra/

sudo kextcache -a i386 -m /Extra/Extensions.mkext /Extra/Extensions

sudo mv /Extra/Extensions /Extra/Extensions1

last command renamed Extensions folder, to make sure bootlaoder will load exactly mkext

    It would be helpful to include ICH8R support in your kext.

    Good stuff. There are many many missing ICH* entries missing from this kext.

    I have created another one and tested on a Dell Vostro 400 which I previously had been only using an old version of AppleAHCIPort.kext. Now I can use the 10.5.6 version, plus LegacyAppleAHCIPort.kext, with my modified Info.plist file.

    You can find it here:

    Hi,

    this patch also shows the harddisks on the jmicron controller as ‘internal’ therefor ‘e-sata’ hotswop isn’t working anymore with these legacy kexts…

    any idea? including ich series “AHCI v1.20”, but excluding jmicron “AHCI v1.00” ?

    Q: I dont have such /EXTRA folder.
    1. Does chameleon V11 support that ?
    2. if 1. not, can i put them in the /System/Extensions or are they only for /EXTRA + special bootloader (BOOT132).
    Thanks

    but it doesn’t work with my third SATA disc! I have GA-EP35-DS3L mobo with ICH9 and only 2 ports working with LegacyAppleIntelPIIXATA.kext

    Works fine. Do get these in my system.log however –

    extension org.tgwbd.driver.LegacyAppleAHCIPort is not loadable
    localhost kernel[0]: Can’t determine dependencies for org.tgwbd.driver.LegacyAppleAHCIPort.

    Thanks. It shows “Intel ICH10R AHCI” on system information.
    but the hard disk is still orange 🙁
    How can I fixed it?
    I have GA-EP45-UD3R and my SATA disk use ICH10 connectors.

    Hi Netkas!

    I followed your instructions and updated my mac os x to 10.5.6. My mobo is a p5e (ich9). When I shut down my computer the fan will not quit running. Do you think this problem could be solved with this kexts? It used to do the same before update.

    Legacy didn´t, but OpenHaltRestart.kext solved my problem.
    You´v been doing a great job.
    Thanks
