Still Wait For Root Device In Mac
2021年7月21日Download here: http://gg.gg/vgxuq
I had similar problem ’Still waiting for root device’ with VB=5.0.14 r105127 Host=El Capitain, 10.11.3 Hardware= iMac Late2013, 8GRAM, Nvidia gfx Guest=10.6.3 (Snow Leopard) Install media: a.img file that I extracted from the 10.6.3 install DVD I then tried installing from the DVDread/disk itself, and things are proceeding smothly. Here you will find some solutions to the common ’Still waiting for root device’ issue which has been compiled from information in the osx86project wiki. If anyone has managed to solve it another way, please post it here. Solution 1 - change drive to primary The most common solution is making your OSX drive the primary IDE. In Verbose mode it crashes half way, a ’no entry’ icon pops up and the last text says ’Still waiting for root device’. I followed all the instructions one by one. I tried it in multiple USB drives and different ports; tried creating the installation drive with Unibeast and Terminal command; tried the latest and previous Clover EFI bootloaders.

A major problem preventing lots of users from using OSX86 on their pc.
*1nForce SATA[edit] nForce SATA [edit] No detection of SATA at boot in nForce3 once MacOS 10.4.6 is installed
After installing OS X 10.4.6 native with VMware with any of the method listed in the installation guides, the first boot was OK, configure the OSX with keyboard, personal info, etc..But when you turn it off and on again, it freezes in the holy ’Still waiting for root device’.My solution was, start OSX with the -v -x flags, for my surprise it recognize the SATA disk and start in safe mode. Then i went to Terminal, entered as root and typed the following..(extracted from ’AppleVIAATA.kext’ Method)
Then rebooted and everything worked fine..
Seems like reloading the extensions cause OSX load the SATA driver correctly at boot. If someone know why, you are welcome :) .reply for why does this happen-----when i was installing osx with windows installed,i by mistakely deleted the windows partition which became in red coloured text...i thin something important file was deleted ...[edit] You can use chroot to run this from the installer disc
Note that you can operate on an already-installed copy of Mac OS X from the install disc by accessing the Terminal utility. Snagit editor for mac windows 10. kextcache will crash, however, as it doesnt have write access to /tmp (as its mounted to a location on the read-only optical disc). You can work around this by running another instance of bash inside of chroot.. type chroot /Volumes/MyOSXInstall bash and the new bash shell will have a root path set to the root path of your installed volume. kextcache will work correctly. . .[edit] Other Problems
Likely problems:
SATA
Hard drive not set as Primary Master
Incompatible hardware
CMOS Checksum Bad ErrorStill Wait For Root Device In Mac Catalina
Solutions:
’AppleVIAATA.kext’ Method
Make Hard drive Primary Master hd 1
If you are using a SATA disk, make sure it is set for IDE legacy mode in the PC BIOS and not ’enhanced’
Get a IDE Hard Disk(you can attach the IDE hard disk, but still install the OS on the SATA drive. It just helps to get past the ’still waiting for root device error’.)
If accompanied by a CMOS checksum bad error at boot, reload BIOS optimised defaults, change to AHCI and HPET to 64-bit mode.(Post them if it is not listed)
Unplug all drives from the motherboard (CD/DVD) except the install drive and install via a USB DVD drive. It seems that OSX86 tries to install to a DVD drive on occasion. This worked for me on 7 different machines with this issue. You may reconnect after the install.
BootLoader
Sometimes the version of the BootLoader is too old or too buggy that it can’t detect the Hard-diskso Try to update the boot loader version manually voodooprojects.org
or using any Automatic Tool Like ’Chameleon Wizard’ or ’Champlist’
