TheRobster5555 Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share Posted December 1, 2017 I have tried the right top and bottom and the rear left port, and if I remember correctly, the rear and the right are on 2 usb busses. I did some googling and I found a fix that said I should add USBBusFix=Yes as an argument. I'll try all of the USB ports and if that doesn't work, I'll try that boot argument.

Moderators Jake Lo Posted December 1, 2017 Moderators Share Posted December 1, 2017 Are you using files from Hervé's guide? Your SMBios should be MBP5,1 or MBP7,1 You should have USB_Injector.kext inside /Extra/Extensions, that should fix the "waiting for root device".

TheRobster5555 Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share Posted December 1, 2017 I'll check on my G4 when I get home, I could've easily skipped over it. If it's not there, where could I find those files to download? Also I keep thinking about that SMBIOS, how do I check if it's reporting the right model?

Moderators Jake Lo Posted December 1, 2017 Moderators Share Posted December 1, 2017 Hervé's D630 guide In post #3 you mentioned that you're following his guide and I assume you're using his bootpack. In the bootpack, there's a file in Extra call SMBios.plist. You can preview it by selecting the file and hitting the spacebar. You can also view the file with Chameleon Wizard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRobster5555 Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share Posted December 1, 2017 I'll check it, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRobster5555 Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share Posted December 1, 2017 I just looked and SMBios.plist isn't there... I'm going to see if I can find a download Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted December 2, 2017 Administrators Share Posted December 2, 2017 you can generate your own smbios . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted December 2, 2017 Moderators Share Posted December 2, 2017 Are we looking at the same guide? Here's the link to the bootpack I see SMBios.plist is already set to MBR7,1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRobster5555 Posted December 2, 2017 Author Share Posted December 2, 2017 That's weird, for some reason the pack I downloaded from the guide didn't have the smbios.plist, but that link did. Anyways, it got me past the root device thing, but it Kernal panicked... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
