ASUS P6T Hackintosh & OS X Mountain Lion
I just finished installing OS X Mountain Lion (latest preview) on my new Intel 520 SSD. The 520 is one of the fastest consumer SSD’s on the market today. Even though my 3 year old ASUS P6T mainboard doesn’t support SATA-3, the 520 still performs ridiculously fast. It takes a mere 6 seconds from the Apple logo to the desktop. The spinning Apple circle doesn’t even show up.
Installation went pretty smoothly using Tonymacx86′s UniBeast and MultiBeast.
Will somebody please teach the guys in Redmond about how to speed up an operating system boot?

Hello,
what p6t DSDT did you use?? or you used the easy install on multibeast ?
to janjac
did you try writting ,,PCIRootUID=0,, in chimera when starting to boot ?
Hi cmuchal
And thanks ;)
Actually i did my install again and this time it went good.
So certainly there was some “human error” in the options choice.
Anyway thanks for your reply :-)

i tried with hdmi / vga but anyway it doesnt looks working.

Hi gsus
You may try to boot with the -v option to see whats happening in the verbose format
also you may add the option GraphicsEnabler=No
In case your video card is not natively ok

Hi pocharlies, I’m having the same problem with both OS. I only have a Vertex 2 SSD but it doesn’t work as fast as it should. :S
Hi,
do you have a regular P6T? Not SE or Deluxe? If you have an older version, what installation options did you choose exactly? Because I am having a problem with OSX recovering from sleep, an over a minute delay on boot and also I can’t set the onboard soundcard (but I am using a Juli@ instead).
Thanks!
hi
I have a pure p6t ;)
(bios at last revision)
for audio I did this :

The dsdt from here & fleebailey are good
The sleep problem can have multiple sources (mine was a problem with video card)
On this post :

There is a dsdt with no hdef section and the section with gtx560ti video so you may paste there whats needed for your gpu
