Shaun N. Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Updated my Hackintosh no problem, It knocked my sound out as it replaces AppleHDA.kext - I just reinstalled it using Multibeast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strelok1911 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Updated my Hackintosh no problem, It knocked my sound out as it replaces AppleHDA.kext - I just reinstalled it using Multibeast. Get rid of that AppleHDA patching crap and let your system breath vanilla by using VoodooHDA. Also on topic, the App Store is buggy (??) in this version? Flight Control HD update wouldn't disappear from the updates section, it would sit there even after removing the actual app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protocol7 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I guess the "Enhance the Mac App Store to get your Mac ready to upgrade to Mac OS X Lion" is the new "check for unfinished downloads" option. Nice to see this. System Profiler also has a Thunderbolt entry now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooky560 Veteran Posted June 24, 2011 Veteran Share Posted June 24, 2011 After installing 10.6.8 I've noticed a strange plain blue screen that appears for like 2 seconds between entering my password, and my desktop loading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 After installing 10.6.8 I've noticed a strange plain blue screen that appears for like 2 seconds between entering my password, and my desktop loading Is that on the first reboot after installing? That's just where the caches are cleared. If you restart again it should all be back to normal. iUserX and +John. 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPressland Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 iMac Updated using Combo Update. No Issues. Am doing a complete backup to File Server ready for Lion along side my TM Backups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadEndAccount Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Did the combo update on my 2011 iMac and MacBook Pro - everything is working beautifully. I'm excited about Lion and my Drobo server (which arrives next week) as well as moving away from Creative Suite over the next couple of months :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to have a Drobo, fantastic piece of equipment, but just too slow for my performance requirements. I wasn't aware they were making servers now?

Travelar Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 No problems updating my VM. :) Drobo... Server? I used to have a Drobo, fantastic piece of equipment, but just too slow for my performance requirements. I wasn't aware they were making servers now? They aren't. He's probably referring to the FS, which is a NAS. I have one... it's great, albeit a little slow on transfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a 2nd Gen /w Firewire 800. We have an FS at work and it's okay, but as you say, neither are particularly fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

game_over Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Installed this today and 2010 MBP has crashed twice when closing the shell, when i open it, it hasn't actually gone to sleep. hmm both times it was doing a backup to my NAS. I've also ran Onyx and installed Steam(not open during time of crash) and Dropbox so i'm not sure what it is? Anyway i can find out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
