Does the lba48 Open Firmware mod work in a Yikes! (Tiger 10.4.11)? As suggested on other LEM threads, i tried the suggested sequence, but couldn't get it to work using the commands on: http://nanchatte.wordpress.com/2008/04/27/128gb-large-hdd-lba48- support-on-the-g4-cube-with-leopard/
I repeat the process here for ease of responses: ***** ***** ***** * Reboot or Power up your Cube (G4) * Hold down Command + Option + O + F simultaneously as soon as the reboot starts. You should now be at the Open Firmware prompt. * Type in the following, exactly. Please note that the Underscore “_” is used to indicate a space. nvedit dev_hd dev_.. "_"_"_lba-48"_property device-end * Press Ctrl+C to exit from nvedit. nvstore setenv_use-nvramrc?_true reset-all That’s it. Now boot up and go to “About My Mac” to confirm the disk size. ***** ***** ***** Am I missing something? Is "_"_"_lba-48"_property to be typed with all the quotes? Might resetting PRAM be a good idea prior to trying this?
