Hello Everybody!!! I need help with Installing Hackintosh on my notebook. In the video you can see the error message (BY THE WAY SORRY FOR THE BAD QUALITY). I had the still waiting root device, and just changed the HD where osx was installed to IDE1, and in bios i changed the first boot device to the Second HD, where xp is so os selector would appear. Share this post. Before 'Still waiting for root device', it have 'No interval found for. Using 8000000' on both Dell XPS and the Lenovo laptop. A copy of a macOS/Mac OS X. 'Still waiting for root device'. When booting from USB means that there is a problem finding a valid System folder to start up from on your USB flash drive. This is usually because the flash drive is in a USB3 port.
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.
You may have faced this error while Installing macOS or after a successful Installation in Hackintosh or real Macintosh
In this post I'm going to explain this problem and suggest a solution with using my personal experience.
What does 'Still waiting for root device' means ?
It means that a driver/kext for the source from which you are booting is not detected properly by the mac operating system (USB kext not detected or loaded)
