Thanks Christian :-) that works now. I now understand that the last module I have to load is ata_pthru That's great. So currently I can turn off APM and got rid of the clunking. Next step is to make OSX load.
I'm now using
insmod hfsplus set root=(hd0,1) multiboot /boot
I moved 'insmod hfsplus' *before* 'insmod ata_pthru' and changed set 'root=(hd0,1)' to 'set root=(ata0,1)'
Problem seems to be that after loading ata_pthru it has some problems with the prefix and still wants to /boot in (hd0,1)
I have also tried
search --file --set=root /boot multiboot /boot
Thanks for any help
