Does it work with the 9.1 image? If it does, you probably have the same problem as I do with the new Macbook Air. Optimisations made to the xhci driver causes it to fail. What I've done is to create a new install image with sys/dev/usb/controller/xhci* reverted back to 243780. -- Johannes Lundberg Project leader and lead developer of Mirama OS (previously Viking OS) BRILLIANTSERVICE CO., LTD.
