Booting with lunfai's original boot flags, I let the PC interact with the hard drive and the flash drive for more than 30 minutes, but it stayed at the same screen for the duration of the time. What do you guys think is wrong now?

Again, these pictures were taken with my iPad, so if anyone needs higher-res pics, I can certainly get those to you.

Thanks,

I tried booting with GraphicsEnabler=yes, anbd I got no results. I'll try deleting that IntelCPUMonitor.kext first to see what happens.

I've only got 2 files in the Fakesmc.kext Contents: Info.plist and MacOSX. Inside MacOSX is a file called Fakesmc, that's it. Could that plugin you're talking about be hidden?

UPDATE: Still no success; I removed IntelCPUMonitor.kext as instructed by lunfai, and later booted both with and without GraphicsEnabler=Yes as suggested by Dellamorte. The boot process stops at "DSMOS has arrived"; The only good news is that there is no more warning coming from the IntelCPUMonitor...

I would use this bootflag



As for the IntelCPU kext getting in your install, I have no idea how you got that if you used iATKOS L2 unless you select customized and got it, as my machine doesn't have this, and also my retail installation. That kext just got onto your system somehow, I didn't think it caused the faliure to boot, but it gave errors in the verbose.

Maybe a clean iATKOS L2 would be in order, if you give it one last try

Also, Bronzovka is working on a new version kernel, he hasn't given much information but I think it's going to make the AMD kernel more like the original. But there are problems from it using applications right now.
