10.2.0 Kernel for AMD/P4

Nawcom has made a 10.2.0 kernel for AMD/P4 users!
He made a nice installer for this. So you can just run the installer on 10.6.2 and youre good to go.
It also includes a patches SleepEnabler.kext.

Shouldnt it be 10.6.2 kernel instead of 10.2.0?

Anyway, through reading the links in the first post, one could conclude that it is basicly the qoopz 10.6.0 kernel updated to 10.6.2 without any significant changes?

What I mean is that it probably will not work for those who cant get qoopz's 10.6.0 kernel to work.

No. Why? 10.2.0 is the new Darwin Version that came with OS X 10.6.2 - the Version of Darwin doesn't match with the one of OS X, alltough most OS X master versions came with a new Kernel version (For example Tiger Kernel was 8.x Leopard one 9.x).
Your current Darwin Version can be displayed using "uname -a" on Terminal.

But you're right it's mainly a port of the quoopz Kernel.

AMD Phenom X3 8450 - ASRock AM2NF6G-VSTA (BIOS L2.39) - 4GB DDR2-800 - Radeon HD 4650 512MB - Snow Leopard Retail (retired) / OpenBSD

Without on-the-fly opcode patching done by the kernel SnowLeopard is useless on AMD.

Agreed.

For me this kernel doesn't work, neither did qoopz. Probably related to my system...
