I've done more upgrades to version 2.
Now more tables are loadable (APIC & MCFG added) It also auto patches old style RSD PTR (to V3), auto generates XSDT and updates old short style FADT table to FADT V4 table after adding boot argument UpdateACPIVersion=Yes. Very handy for guys with old motherboards which only have ACPI version 1. I would say test this everybody I think you will like it. For developers: Changes have been done to dsdt_patcher.c and acpi.h Enjoy this release I've worked very hard on... it works very great for me. Milanca: please test this without FADT.aml replacement file in place, it should auto convert your table and add the missing stuff. Please test this hypothesis of mine. You should be able to use reboot function without replacement tables thus (yeah... auto patching baby... lol) |

Could some people please do some tests on the new booter?
Please report how well it works for you. If you have got ACPI V1 use ioregistryexplorer for copying your RSDT original and patched tables as well as the FACP original and patched tables (boot with original ACPI, copy the 2 tables and paste into a hex editor, save, boot with UpdateACPIVersion=Yes and repeat, upload both files). Also check that before patching under IORegistryExplorer in the IODeviceTree node under /efi/configuration-table/xxx there is a table with the alias "ACPI". Check again after patching and there should be a table with the alias "ACPI_20". If this works, patching went fine for you. Thanks to everybody in advance. |

Those who don't have IORegistryExplorer can allways give me the before and after Terminal ioreg output.
Like this you can do it: ioreg -lxw9999 > Something.txt And send me those files or post them. I really need testers on this because this is a work in progress... Thanks in advance. |
