I compiled a 10.7.4 kernel with a mix of patches with R:A:W 's patches and the anv's legacy kernel 0.5.1 for on the fly patching, it boots up for x86_64 and i386 without instant reboot. but gives a kernel panic near where launchd would start up...
I'll upload it soon for you to test.. I doubt you'll get any further than the KP tho, interesting that I am the only one who made a kernel that didn't instantly reboot....

hello,

I just tested your kernel on my phenom x4 and x6 in unlocker, actually, it loads normally and then finished cpu panic without reboot, you hit the goal! good job, thank you to you.

If I could help you, I would not hesitate but I do not understand it in prog.

I have wonderfully working Lion 10.7.3 on my AMD Phenom II 965 x4. 32-bit only though, but no need to worry about crashing or random kernel panics, everything works. Finder from DP2.

I would like to compile a kernel on this configuration, is it possible?
I know XCode is a 64-bit app and can't be run on my 32-bit Lion, but is there some other way to compile. Is XCode really required, or does the kernel compile with only the Command Line Tools from Apple? I compiled my own 10.7.3 kernel from my Snow Leopard, but as far as I know, Snow Leopard isn't suitable for compiling 10.8 kernel?

I would just like to test the new 10.8 kernel and try to patch it for AMD.

While compiling on the SL 10.6.8, XCode 4.2 (Command Line Tools newest version, hacked it to install on SL :D):
Code:

bash-3.2# make
MIG default_pager_object.h
MIG clock.h
MIG clock_priv.h
/Developer/usr/bin/mig: line 217: 20320 Done                    "$C" -E -arch ${arch} ${cppflags} -I "${sourcedir}" "${iSysRootParm[@]}" "${temp}.c"
    20323 Illegal instruction    | "$M" "${migflags[@]}"
make[4]: *** [default_pager_object.h] Error 1
make[3]: *** [build_exporthdrs_mi] Error 2
make[2]: *** [build_exporthdrs_mi_default_pager] Error 2
make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
/Developer/usr/bin/mig: line 217: 20303 Done                    "$C" -E -arch ${arch} ${cppflags} -I "${sourcedir}" "${iSysRootParm[@]}" "${temp}.c"
    20309 Illegal instruction    | "$M" "${migflags[@]}"
make[4]: *** [clock.h] Error 1
make[4]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
/Developer/usr/bin/mig: line 217: 20506 Done                    "$C" -E -arch ${arch} ${cppflags} -I "${sourcedir}" "${iSysRootParm[@]}" "${temp}.c"
    20509 Illegal instruction    | "$M" "${migflags[@]}"
make[4]: *** [clock_priv.h] Error 1
make[3]: *** [build_exporthdrs_mi] Error 2
make[2]: *** [build_exporthdrs_mi_mach] Error 2
make[1]: *** [build_exporthdrs_mi_osfmk] Error 2
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make: *** [exporthdrs_mi] Error 2

So the MIG has a problem with the source I think, compiling from Lion would maybe fix this?

ham4ever 08-13-2012 04:25 AM

can anyone plz tell me the stable kernel so far for Lion 10.7.2 32 bit ? without copy/delete/past problem and xpchelper crashes ?

xmaniak100 08-20-2012 01:32 PM

A Question
 
Ok guys. I am getting buldozer CPU is several days/weeks and i would like to ask... what exactly SSSE3/2/whatever :D does... And also... when i will have bulldozer and 64bit will work, everythings is gonna be as great as if i had intel??? And also, will the ALC892 driver tony has on his site work even though i have AMD what means different ids?

The Connactic 08-25-2012 02:05 AM

Yes, xmaniak! You'll have full 64-bit app support with a Buldozer CPU. Only the kernel will be 32-bit, therefore some hardware devices that relies only on 64-bit drivers (kexts) won't be usable. I don't remember any that falls in that category (and don't know nothing about Tony's ALC892).

jhusly 08-26-2012 01:39 AM

I have an fx-6100 and tried ALC892 audio kext but it wasnt working for me. I installed VoodooHDA 0.2.72 instead using multibeast 4.6.1 though there are still some noisy sounds while playing.

Let me thank you for the information ALC 892 chipset on Intel CM (win7), I try to understand why the CM AMD does not.

on my old Asus P8P67mpro ALC 892 audio working fine with patched AppleHDA.
I apply exactly the same method my Asus M5A97pro but wants nothing to do!

Here's what I like information about Mac OS X and Win7:

Delta, i'm very interested in the possibility of patching the Mountain Lion kernel so it runs on AMD machines. I opened a thread in Insanelymac forum about it: you're invited to post there about your own experiences, as i'm doing. Hopefully, we and whoever join us will help to spark a renewed interest for AMD hackintoshing. I'm an AMD stubborn, as said before.

Here's the link: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/ind...owtopic=281450

Which method did you use to try to patch the kernel from Command Line Tools? Which patches do you want to apply? Do you have a .diff file of these patches? How to apply it to the source; is it enough to put the diff at the same folder of the kernel and just enter "make" from Terminal? I'm not sure if i understood all steps. I have Lion 10.7.4 (on my AMD computer and on a MacBook Pro) and Mountain Lion (on my netbook), so i could try to repeat your experience from a proper instance, if you give me instructions how to do it.

Maaaan I tried soo many Patched VooDooHDA and AppleHDA and none worked... i have a very new mobo M5A99X EVO which i guess has newest realtek 892 audio... If you find a way to extract a DSDT from bios so i could add my Audio to the patched one(my patched DSDT did not include HDEF Device...)...maybe it would work...hovewer i see no other way...

I just had a brain wave... is it possible to run Internal Creative Sound Blaster VX in Lion???
Should theese work? http://kxproject.lugosoft.com/

If not could you point me to any other(best would be with 5.1 support) driver??? i suppose VooDooHDA doesnt work with non integrated card since its PCI isn it?

The Connactic 09-14-2012 06:14 PM

If you're talking about the EMU10K chip (Soundblaster Live! 5.1), i think this could help, xmaniak100; worked like a charm for my SB (supports various Soundblaster models):

Could someone make a video tutorial for those of us who are not intelligent and have problems reading but can see how to get lion working properly visual wise?

I am trying to do the method iATKOS L2, ShowAllFiles with Hackintosh Snow Leopard on Amd. How do I ShowAllFiles? Can anyone with a half-decent camera do a video tutorial. Thanks... I think I mess it up when I install the bootloader but now I forget how to even ShowAllFiles. I don't know this all seems very complicating and I know if someone did a video on it, it would make it much more easier for simple minded fools such as myself.

The Connactic 09-14-2012 11:18 PM

Godofwar, open a terminal window (terminal is an app, search in the spotlight bar or at the Aplications folder, inside the subfolder Utilities.

Then, type at the terminal:

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE

Pay attention! Type exactly as i wrote, since it's case sensitive. Then, <enter> and you tipe the following:

killall Finder

Then you hit <enter> again, and voilą: a lot of hidden files will suddenly show up!

The Connactic 09-14-2012 11:21 PM

xmaniak100, you're welcome!

Please report back, i want to know if it worked for you.

Alright, now I'm going to need all the exact files I need to get Amd Phenon IIx4 965 3.4ghz to work. Also, does partitioning the same Snow Leopard Harddrive I have to put lion on the other Partition work or will that cause problems?

That command doesn't work for me in the Terminal. Never mind got it to work by killing the finder... :D


Do I have to update Chameleon or can I use the current Chameleon rc5 I'm using with Snow Leopard?


Alright it failed again(for the millionth time) and messed up Snow Leopard side while I tried to make Lion. I give up on this overrated operating system.

The Connactic 09-15-2012 10:55 PM

If you're doing well with SL (system which most Apple customers consider the pinnacle of OSX), and need a system to do serious work with it for a living, why upgrade, since you'd be limited to a possibly unstable 32-bit system (the 32-bit part is not a possibility, but a certainty)? The question is specially valid if you have Xcode coding in mind, since it simply won't work on your system.

Otherwise, if you think about it as a kind of enjoyable science experiment, or if a 32-bit system suit well your demands and you're willing to investing a lot of time fine-tuning your machine, or both (my case), then you should keep on trying.

Snow Leopard is not compatible with GTX 570. Thank apple for never releasing drivers for this operating system, and for some reason no one is smart enough to make hacked drivers to make gtx 570/500 series work with snow leopard. I really don't get why the same drivers for the 400 series on apple do not work with the 500 series. It makes 0 sense to me. I know on windows, 8000 series, 200 series, 400 series, 500 series, all use the same drivers for Nvidia. The resolution is ugly on my 1920 x 1200 resolution when its force to 1024x resolution. Also, I keep getting a beachball loading on Snow Leopard and I have no idea why, it randomly does it at times.

Godofwar, try these tutorials for Lion:

http://www.hack-my-mac.fr/index.php/...fx-buldo#28896 (this is very good also)

Back up your Snow Leo before trying any of them. Report back, we're all helped when we know that something really works and how (by the way, hey, xmaniak!, did the drivers work?).

The simplest and cheapest is that you pass the bull and you profiteras FX graphics acceleration with Lion 10.7.

Maan I just got the card today...however i found out my brother misbought Audigy SE instead of VX... i thing its not the same audio chip so kx wont work...anything else?

I would try it anyway but i want to be at least 70% sure before rewriting OS on my SSD... I think its gonna die soon

The thing is that on the kx web they have this (Audigy SE/LS which is not EMU10K(1 or 2) will not work!) however on wikipedia it writes that Audigy SE has EMU10K2 which is supported

Could i actually test whether audio will work on VM??

EDIT on other web I found that it is chip Audigy

ham4ever 09-18-2012 05:23 PM

hii i have a problem i moved Lion to other HDD using CCC,, and now i cant boot from other HDD ,, only this appears _ and blinks , , any idea how to install chameleon using windows, coz i lost all other mac partations

The Connactic 09-18-2012 05:49 PM

Ham4ever, i would try the following: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/ind...owtopic=113288

xmaniak100, you can try the kx drivers with your Audigy. The worst thing that can happen is that the drivers don't work. Is your SSD broken? Vmware and other virtualization software emulate their own card, so the answer is no, you can't.

Godofwar 09-19-2012 01:25 AM

I know where I mess up at, it has something to do with me only having two harddrives. I partitioned the mac harddrive to have snow leopard and lion on it but something gets messed up when I do everything else after that. Keep in mind i'm using easybcd for a boot menu for Windows 7 and Mac.

This is the problem I'm having. I know if I had 3 harddrives which I don't, I could easily just delete Snow Leopard.

Its not broken yet hovever i cahnge my OS like 100 times a mounth and i am feeling that its dieing

Well I know but i dont have a disk to back up my system so i wanna be sure...could i test with kx drivers for windows??? are they the same?

The problem is that i dunno whether there is no post about that card because its impossible to make it work or because its so easy :D

Ou... I dont want to mess something up so create a timemashine backup... but i would delete the partition with SL and if i got some boot1/0: errors i would do this...it worked for me: http://www.macbreaker.com/2012/02/ha...ot0-error.html

As the guy sais... use chameleon 2.1 2.0 doesnt work with lion

Godofwar 09-19-2012 06:41 PM

I refuse to let this screw up again, I erased and started over again. I just reinstalled Snow Leopard. Now are there any Kexts from my Snow Leopard side that I am going to want to put in my Lion Harddrive and would I use a tool to do that a kext wizard tool or could I do it manually? Also, can I use Chameleon 2.0 RC5 r747 (pkg) on my Lion harddrive as a bootloader? Is that version new enough? Tell me anything else you may think I might be messing up? I'm on Osx86 dot net right now, which Chameleon bootloader do you suggest me to download from there? Thanks

Also, when I installed my Lion side to the partition harddrive last time the mach Kernel on it won't let me replace it with mach kernel v4, what I did last time was delete Mach Kernel on Lions harddrive than I stuck Mach Kernel v4 in it. Is that normal and the correct way to do that?

Thanks


I'm using Mach Kernel v4 for Amd Phenom II x4 965, is that the correct Kernel for my processor?
I feel I'm so close to getting this thing to work with the help of you guys, I think I'm on my way... Thanks!

Godofwar 09-19-2012 08:27 PM

So I rushed ahead and did the process again and just realized that something is wrong yet again. For whatever reason my bootloader stays the older version even after I delete the Snow Leopard partition. It makes 0 sense to me and I installed the newer Chameleon onto the Lion but no it wants to keep detecting the old Boot Loader. Any solutions for this dumb bootloader that doesn't want to update to the newer bootloader? So my problems are boot loader related because the freaking bootloader loves to stick with the 2009 version even tho I have a 2012 version of Chameleon that I installed on Lion, I erased the Snow Leopard Partition yet some how Chameleon 2009 version is still there.

Godofwar 09-19-2012 10:05 PM

My neighbor let me borrow his sata harddrive. Will this process be easier and work with 3 harddrives? 1 harddrive with Windows 7, the other with Snow Leopard and the other with Lion.

Something is not getting along with Snow Leopard now, it refuses to even install Snow Leopard now that I have 3 harddrives... Don't know why. I think my Windows 7 side is to blame. Im backing stuff up and going to run quick-erase in DBAN so all 3 harddrives get a fresh clean so I can start over again. Probably the millionth time I have had to reinstall Windows 7.

Godofwar 09-20-2012 05:57 AM

I don't know whats going on, because DBAN did not fix the problem. With 3 harddrives in my computer it is not allowing me to install Snow Leopard anymore. Instead I get a weird error now saying Cmos failed 3 times or something saying that. This is very strange... Now I have a bigger headache now.

So first of all You CAN NOT use any SL kexts on lion...it makes sense same as you cant use windows XP drivers on Windows 7... You must use chameleon 2.1 there is a link: http://www.osx86.net/downloads.php?d...YwLnBrZy56aXA= And manually replacing kernel isnt bad :)

Yes you will have less problems with multiple hard drives since nothing will overwrite nothing... Is it refusing showing the HDD in disk utility? if yes...have you set it up for AHCI??? I had this problem since my bios has option for AHCI on port 1-4 and 5-6 and i changed only 1-4

It may happen if it was installed to the EFI partition which has priority over the normal one...try to delete or reformat it... you should be able to see it with command sudo diskutil list

Used Mod Cd boot disc like I normally do and I use Hazard 10.6.6i(something I know they don't like us talking about here) but its what I used to use to get Snow Leopard running because I could never get retail to work ever. Used to install fine before I had my neighbor put his harddrive in temporarily so I can do this little Hackintosh project. Maybe one of the plugged in cords is causing this weird CMOS failing 3 error? Should I try filming this all with my Vita camera(It's junky but all I have...)

Edit: I'm gonna make another video so people can see what I see. Also I used to use the -v -x -f cpus=1 busratio=20 arch=i386 on modcd plus hazards distro but that really isn't needed. I tried doing it and I still get the error so I know that command isn't needed.

New Video, new problem... I thought 3 harddrives would finally be my solution to getting Lion to finally work... Now I have a new problem, can't even install Snow Leopard anymore... Weird CMOS errors showing up now. There is no easy way to get Lion to work with my rig, unless I'm just a screw up.

Thanks, since 3 harddrives were causing that error in Snow Leopard I decided to do only two. But I have a trick up my sleeve. I did this so far. I installed Windows 7, easybcd, added snow leopard to the boot. Installed Snow Leopard on my 2nd harddrive. Now I'm in my Snow Leopard side currently, I erased my Windows 7 side(This is where I'm going to install Lion). And than after I install Lion I'm going to put Windows 7 disc install my computer and delete my Snow Leopard side, install Windows 7 again and add Lion to the boot side on Easy BCD. And everything should work out beautifully if that Chameleon boot loader you gave me for lion will work. :p

Is this crazy enough to work?

OMG, OMG, OMG I GOT IT WORKING! LION LOADS BUT I DON'T HAVE ANY INTERNET CONNECTION ETHERNET CONNECTION ISN'T DETECTED ARE THERE ANY kexts for it? Sorry for caps, I'm so excited!!! I can't believe that I got it working! I need Kexts for my internet and Voodoo Kexts to get my audio working. No which ones I'll need? I can't believe I got it working. Also, finder is not working so I need the correct finder.

any idea to get latest chameleon to install in USB using winows , ?? i can't acces any MAC partition

Godofwar 09-20-2012 10:28 PM

Yeah, I realized that Chameleon still refuses to install to my Lions harddrive. I only got Lion working because a black loader came up and I'm pretty sure thats not Chameleon. :'(

I still have the problem of my Finder being broken, Sound not working, and internet not working for Lion. They really don't make this all that easy for me.

Congratulations, Godofwar!

Which method did you use?

Finder won't work. Google Lion DP2 Finder (is a 32-bit version).

Google also kexts.com - there you will find any kext that you really need.

Typing from my playstation vita. Im still having problems to some degree. Will i have to use legacy command each time? Also what kexts do i need to get internet to work? I know theres a pkg file for voodoo sound to work. Is there a kext or pkg file to get internet? Plus, i willl need that dock pkg or kext.

I can not get windows 7 and lion to co-exist. I also still am missing sound and network from lion. I do not know how to install the dock.
