I think its best to wait till Snow Leopard is officially released, after that there will be more kernels/kexts/bootloaders...

on the fly patcher requires a kernel source from apple and a huge workaround. Since apple did not release 10.6 kernel sources yet, the only way to make the kernel work on amd is to modify it with a hexeditor. eg take the original kernel and patch it. A binpatched kernel will never support the "on the fly cpuid patcher". Itīs not possible! greets, modbin ;) |
welcome at board modbin.... thx for your kernel.... :D

And thanks for explanation. This may be stupid question, but is there a way to make 10.0.0 kernel from 9.8.0 source? Patch 9.8 kernel for SL instead of patching 10.0 kernel for AMD? SL is almost useless on AMD without on-the-fly opcode patching. SSE3 emulation and 64-bit support on AMD are also important parts of Voodoo kernel. |
@maya77, just give it some days/weeks ;)
Once the sources are out im sure someone will make a new kernel with opcode patching :) |
problem with 9600 gt
hey, so i've installed 10a432 on my friends hackintosh gigabyte p45udl. he has a 9600gt with 1024mb of ram. we got the bootup, sata, sound and networking working but can't get the video working.
i've tried creating a custom efi string with osx86 tools and putting it in boot.plis with the name, 1024mb ram and dvi-dvi. but no luck. i've also tried editing nvdav50hal.kext and nvdaresman.kext to put in the devid in the info.plist. how did you get your 9600gt working? all you did was the efi string? how did you generate it? do you have any injectors? on leopard (5.7) his card works fine with nvdarwin injector. i thought this card would be easy to install but efi studio and acpi patcher do not have prebuilt efi strings for it. the card is actually dvi,vga and hdmi i think but we'd be happy with just the dvi working. thanks for your help |

if u use 32 bit mode some injector still working |
Maybe another silly idea or....?
Ok! This may be another silly idea. But would it be possible to load a cpuid patcher/simulator from a bootloader just before loading mach_kernel? I don't know if this would be possible as I'm not a programmer, but I was thinking QEMU, which can even simulate lots of non-intel cpu architectures using intel/amd cpus. I know tha QEMU is an open-sourced program that needs to be loaded UNDER an os in order to be used but.....
If there could be something like that, all amd users could run unmodified vanilla kernels. So I would like to have an answer from people who have the appropriate knowledge on programming.
