Noob dreaming big. Will this solve dual core issues "cpus=1" on my intel T6500? And do I need to remove/rename the kexts that are no longer needed before trying?

The diffs can be obtained directly from me or qoopz from IRC. Plus I just want to add a couple of things

1. the 64-bit is flaky for AMD users - just dont try it. It will not boot or may not boot at all. If you are using 64-bit AMD64 with SSE2 (no SSE3) , its even worst as 64-bit heavily depends upon SSSE3 and SSE3. Since SSE2 users would have to emulate SSE3 , plus no SSSE3 emulation for native SSE3 users , its pretty much gone. You can't get QuickTime X to use 64-bit because of SSSE3. It will just bounce or may just say loading movie which it will not do.

2. Kernel panic - try to disable ata kext and troubleshoot it yourself. there are ways on how do it. Boot with verbose

3. cpus=1 - Thats related to your dsdt. You may need it to be manually patched up or do try TSCSync from Voodo. This is related to your BIOS. I've taken a look at most of HPs DSDT.dsl and they didn't even include anything for cpu1. So good luck with that , some can be patched , the rest well - you're on your own

Thank u for quick reply.

Then are the any benefit/inprovements for my system with this kernel? Everything in my activity monitor so far shows 64bit except couple.

I don't know whats going on there, I don't come any further.
Any ideas? (AMD SSE2, Installed from Leopard, copied kernel and some kexts)

Do you have both dsmos.kext and fakesmc.kext in Extra or /S/L/E remove dsmos.kext if you do and make sure your fakesmc.kext is for snow leopard

Giuly 10-14-2009 09:23 PM

fakesmc.kext is from netkas (V2), no dsmos. All I can get is singleusermode.

Did you try -legacy?

I got the same problem i think, but i didn't solve it yet.

I did however made a new partition with a fresh install. Using qoopz kernel + all other kext i had before and it booted. So it's probably related to some settings i have on the other partition...

xXrkidXx 10-14-2009 10:00 PM

ok wth... I can't make a partition from my Mac OS X Install dvd(iPC 10.5.6 PPF5)henever I try it keeps saying that I will erase Mac HD, but I still have stuff on there I want to keep... any ideas? this is just pre snow right now...
