10.6.5 legacy kernel for INTEL/AMD V2 (32+64bit)

[andyvand]

I use the anvalv boot loader myself.
I guess it depends on the hardware wether it works or not...
For those who are wondering: I use the following one (latest)

Hey Andy,
i tried to use your appleatiata but it don´t work as it should.
I was not able to burn cd´s or dvd´s.
Do you have an idea what´s the reason for it?

Thx & Greetz

Unfortunetely no.
Otherwise I would have fixed that issue some time ago.

First of all great work to every one,

I have been able to boot the 64 kernel on my machine (wow!)
I have an issue I hope someone can help me with. I have a NVidia 8500 GT and it's not working properly.

Using GraphicEnabler=yes I get a black screen every now and then and some colored lines poping all around. But then with the previous kernel 10.6.5 it started working fine. But with the last release it broke again

It is basically very annoying but you can still do some work on it.

I did search for it a while a go but couldn't find anything useful. Since it seems to be kernel related perhaps someone can shed some light. By the way with the 64 kernel it works much better with minimal issues (but then my network driver breaks )

Thx

Im booting with 32 bit

[m28ew]

Sadly on my AMD Phenom II x4,
it panics randomly even in 32-bits mode (booting with arch=i386 ; either with/without -force64)

Warning: invalid kernel IP, wont attempt to handle trap

[ashp]

Thanks alot using this right now on OS X Server.

[RetroRen]

A big thanx to Andy and all of the people included in this project. Kernel is excelent.

Almoust a year ago I gave up from SL on my AMD machine (GA MA-790X UD4P, AMD Phenom II X2 550, 8 Gb DDR2 667 RAM, ATI HD 3850), but I gave it a try few days ago and it was a succsses

I installed 10.6.3 SL from .dmg on my 10.5.6 installation, put a few kexts in S/L/E and E/E folders, dsdt, newest chameleon, and PCI EFI and this kernel, and I'm able to boot in safe mode. Updated to 10.6.5 and I'm stuck again with safe mode (I guess due to VGA).

There are few more problems that are not related with the kernel that I need to solve:
1. BIOS resets - DSDT needs RTC patching (shouldn't be a problem).
2. USB mass storage devices not working, although USB mouse works perfectly (a saw a fix floating around OSX86 forums)
3. Audio doesnt work on Realtek ALC889A (there are a lot of kexts, I need to tryout)
4. Upon start up I need to plug out and plug in PS2 keyboard in order to work.
5. My VGA doesnt work with QE/CI in SL, will have to buy a new one. I can only boot to safe mode, upon the normal boot I get stuck with a black screen.

I have a question about the kernel:
I installed it after 10.6.5 combo update froma pkg installer.
What do I need to patch and how?
I was out of a OSX86 SL for a while, I'm a bit rusty

Andy, good luck with developing a on the fly patcher for the kernel

USB problems are true, but en ECHI mode...
But it's too late for me, I have to format again, FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU

[davisin666]

I solved the usb problem using USB kexts from 10.6.2 but when connecting some usb device like a pendrive, in a while the whole system lags.

There is a report log

08-12-10 16:33:02 kernel IOHIDSystem::relativePointerEventGated: Unwanted Direction Change Y: oldDy=1 dy=-9

And continues until I reset

Also my CPU is recognized as a 2.6GHZ Core Duo, and I overclocked that to 3.01 (I'm using Chameleon RC5)
Sorry for my bad english xD
I SOLVED I MY PROBLEMS WITH THE USB

Just using the kexts from multibeast and for the cpu using legacy_kernel v2 and boot.zip xDDD
The cpu was a TSC problem
