10.7.4 AMD Kernel

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.... http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?u3kbvqy9it4sjda

Hi justinster123,

here my test with LION 10.7.4
with the following boot flag:

usekernelcache=no cpus=6 maxmem=4096 -v, f

and with

-legacy usekernelcache=no -force64 arch=x86_64 busratio=17 cpus=6 maxmem=4096 –v -f

and with

-legacy usekernelcache=no -force64 arch=i386 busratio=17 cpus=6 maxmem=4096 -v - f

I get every time a KP, see picture

hello frisco2,

résulat same as you, I give up for now, I ordered a small FX 6100 to 119 € with 15 € for reimbursement by AMD.

The x4 960 t , I'll put it back in its box and put it on my mantle for memories of good times !!!

Some informations to your kernelflags:
1. Don´t use arch=x86_64 and -legacy togehter, cause you can use 32 bit or 64 bit kernelmode and not both at same time.

2. arch=i386 and -legacy is the same but i think only -legacy is implemented in this kernel.

3. -force64 is not implemented in this kernel so it´s absolutly useless.
(On SnowLeopard it was used to enable 64 bit userland while running 32 bit kernelmode)

Absolutely not the same.
arch= gives advice to Chameleon wether the i386 or x86_64 should be loaded, while -legacy disables the use of EM64T in case the i386 Kernel is loaded. (so to say the opposite / disbaler of -force64 mode, which is now loaded by default on all CPU like when you are using the Vanilla Kernel.)

Hi @ll

Thanks for the quick answers, but it does not matter what I enter as a boot flag, it is always the same error message

I compiled another kernel without the opcode patcher that boots to the point where launchd would boot up and no further on x86_64 ... Those of you with fx and test it out but @R:A:W does your kernel work in 64 bit kernel space on your amd?

No. But the x86_64 Kernel I compiled from my collection of patches, has been booting on yours as well - hasn't it.

I have started some testing on this, but it's yet another needle in a haystack...

A little of topic:

Has someone yet managed to compile the ML Kernel in Lion?

lmao do you want me to upload it anyways for you to try? .__.
I really need to see if it will boot for you in 64-bit kernel space

Of course, you are welcome to upload it.
I am not very busy atm, so I could try it if you want me to.
