thanks andy very much

Thank you Andy!

Getting a major ACPI related kernel panic when using arch=x86_64 here,I'll take a photo later, -force64 works as it should though:>
Have to use chameleon rc4 to see it, with anval it just reboots immediately, I'll update this after further investigation.

Thank you for the update. I have a question regarding the CPUID. In your latest release you gave us an installer which patched the CPUIDs. This was great, but not patching everything (e.g. Spotlight private tab crashes). Could this be because I ran this on 10.6.5?

Will you release a patcher for 10.5 too and will this work although I patched 10.4 in 10.6.5?

Again thanks for your work!

[wastez]

Hello,

Do i´ve to patch dyld with this kernel too?
Or do i´ve to use the original one?

Thx for your really hard work.

i can confirm the same KP using arch=x86_64

Hello,

Everthing is working fine.
Just iPhoto doesn´t work.
I´ve the same problem with the legacy_kernel v5. (of course i changed the libSystem.B files)
With the anv_kernel 10.4.0 rev4 and the patched dyld files also iPhoto works.

Would be really nice if someone can help me.....

Thx and greetz 2 all

[$The-King$]

arch x86-64 dosent work :(
also same problem with quick time crashes on 64 :eek:
i am so sad :'(
but thanks for your work andy :D

[wastez]

Hello,

There is something really interessting.
I tried the patched dyld files from 10.4.0 v4 and iPhoto works......

arch=x86_64 also doesn´t work. ;)

[wastez]

Hello,

It was to early to be happy about it that iPhoto works.
I´m able to open it but if i´m going to import something iPhoto crashes......

…

First of all I am not sure about dyld.

But I thought the package patches the CPUIDs which are responsible for problems with iPhoto. Are these patches related to each other? iPhoto works here but I experience crashes from Safari with enabled plugins while opening www.perian.org. If I disable the plugins it works. It is probably a part of QT.

So what do I have to do?


CPUID patching from package 10.4 even in 10.6.5
CPUID patching from package 10.4 only in 10.6.4, partly working in 10.6.5
CPUID manual patching required
dyld patching
dyld patching and CPUID patching
CPUID patching is done by the kernel on the fly (I read this should be released in 10.5)



I use Chameleon 2 RC4 on AMD if this makes any difference.

Thanks

[davisin666]

Two questions, I have to patch dyld and -force64 works???

Sorry for my bad english xD

[jackokk]

Thanks you so much.

I am still testing on AMD Athlon II X4 620 (2.6 MHz), 8 Gb, DDR2-800, HIS Radeo HD 5750 Memory 1 Gb.

[wastez]

Hello,

So i´ve to patch the cpuid´s again after update? That is strange because itunes works without problems.
Quick times also not work with this kernel wether in 64 Bit or in 32 Bit. :mad:
Would be really interessting what i´ve to do that all works.......

Marvins AMD patcher also doesn´t works @ my system with 10.6.5. :(
Does anyone have the same problem with it?


Thx again & greetz 2 all

[wastez]

Hello,

Because the problem @ boot with flag arch=x86_64 i´ve to say that i got no kernelpanic but my computer just restarts...... :mad:
Any ideas????


Greetz

Should be boot without patched dyld (libsystemB.... files) too.
Have you tried to boot with flags arch=i386 -force64???

Actually I have the same problem. Because of that I was very happy to hear that this kernel should have on-the-fly-CPUID-patching. Not sure if this is really the case now? The last package at least patched the CPUIDs but as you can read in my previous post I am not sure either.

Hello i patched the cpuid with maxxuss patcher gui.
Here is the link for it http://osx86.co/f36/10-6-5-is-avaible-via-softwareupdate-t6711/page2.html it contains a lin for the tool and the cpuid.txt that you will need and all works without any troubles. :D

I´ve the same cpu that you have and i´m not able to boot with flag arch=x86_64 :'( but i don´t use chamelon 2 RC4. I use Chamelon 2 RC5 from kabyl (because of injection from my graphicscard)..... could that be the reason why it doesn´t work?
Did you try it with an other bootloader and if you try it does it work?

Thx and greetz

I had to revert back to Rc4, because with rc5 it just rebooted, so yes thats the reason. Did you try -force64?

[wastez]

Yes i´ve tried it.....
If i use arch=x86_64 my computer also restarts.....
The problem is that i really need this bootloader so that my graphicscard works without an enabler and work in 64 Bit...... Because the other way developed by netkas (aty_init) is just for 32 Bit......

Maybe the flag arch=x86_64 is renamed in RC5....
Would be really interessting because i want to boot into this mode. :(

Same Kernel Panic, even using the -notscsync flag, Azimutz has been talking about at InsanleyMac. But doesn't bother me that much; not going to use fat-binary Kernel anyway, as there is no x64 working chipset driver for me either. :D

Apart I am still hoping to see Kernel with fully working auto-patching sometime soon. :cool:

You can use my amd_insn_patcher to patch libSystem.dylib (dyld should get auto-patched but if it doesn't work after patching you can patch this with the tool too).
Next you need to rebuild your dyld shared cache with
sudo update_dyld_shared_cache
in Terminal and you should be set for running 32bit apps after a reboot.

[wastez]

@ andyvand

Does arch=x86_64 work only with chameleon 2 rc4?
I´ve rc5 and it is not possible to boot with flag arch=x86_64.......

What can i do?

Thx & greetz

[dawiinci]

I just got this KP while booting. It only happened two times. Usually it boots without problems.

See the photo attached. Sorry for the blurry quality.

Maybe the second one is clearer. This one happened on another system with the same patches. It even mentioned andyvand. It happened while resizing a partition in the disk utility. - Repairing now. ;)

[wastez]

Hello,

What i´ve to install to run sudo update_dyld_shared_cache?
Do i´ve to install xcode for it?

Thx and greetz

[dawiinci]

No, you don’t need to install Xcode. Everything else you need to patch it is explained here (http://osx86.co/f36/10-6-5-is-avaible-via-softwareupdate-t6711/post51373.html).

[wastez]

I tried arch=x86_64 with chameleon2 rc4 and it works.
The problem is that i really need rc 5 (because of my graphicscard)

What can i do that it will worK???

Greetz

[BanBlade]

I think i might have figured something out ppl that are having kp when using arch=x86_64 related to appleacpiplatform 1.3.5 its caused by APPLEATIATA.kext updateing it to this one http://osx86.co/f36/ati-ata-driver-optimized-for-snow-leopard-t4441/ fixed the kp for me true 64bit but my 32bit apps just crash even after patching everything but 64 bit apps run great any help on gettin the 32bit apps running would be greatly appreciated

chameleon 2.0 rc3 flicker inj
amd athlon 64 3800+
ati radeon 4650 1gb x9498
Mac OSX 10.6.5

[Grave35]

I do not understand something. AMD on the processor can make him work in the x64 rehearse and I'm very core? My processor is AMD 4200 + motherboard Asus M2n32-sli deluxe
archi=x32_x64 reboot

true 64bit but my 32bit apps just crash even after patching everything but 64 bit apps run great any help on gettin the 32bit apps running would be greatly appreciated

Same here!

[dawiinci]

Did you patch the libSystem.B.dylib and update the caches?

[Grave35]

I have on AMD for archi = x32_64 immediately restart

[BanBlade]

I did patch the libSystem.B.dylib still 32bit apps crash as soon as click the icon

[kabuu]

Thanks Andy for you work
I used Legacy Kernel 10.6.5 in 64 Bits with AMD sysenter trap patch on libSystem.B.dylib and works great, but in Starcraft II sometimes I get random crash
This (http://pastebin.com/f2EgY5BD) appears on Error Reporter of Starcraft II

Sorry for my bad English

[davisin666]

Adium + Growl 1.2.1 = BIG KERNEL PANIC

[opiniatre]

Good work running very smoothly with -arch=i386 -force64 (everything is fine except .h264 .mp4 files, the finder quits because of quickview).

Now if I could only get my AMD cpu temp !

Using the nawcom kernel I finally got steam working:

Hello,

Is this kernel based on the same like this?
Does anyone knows the differences between this two kernels?

It's a improved build which solves certain issues, he just made a new one which solves the vmware issue, exciting times for us amd users don't you think? ;)

[nestorespinoza]

with arch=x86_64 -force64 32b appz crash

with arch=i386 -force64 32b appz good

only userland... right?

Sure it is exciting. The kernels get better and better. Would be really interessting which issue is the reason why i can´t boot with flag arch=x86_64....
