Field Note #1 @fredouille 2009-10-09

thank you very much andy

I just installed your Applesmbios.kext and hardware is recognized properly
( except the CPU type of course, cause it's a quad !) without patching the smbios.plist
I could notice that boot is much faster of almost 10 seconds ! Do you believe it is possible or it's just a coincidence ?

Thank you man

Field Note #2 @thorazine74 2009-10-09

If you have chameleon with smbios patching, unless you explicitly disabled it in the boot.plist, smbios is still being patched by chameleon even if you delete the smbios.plist.

Field Note #3 @miliuco 2009-10-17

Thorazine74: gracias por la info... but how can I disable smbios patching in boot.plist?

Andy: your SMBIOS works very well in my system, without smbios.plist in /Extra.
Is it a good idea to change the UUID-key in Info.plist by the right UUID of the SL volume? If yes, must I change also the UUID-data-key value? Thanks.

Hi, please, tell my how to create AppleSMBIOS.kext from your upload source files of applesmbios SNOW.

@miliucoThorazine74: gracias por la info... but how can I disable smbios patching in boot.plist?

Without a SMBIOS.plist Chameleon stills do smbios patching with default values from MacPro2,1.
You can try putting this in boot.plist so chameleon doesnt do any smbios patching at all:

    <key>SMBIOSdefaults</key>
    <string>n</string>

Gracias, Thorazine74, I didn't have read the howto of Chameleon2 RC.
