Having trouble booting into 64-bit mode.
Anyone have any idea why I can't boot into 64-bit mode, my specs are in my signature and I am using the mach_kernel.test7 kernel. I have tried -x64 and "arch=x86_64" I know the cpu will run a 64-bit OS because I used to use Ubuntu x86_64…

You can't boot SL 64-Bit Kernel that way.
Reason 1: modbin test7 Kernel is i386 build only

I am having trouble to boot into my hackintosh in 64-bit mode. Also I am unable to use resolution more than 1024x768. I have been trying to fix these two issues for quiet a long time without any luck.
