Note Leopard 10.5 Voodoo / XNU Kernel

Voodoo Issue...

Ok after I fixed my Mac booting(I needed to boot using the new kernel and specify which one) how do I make this permanent? Without having to type mach_kernel.voodoo -v everytime.

Field Note #1 @eMatoS 2009-05-23

You'll have to edit com.apple.boot.plist that as you're using chameleon 2RC1 is located in /Extra.
Inside that plist look for this:

<key>Kernel</key>
<string>mach_kernel</string>

And change mach_kernel for mach_kernel.voodoo.

Good luck!
