Booting 10.5.6 with only one kext added!

EncryptedSoul · #1 12-20-2008, 06:15 PM

The title say's it all. It's kinda bragging a bit but I had to shout it out.
Without using my EFI project, yet using Darwin(no efi) I am still able to boot Leopard with adding only one kext.(AppleDecrypt)
It's as close to Vanilla as possible without using EFI modules....

Also, no need to have a SMBIOS Enabler, I run all Intel, so using the ITK(no need for DSDT.aml), I'm able to specifiy full SMBIOS, HPET IRQ, HDEF Audio Signiture's from embedded EEPROM.(motherboard firmware - Leopard list's it in System Profiler)
This thread is to insure there is a way to further compatibility with Mac OS X and hardware. The dsdt.aml patch is useful, but doesn't allow full compatibility. It's just another "patch" instead of a solution......
Most motherboard vendor's do not completely fill out the SMBIOS info, which is why your system profiler results lack proper info while using a vanilla AppleSMBIOS.kext...

Some success using DMICFG.EXE is achieved, but DMICFG.EXE only fully work's on older board's with a relative bios.(AWARD BIOS) The thread is here:

http://omnsdsdtfix.proboards.com/ind...splay&thread=6

I created my BIOS on my Mac using CrossOver, the ITK and Framework.

If anyone want's me to Customize their Intel BIOS, just let me know.

Intel is really achieving alot with their ITK and Framework, heck it's what Apple used to create their EFI and BIOS Emulator for BootCamp!

Here is my system profiler printout.

This is a known method, but thanks for sharing the link to the guide!

I hadn't seen this before and I'm interested how does your gma950 work do you get artifacts, also what about audio does that work or do you still need extra kexts?

Editing DMI strings will allow you to use the vanilla SMBIOS, it won't give you audio / video. You can also hardcode these strings in a special chameleon version by fassl if I remember correctly.

Ianxxx · #5 12-22-2008, 10:31 AM

Are there any other advantages?
And can someone point me to files for editing bios

EncryptedSoul · #6 12-22-2008, 09:39 PM

Audio work's out of the box now with all vanilla kext's.

When working with the ITK, and customizing AMI/DMI with Framework toolkit, you can change audio sig's from AZAL to HDEF. This isn't possible with using the DSDT.aml way that is refered to above.

I have a completely custom BIOS, with a correctly filled out SMBIOS. I also have achieved native HDEF sound with changing AZAL to HDEF in my ITK. Video, I am looking into and it isn't looking good. We will alway's have artifact's using Intel GMA950 without using a UGA driver on boot, which you need real EFI for!

If you have an newer Intel board, I can prolly help you greatly.

I have a ga-p35-ds3l, would be grateful if you could give me tools and info on how to do this. Thanks

EncryptedSoul,

do you think you can modify this BIOS below?

Hi, I have the same motherboard (D945GCNL), I have installed retail 10.5 dvd and updated to 10.5.6 with only one kext - AppleDecrypt. Not using DSDT. Booting with PCEFI v.8. I've no problem with AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext. But the audio doesn't work, and also no restart. Also there is TimeMachine problem, but i don't really care about it.

If you could get audio without patch its great! How did you achieve that ? Would really appreciate if you could provide me the details of the procedure to do with ITK...

Thank you

You have to download the newest bios update. Download the iFlash version of your bios. Using the ITK, you need to change Intel Azalia High Definition Audio to High Definition Audio. Or abbreviate it to HDEF. It's alot faster changing it with dmicfg, but that's a hit or miss, and if done incorrectly, it can damage the EEPROM and leave it in a read-only state....
