First, big thanks to Andy for his great work on this, it is really amazing!
I could boot a fresh (unpatched) 10.6.4 install (10.6.0 + combo update) with this kernel on an AMD Athlon64 3200+ and it mostly works (even iTunes started) but there are some small problems:
- booting in 64bit (without arch=i386 or -x32 options) results in instant reboot (this is not a big problem for me as I have less than 4G RAM)
- booting without patcher_opts=2 results in kernel panic as others noted
- when it boots I saw some crashes and freezes randomly but generally it's very promissing.
I was trying to make power management working (OK, maybe that's too much for a start but I'd like my system run cooler). While installing the VoodooPower package I got a kernel panic during the finishing kextcache -update-volume / step (screenshot attached).
After resetting I got another kernel panic, looks like VoodooPower does not work for my system? (another screenshot attached).
I also have a strange problem with missing dates and times almost everywhere in the GUI (dates show right in the Terminal) and some graphics artifacts in some buttons. The video card is an Nvidia gForce 7600 GS, QE/CI works with Chameleon's GraphicsEnabler option after fixed _UID, One->Zero in DSDT (Gigabyte MB with nForce4 chipset). Third screenshot attached, circles show missing dates, arrows show graphics artifacts. It may have to do with the bootloader because Chameleon also seems to ignore the com.apple.Boot.plist in /Extra folder (I have to type boot options, but it reads DSDT.aml and smbios.plist from the same place). I have Chameleon v2.0-RC4_PCEFI-10.5_AsereBLN. Any ideas anyone about any of these?
