also, when specifying the kernel in the com.apple.Boot.plist file I used the following:
Quote:
<key>Kernel</key>
<string>bt(0,1)/mach_kernel</string> (or you could use "bt(0,1)/mach_kernel.voodoo" but you won't get vmware fusion support)
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string>-v boot-uuid=**my HD/Flash Drive UUID here**</string>
<key>Timeout</key>
<string>3</string>
<key>device-properties</key>
<string>**my GFX hex here**</string>
you don't have to make any modifications to the installer volume. Simply use the Voodoo Kernel, a Decrypter, your chipset kext, the IntelCPUPMDisabler kext (I do this for redundancy), and AppleSMBIOSEFI kext all placed in your EFI partition's Extensions folder. This allows the installer to boot up and install to your Hard Drive.
