Yes, indeedy, as I found out when trying to use OSX86Tools to change the readout and having nothing happen, then reading the bit of code you posted and saying DOH! *facepalm*
Is there some non-aesthetic reason for this change from beta 2? J/W, because it would be nice if it were still open to modification. No biggie if you have reasons not to leave it that way. It's just aesthetics, after all.

Does it matter which System.kext I am using when testing RC?
If so which is the one recommended?

Thanks

No. Yes. Yes. You're welcome.No. Yes. Yes. You're welcome.

self-explanatory. I would use the system.kext file provided by Rogue in the beta2c thread though just to be on the safe side.

Me too... using Rogue kexts, but my machine is seen as imac 7.1...
Anyway, this kernel seems rocks... stable and speedy.
Boot time seems to be the same.

also... get the IntelCPUPMDisabler.kext so the 10.5.5 apple update (non-patched) won't cause kernel panics.

so..... i´ve installed the voodoo kernel rc1 with the install method 2. i edit my boot.plist to mach_kernel.voodoo. i replaced the system.kext with the 9.5.0 system.kext file provided by Rogue in the beta2c thread, installed the IntelCPUPMDisabler.kext, AppleSMBIOSEFI.kext and restarted. LawlessPPC 10.5.4 works fine with the new kernel.

in the next step i installed the apple software update 10.5.5. but after a restart i get the error message:

Code:

WARNING: sandbox_init error Could not set Mach lookup policy for service 
com.apple.bsd.dirhelper err=1100Could not set Mach lookup policy for service 
com.apple.distributed_notifications.2 err=1100Could not set Mach lookup policy

com.apple.mDNSResponderHelper err=1100Could not set Mach lookup policy for service 
com.apple.SecurityServer err=1100Could not set Mach lookup policy for service 
com.apple.SystemConfiguration.configd er

i tried to boot with the flags -v -x -f and leopard starts to the point where i can see the blue sreen and then stops.

i have the same error with the iDeneb v1.3 10.5.5

what´s the problem? i hope anybody can help me and sorry for my english again.

sounds like a graphics error... I think you might need to remove (or at least move) the GeForce kexts from /System/Library/Extensions/ folder. boot with the boot flag "-s"

Code:

/sbin/mount -uw /
rm -Rf /System/Library/Extensions/GeForce*
rm -Rf /System/Library/Extensions.mkext
reboot

Now you'll need to fix your graphics (EFI or injector kexts)

Do you have dsmos.kext or AppleDecrypt.kext installed? If not, install one of those.
