Hi to all,
this is my configuration : ASUS M3A32-MVP Deluxe/WiFi-AP Chipset 790FX/SB600 AMD Phenom 9500 quad-core processor RAM 4Gb Kingston DDR800 ATI 1950Pro 256Mb Seagate 250Gb PATA (Leopard) Maxtor 320Gb SATA2 (Windows) Installed System: Leopard 10.5.2 (from Zephyroth) Kernel 9.2.0 SB600 kext My problem is that my system freeze everytime I start an application that use a lot of hard disk read/write... Some example: client torrent, amule, parallels, stuffit... It doesn't give me a real kernel panic, but freeze only and I can do nothing, only reboot... I've read that someone has copied some kext from 10.5.1, but it doesn't work for me... I've tried also to install new AppleVIAATA.kext, IOATAFamily.kext, IONetworkingFamily.kext, AppleACPIPlatform.kext, AppleSMBIOS.kext and AppleOnboardPCATA.kext, but nothing changes... Can enyone help me?... Thanks PS: Excuse me for my english |

maybe ur right, but maybe the problem is in the ethernet or HD controller, you can try this, edit the apple.com.boot.plist and add this line under kernel flags
"maxmem=3072" (without the quotes) if the system is stable the remap memory option is the problem, this happens with 32 bit systems and 4gb |

what is the command in the term to do this??
edit nevermind found it sudo -s (enter your password when prompted) cd /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration nano com.apple.Boot.plist |

with this, you are fixing the max memory to 3gb, the system sees 4gb but only uses 3gb

Thank you so much guys...
Bhast2, you win the bet... The problem was really the 4gb of ram... The option "maxmem=3072" in com.apple.Boot.plist solved everything... Thanks 💡 Deploy cloud instances seamlessly on DigitalOcean. Free credits ($100) for InfMac readers. |
