I grabbed that from my 10.6.2 MacBook. Think updating it from the machine would do it, though?

yeah I did the samething from my macbook pro and used it on my evga mobo machine and it worked

on another note I did a fresh install today on another machine I am building for a friend (same parts) and it worked on 10.6.0 and also after updating to 10.6.2

are you sure you have voodoo hda removed and any other audio kexts (that are not modded removed )

Yeah, I'm almost positive it's all gone. I just installed my motherboard, so I'm going to do a fresh install just to be sure.

Yeah, I didn't see it in my DSDT either, so there goes that theory. lol I guess I'll just keep trying and seeing if I get it.



........great, now I've got that showtunes song in my head from Land of the Lost.

**NOTE

upgrading to 10.6.2 if you use Final Cut Pro 7
unexpectedly quiting using the Log and Transfer problems with Cameras and iMovie camcorder import. AVCHD


UPDATE

Nvm, i found out the problem. Transfering AVCHD files, you need an intel-based mac, so you just need to edit your smbios.plist to the right specifications in order for it to work.

Intel-based mac SMBIOS.plist

Sound works natively with Airwalk's dsdt.aml and LegacyHDA.kext located in the EXTRA folder that is provided. Also you must have 10.6.2

First I have to thank you for this guide, because it is awesome and I now have a working Snow Leopard installation on a separate HD.

My current issue is trying to get this HD and my prior Windows 7 HD installation dual booting. I used a separate PC with a Leopard installation to follow this guide and setup a stand alone 500GB SL installation. It is formatted to GPT and has Chameleon installed. If I only have this HD installed in my machine it boots into SL and works great. As soon as I reconnect my Win 7 MBR HD, Chameleon doesn't come up and it boots into Windows 7.

I've tried various things, but I'm apparently missing something or doing something wrong.

I've tried putting my Win 7 MBR HD in my Leopard PC and installing Chameleon on that using the manual instructions, but I quickly ran into an issue where there is already a Boot directory, which conflicted with me putting the boot file on the disk. It's possible this has left me in a bad state, however, I did use the Win 7 DVD to repair after that failed to startup.

I've tried using easyBCD to create a mac entry in my windows 7 boot loader, but that failed to load my second HD. The current version doesn't apparently let you specify which disk it is on and assumes it is on C:\? I'm guessing that could be the issue here.

I've tried putting bootthink on my window 7 drive. It starts up, but fails to recognize my SL drive. I'm not certain why this is.

Next, I read that simply marking the MBR inactive might let Chameleon boot up, so I used GParted Live to mark MBR non-boot, but that resulted in :

boot0: testing
boot0: testing
boot0: error

For now, I'm probably going to go back into GParted and mark the MBR bootable again just to fix my windows 7 disk, but I would really like to get this working with both drives.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
