What can happen if you update? start over again thats it, this is the funny thing about this, and of course that you can update as well you are using vanilla kernel

So, I did the install following this fantastic guide (thanks to all involved) and everything was working great (video, audio, bonjour, sleep, the whole nine yards)! When the 10.6.2 update came out, I cloned my install to a different partition to play with. After following the netkas suggestions, I have some unusual results. First, 10.6.2 will only boot with the -f option; whenever I do not do that, I get an immediate KP. Second even when I boot with -f, I do not have functional audio, even though I'm using the same LeagacyALC883 kext that worked with 10.6.1. One thing I've noticed is that in my working install (10.6.1), there is an an Extensions.mkext in my /Extra folder, but this does not exist in the 10.6.6 install. Could this be part of the problem, and how should I go about fixing it? Thanks again.

Well, I think I've got it fixed. Amazing what you can do when you read the instructions! I first used mkext tool to make an Extensions.mkext of the extensions in the /Extra/Extensions folder, but that didn't solve the problem. But, after re-reading the guide, I ran the pfix utility as root, and it cleaned out the system caches as well as fixing permissions, and now everything is working OK! Thanks again for the great guide!

anyone have some instructions to dual boot chamelion and windows7 on the same drive ? ive spent days following different instructions, and reinstalling windows7/leopard, i think ill just ask here.

oh everything else in the first post works, i just need to figure out how to dual boot off 1 hard drive.

The latest version of ubuntu will not only mult-boot but also detect the different OS installs for you I have a posting about it earlier.

You have to change the grub.cfg for hackintosh as I point out in that reply since grub2 assumes it is a real mac.

verified on 2 hard drives, i simply went to the chameleon site, downloaded the latest version and followed the instructions.

Yes, and all went fine. http://netkas.org/?p=315

Just be sure to remove sleepenabler.kext before you update to 10.6.2 and update to the new sleepenabler.kext listed on Netkas' page after updating to 10.6.2

Sound was tricky for me. I finally got it by
(a) making sure I rebuilt the /Extra/Extensions.mkext after having added the sound kext to the CustomeExtensions folder.

(b) Making sure that the audio output configuration was for "Internal Speakers".

(c) In System Profiler:

No audio in the system profiler implies you don't have the correct BIOS settings.

Less than 5 lines implies that you have correct BIOS settings but the wrong kext or the kext was not loaded. Boot with a -v -x to see what is going on.

Use lspci (a version exists in OSX86Tools to see what you actually have.

A large number of lines (>8) everything is loaded properly. Check (b)

Please look for my post sometime earlier; I can't get to my Mac right now as my daughter has stolen it from me

It's finally installing now.

Problem I had... I updated my macbook to 10.6.0 from Tiger, which I was using to create the install on my external HDD. I had a partition made for Mac OS X already, reformatted it via Disk Utility during installation on my Hackintosh/Win7 Dual Boot to Mac Extended Journal or whatever it is...

So now it's installing on that partition and rather fast. We'll see how the system is working once it's done.

Problem was, Tiger wasn't able to run the ES2L Kit properly, I believe. Gotta do it from a version of Leopard.

Thanks for the ideas LatinoGuy. Or should I say, Gracias, Amigo?

Here's a little followup hiccup I am having.

When trying to boot up, I got a "operating system missing" error from my BIOS. So I have to repair windows via the install disc, then I can use windows' boot manager to select an operating system. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9s6Cesg_j8)
(updating this post as I go along, I am so close!)

If anything, I will just reinstall windows7. No biggie, I just installed it the other day. I think I also saw somewhere that you should instal OS X first if you're going to dual boot with windows 7.

EDIT:::::: Need to reinstall Windows 7 on same partition. That's okay. It's been fun. Next will be trying to boot into OS X. WooHoo.
