I'm using Chameleon 2 RC3 currently. I may have to move to a beta PC EFI to get my Radeon 4670 running.

You have two "com.apple.Boot.plist" one located in /Extra and one located in /SnowVolume/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/
Did you checked both ? Also, if you are using chameleon rc3 you can add
this :
Code:
<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
<string>y</string>
to your com.apple.Boot.plist and let the bootloader detect your graphic card.

Thanks. The EFI strings were in /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/. I copied them to the Boot.plist in my /Extra folder as well. Not sure how these are read so I tried to cover both bases.
(Mostly did this due to panics in 64-bit mode from GeForce....kext and NVDAN.... kexts. Copying the device string didn't help or hurt.

sudo kextcache -v 1 -t -l -m /Volumes/EFI/Extra/Extensions.mkext /Volumes/EFI/Extra/Extensions will give you a permission error only on those kext that you add or modified isn't it?
You can solve that by moving the kexts that you want to add or modify in
/Volumes/EFI/System/Library/Extensions/
chown and chmod them, repair disk permissions with Disk Utility ( or with terminal since you've just chmod and chowned):
Code:
diskutil repairpermissions /Volumes/EFI
and then
sudo kextcache -v 1 -t -l -m /Volumes/EFI/Extra/Extensions.mkext /Volumes/EFI/System/Library/Extensions should work.
OR if you have Chameleon RC3 installed put the kexts in /Extra/Extensions or /System/Library/Extensions and reboot with -f option

This was something different but your comments lead me in the right direction. I read the man page on diskutil and found an enableownership flag that fixed the issue.
Since posting I've applied the RTC clock fix to my DSDT and the Time Machine fix. The sleep fix appears confusing but I think I can work it out by comparing others DSDT.dsl files. I'm not sure about Speedstep.
I tried to install my 4670 but got errors and put up a post on insanelymac hoping netkas will see it and comment.
Thanks again.
