Install a bootloader
You need to install Chameleon bootloader. Use the search function above. I use release candidate 5 (RC5) but any version would likely work. There are many bootloaders available now. Be careful after bootloader installation, make sure your kernel (mine is mach_kernel legacy) and "Boot" is in place in the root directory, make sure the .kext files you need are in the /extra folder. The kernel that is working for your current boot must be in place, the installer for chameleon that I have installs a vanilla kernel automatically in root and that hoses my system after reboot.
listen to this caution: backup your kernel, boot and extra folder (if you have one) before chameleon installation. Follow the instructions in the threads you find in the search, lots of great write-ups there. |

yep, there are tons of tutorial for installing SL on AMD.
As far as Hazard on AMD goes, it works best when you choose blacknight kernel with PC-EFO10.5 bootloader first when installing. with proper option selection, it will most likely boot without the need of other boot CD, then run chameleon update (any version from RC5 will work) |

Easiest way to replace boot file is to delete the boot file from the root, then copy / paste with new boot. Can't replace the boot file.

I'm sorry, give me a 8 hours of sleep, and I'll help you tomorrow. You are moving the wrong file *versions* into place. I need to get a rapidshare account setup and I'll post my system files and everything there for you. I'm not claiming to have all of the answers for your system, mine may be different than yours but I do have three of these osx_amd64 machines fired up and I think we can get your chameleon bootloader working.
First, when you boot without the legacy cd in your cd-drive, what do you see on the screen? Are you getting the green lizard? AMD is sometimes more tricky. ![]() |

http://www.mediafire.com/?3h53c803hctmdh4 the files above may work for you. You need to investigate how to edit the com.apple.Boot.plist file so it works with your system. I would advise removing the "Graphics Mode = 1600x900" from the Boot.plist boot flags, as my 23" monitor may be a little a bigger than yours. so all you do is drop the mach_kernel (xnu Darwin 9.5 Kernel) into your root directory, my "boot" file into your root directory, and my "extra" folder into your root directory. If you installed chameleon correctly, that should be it. You may need more or different kext files in your "extra/extensions" folder as your system may require different drivers than mine. here is how chameleon works as I understand it... the bootloader installs some instructions into a small partition in the master boot record (MBR) which are activated at boot time. these instructions access the extra folder, boot.plist and smbios in the root directory and basically trick the kernel into thinking it was booted from EFI. The Kext files from the extra folder load first in chameleon (and kind of provides a base for the kernel to operate in) these are the kexts that trick the system and provide power management, sleep etc. The kernel takes the information from boot.plist file, and smbios and boots your system using the information inside the files as variables to run the OS (what ram you have, what processor, what fsb speeds etc). That's how I understand it anyway, and it seems to have worked for me this long. I have another suggestion for you, always boot with the boot flag "-v" for verbose, it will tell you what is loading and where your system is hanging. the photo that you posted earlier is really no use to anyone, but the line (example only) "eth0 linked, no flow control" with a kernel panic could tell you that the kext file for your ethernet, or the kext loading after your ethernet (usually audio) is hosing your boot. You then need to replace your audio kext or try a different ethernet kext. Your English is fine and more coherent than many of the users around here (that's not a dig towards anybody in particular) LOL. What is your native language... I have a website that needs some translation, could you help? ![]() |
