This may sound a little newbieish but you mean the .kext files in the Extra folder created by Chameleon, right? Should i also remove the .mkext file?

Exact same problem here.

P35DS4 1.0 Bios F14
C2D E6750
4 Go DDR2 800
8800gts 320

i am running leopard for almost two years and it works perfectly (currently running 10.5.8 with Chameleon RC2 + custom DSDT.aml for audio + smbios.plist).

But with the SL GM 10A432 No matter what i do, i get KP when running snow leopard after a couple of minutes (sometimes 10-15-30 minutes). I did not had this problem with WDDC release...

* Kext used : dsmos, openhaltrestart, platfor UUID, NullCPUpowermanagement, IOAHCIblockstorageinjector, LegacyHDA (i tried with only dsmos and a DSDT.aml but KP again)

I tried differents things which does not solve the problem
*PC_EFI v9, v10, v10.1 v10.2
*Disabling OC
*Using several custom DSDT (with or without gfx/ethernet/audio)
*Removed some kexts (but I don't think it's a kext issue)...

Run DSDT Patcher GUI on the the same system on which you will be using the dsdt.aml.

I have a working Leo and non-working SnowLeo on the same hardware. If i use DSDT Patcher Gui does it harm my working Leo? Or anything i should know before trying?

No.

It does not change your system; it creates a folder with the necssary files.

You can take the dsdt file and copy it to whereever you want.

Thank you all but... You know, it wants to play hard, as usual, kernel panics still going on and on.

First i've created my own dsdt and nothing changed. KP'd on the first registration screen.
Then i've tried removing all kexts but dsmos, it KP'd again immediately after seeing gray apple logo.

Yeah i think it is kexts but i think i need very spesific kexts which will come in time... i suppose. And keep ur comments coming, thanks

Same exact problem here. When it started playing the intro I was so excited, but then BOOM!

And if I restart, it panics in a matter of seconds.

Whatever workaround you find, will probably also work with my system (and probably many others). So let's try and get this fixed.

I've been trying to fix this for 6 hours , to no avail

Any help is greatly appreciated.

If you boot into safe mode (-x kernel flag) you should be able to get to the desktop long enough to repair the extensions permissions (use kext utility for that) and repair the disk permissions (if you installed from within leopard 10.5 this will fail with the no installer packages error). Browse the other threads and you will see the workarounds that have popped up.

-x32 bit m8, seems like the only solution so far. I've been in 32bit + 30 mins without panics so...

I think its mobo related as some will need more kexts to run. I've got a feeling my GA-P35-DS3P needs proper kexts for 64bit.

I wonder if I should do another install from within SL, I highly doubt it will fix the panics though?

Just tried x64 safe mode again, here some facts:

- Kext Utility repair permissions WORKS
- Rebuild Extensions.mkext FAILS
- Spotlight does not work (is that safe mode related?)
- In Terminal sudo -s WORKS wihout package or other error

I got another panic when trying to repair permissions with terminal. I also havent checked disk utility for the package error. Will check now as last test for today.

Update: Alright, repair permissions works within Disk Utility but got another panic before it finished. No more UUID, Packages or other errors though. This is tested in safe mode (because panics happen a lot faster in normal boot)

I'm out of ideas for 64bit though so for now back to my old trusty 10.5.8
