thanks :-)

And I think Megaargon will not hate me for one more day ... (or two ... or maybe three ...)

:-)

woooow....not too many days please ;)

what you have to do now? which works and which not, can you create a little list before you go to sleep or get the next hughe cup of very heavy coffee?

Well, I think that we can be veeery happy even if Zeph do that release for the weekend...don't forget that he's trying to get a nice smooth install on all our computers, and he can do trial-and-error only on his own computer...so he si doing a biiig job and we should let him do it the way he wants it...it is the least what he deserves..

So, I'll just sit back and continue to wait patiently for Zeph to do his work the way he wants it to be done, and than be very happy when he does the release :))

Thank you Zeph!!

i totally agree to this! TOTALLY!

Thank you Zeph!!

btw: Zeph, did you mean its a good idea to create a small beta for our testers, so they can test it on other amd machines and give you feedback for a smoother dvd?

- I get the "error 35" while booting the dvd thus the installer log is full with lines concerning this error and is not easy readable (and I tried everything to fix this issue: IONetworkingFamily ... etc)

- I still have the "Unable to load Info.plist exceptions" which appears in Terminal if you launch it while using your system.
(ex: You opened your Terminal to repair some permissions but didn't close it and in the same time if you opened some others apps, this message will appear in the opened Terminal with a $%+!? sound .)

- Some issue remains with IOKit prolly because of the new System.kext.

And maybe there are others things to do but I don't know at the moment

Oh damn I forgot to finish the upload of the modified 10.5.2 update ... Puttabong will whip me until Death follows !

Zeph i searched a little using google for the error35 using this search string with google "leopard boot error 35" and got this -> http://forum.osx86scene.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2984
which means this -> -bash-3.2# diskutil list
2007-11-05 18:46:20.839 diskutil[179:10b] _CFGetHostUUIDString: unable to determine UUID for host. Error: 35
2007-11-05 18:46:20.925 DiskManagementTool[180:10b] _CFGetHostUUIDString: unable to determine UUID for host. Error: 35

i am willing to search a little more for you to help you with your work, but i dont know if you are happy about my help or not.

got this too:

[update] Time machine now works OK with the default ToH IONetworking . . do you see the traditional:

“CFGetHostUUIDString: unable to determine UUID for host. Error: 35? error in console?

it seams the error is from everywhere of IONetworking!?

Yes I got this error ... And I managed to fix it several times with the appropriate IONetworking kext ...

Any luck with the new AMD chipsets?

This workaround will help you to remove the "_CFGetHostUUIDString: unable to determine UUID for host. Error: 35" error.

1.) BACKUP your /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
2.) Open /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
3.) ADD AFTER <string>Ethernet</string></dict> the following:
<dict>
<key>BSD Name</key>
<string>en3</string>
<key>IOBuiltin</key>
<false/>
<key>IOInterfaceType</key>
<integer>6</integer>
<key>IOInterfaceUnit</key>
<integer>3</integer>
<key>IOLocation</key>
<string></string>
<key>IOMACAddress</key>
<data>
ABbPoF5V
</data>
<key>IOPathMatch</key>
<string>IOService:/AppleACPIPlatformExpert/PCI0@0/AppleACPIPCI/P0P3@1C,2/
IOPCI2PCIBridge/pci14e4,4311@0/AirPort_Brcm43xx/IO80211Interface</string>
<key>SCNetworkInterfaceType</key>
<string>IEEE80211</string>
</dict>
4.) IF you have more than 3 interfaces or there is an "en3" interface change it to "en4" or a higher number, don't forget to change this "<integer>3</integer>" to "<integer>4</integer>".
5.) You need to REBOOT
6.) If this work for you please tell me.
7.) If this workaround did not work please provide your system.log and your NetworkInterfaces.plist.

Why does this error happen?
Well at looking at the source code of the configd there is a plugin "InterfaceNamer" it seams the plugin will always skip interfaces
that are IOBuiltin = false. The "<key>IOBuiltin</key>" cannot be changed because the plugin will check and restore it on next boot.
But it does not check if wireless interfaces <key>SCNetworkInterfaceType</key><string>IEEE80211</string> are IOBuiltin.
Like I say this is only a workaround and there will be more need of testing.
