you need the time machine update for 9C7010.

Yep, I'm having the same problem too - Kernel Panic on reboot. No amount of permission repair can fix the problem. I'm wondering if the Time Machine update is a prerequisite for this Kernel to be used?

working fine here. system seems alot smoother. i havent done the timemachine update..

bhast2 04-01-2008 03:38 AM

Don't do the Timemachine Update it totally crashed my system

I ran the update no problems but with pacifist -kernel & system.kext. But then had to run marvins and get patches before reboot.
But I assure you update installs fine without kernel.What it does is another matter!

spy974 04-01-2008 04:51 AM

Amazing. It works.
Thanks a lot.
Just one thing : it tells me that I have one core. Is there a way I can know if the cores are used ?

Thanks,

WinLinMac01 04-01-2008 05:24 AM

Thanks for warning us in advance.

@thanks to all who told me about the kernel update process. ;-)

Is it just my or did anybody else notice that there system fan now runs all the time after installing this???
I just installed it on my laptop and now my fan seems to be on alot more??? Could just be me!

im having problems with the update....
Yes, with this kernel system is a bit faster, but i cant boot in normal mode, only with -v -f

I get a kernel panic if i boot in normal mode...

-v -f shouldnt change that, "-v -f" only tells it to show what normally loads in the background, -f forces extension loading and kernel caching i believe, i may be wrong.
So your still in normal mode once booted, just without the Apple Loading screen at boot.

I have all updates - including time machine update applied, i just dont use time machine though.

how did you install the time machine update???

bajanboy 04-01-2008 05:34 PM

I am very curious that some people are reporting that the kernel 9.2.2 and system.kext patch for AMD works. I have updated my perfectly working system and it broke it(wont boot, white apple screen with spinning gear). Well I yanked it out and I'm back to normal.

Lessons learned: If it aint broke, dont fix it ! LOL

Oh, btw...it has to be blessed Zephyroth or eddie11c before I use anything again !

vele 04-01-2008 07:17 PM

Do i need 10.5.2 update before installing the new 9.2.2 and System.kext or can I do it straight from 10.5.1

vele 04-01-2008 07:19 PM

One more question. Is sleep working with this kernel?

ka911 04-01-2008 08:06 PM

here how I install it!
unzip the download file, then rename mach_922 to mach_kernel and use pcwiz's kernel to install it
use kext helper b7 to install System.kext (I did run kext permission for mach_kernel if need it)
reboot
and now I'm running 9.2.2 with out problem! this update fix my issue with reboot and shutdown.

BUT I see only 1 Core with full core speed of 2.6Ghz. I have Dual-core 2.6 GHz AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ processor. I don't see any problem sofar, and I don't know if my Leo read 1 core it will make any different!

althon 04-02-2008 12:36 AM

Is this kernel PC_EFI only?
Couse I'm without EFI and when I use this kernel I get instant reboot system.

mrburns05 04-02-2008 04:43 AM

i installed time machine update with software update, then pathed it in tiger, and replaced dsmos.kext, system.kext, and mach_kernel

bhast2 04-02-2008 05:36 AM

got all the updates now
even the time machine one
system seems alot faster

WinLinMac01 04-02-2008 05:52 AM

WOW, that's good to hear. Thanks for trying. Now its my turn. ;-)

before you restart you must run marvin's amd utility and decrypt the files
than put patches on your desktop
than boot -s
than type
mount -uw /
cd /users/yourusername/desktop/patches
./replace.sh
./patcher cpuid.txt
quit
reboot

this is the patches folder for time machine update

ludacrisvp 04-02-2008 06:50 AM

Properly installed the 9.2.2 kernel and system.kext and my system just hangs on boot.
I can boot with the 9.2.2 kext with my 9.2.0 kernel but my time machine doesnt work properly with either system.kext.
It is making backups but i cannot enter time machine it just crashes finder.
Any Ideas?

WinLinMac01 04-02-2008 07:19 AM

thanks again. =)

after downloading patches and following guide above i am now running leopard on my AMD with time machine update and 9.2.2 kernel

bhast2 04-02-2008 08:52 AM

glad it worked

Snow 04-02-2008 12:38 PM

:(

I messed up my system yesterday cause of kernel update. Now in the new install I figured I'll do this the proper way.

- Update system.kext with kext helper
- Update Kernel with kernel helper (or whatever its called)
- To make sure repair permissions for system.kext
- To make very sure set permission to kernel.

And now my system boots to Firewire message and then it halts without error and the harddrive shuts down.
I tried booting with -v -f to no use. WTF is up with that. If I have to do another reinstall I will go insane. This is windows all over, even getting worse, a lot worse.

Any help is very very very appreciated. Goddamnit

Snow 04-02-2008 01:02 PM

Is it possible to fix Leo from within Tiger?

That would make things a lot easier now and in the future.

Thx

bhast2 04-02-2008 02:34 PM

yes you can fix leo with tiger just repair permissions
after your done

Snow 04-02-2008 03:31 PM

Didnt work bud, Im now looking at another reinstall, wonderfull. Ya gotta love OSX on AMD!
Oh, shall I have another go at the new kernel? I guess not :/

bhast2 04-02-2008 03:49 PM

how are you installing the new kernel and kext files??

Snow 04-02-2008 04:00 PM

method described above. To be sure I set permissions after using kext helper and kernel installer.

Could someone tell me how you can properly recover from a panic or non bootable OS within Tiger or DVD. I don't think it's even possible right?

I didn't get a panic so this is another issue happening here.

bajanboy 04-02-2008 05:40 PM

It seem that a lot of people are having problems with the new mach_kernel 9.2.2 and system.kext,
on the other hand some said that they were able to get it working. I myself have tried it and it
did not work for me. What is so confusing here are the bits-and-peices of information from the
people who claim to having it working. Can someone who has it working write in clear steps what
they did and tell the rest of us what system hardware they are using because I think this is related
to system hardware configuration rather than the new kernel upgrade itself.

Cheers !!

YamatoHD 04-02-2008 06:44 PM

It works perfectly for me, i have just one tiny trouble, cant boot in normal mode (getting kernel panic)

Can boot only with "-v -f"

creative_ 04-02-2008 08:26 PM

I have the same problem since yesterday dunno why :( can only boot with "-f"

wierd, what cpu do you guys have?

mines been fine, i have an Athlon64 X2 3800+ (socket 939)

YamatoHD 04-03-2008 06:16 PM

mine is Athlon64 X2 4000+ (socket AM2)

Puttabong 04-03-2008 06:21 PM

Athlon 64 X2 4200+ (Socket 939), The Kernel works fine here :-)

I boot with -v only!

Voyn1x 04-03-2008 11:59 PM

Okay guys i've now fixed the panic i was having with this kernel.

My guess is that everyone who is having issues has the Xcode Developer Tools installed. If so follow these instructions:

http://mac.kbot.de/kernel-panic-after-installing-xcode-on-osx86/#more-91

After removing the CHUD kexts it booted fine for me. I have no idea why it worked with the 9.2.0 kernel and not 9.2.2 though...

Hope this helps others :)

eddie11c 04-04-2008 12:32 AM

This kernel does not work on my AMD, when it boots it says 64bit enabled then halts soon after it gets the boot device.

R0GUE 04-04-2008 04:29 AM

Here's a small update:
I removed the Chud kexts and now have the 9.2.2 Kernel working, however, it won't work if I use the System.kext (9.2.2) that came with it. Initially I was getting an AppleNForceATA.kext error on boot, so I rebooted into single user mode and put back the 9.2.0 System.kext and now have a bootable system. So far so good...

emaxxx 04-04-2008 04:46 AM

With 9.2.2 "About this mac" isn't working for me. I also have problems with restart or shutdown, they only works from command line into Terminal.
Can anyone help about this issue?

Snow 04-04-2008 11:44 AM

I had kernel panics before but now I'm good.

Running 9.2.2 here but haven't updated the system.kext yet so this might be the cause of panic and crashes.
About this mac works here, profiler shows only 1 core but activity monitor shows 2 cores running so all good.

Eddie, I'm using your Leo4all v2 release (which is great btw) so I don't know why it's not working for you, try without the system.kext.

Good luck!

YamatoHD 04-04-2008 02:12 PM

no, i dont have xcode installed, but i can boot only with -f

peppi 04-04-2008 11:41 PM

-f means force to load kext, so it loads the new system. kext i guess.
Shure you deleted extentions.kext to remove the cache?
Maybe it will work afterwards without -f

peppi 04-04-2008 11:44 PM

- amd64 SSE3

With my System no way to run the new kernel.

kernel + system.kext -> panic
kernel + old system.kext -> panic
old kernel + system.kext -> panic
(i have 2 systems, exchanging files and repair permissions + marvin from leo2 on leo1, so no handling mistake)
ill stay with the old one then...
