Just joined the forum, hello :)
I've got 10.6.7 rocking in a VM and I thought I'd just bump the thread for ol' lion. So any progress to report getting it onto AMD? Cheers :D |

Not new :( |

If it´s working we can say for sure that the older AMD´s will never work cause missing SSSE3 instructions..... So have anybody tried it with them???? @AnV Is there a way to write a SSSE3 Emulator? |
There are ways to emulate cpu extensions, so yes, it could be possible.
Personally I'm a bit puzzled about the fact I cant run osx86 at the moment because snow leo doesnt support the gtx 550 ti. :( |
Is there any more news on this?
Seems things have gone silent on this issue now. :'( |
I am interested also.
|
Its just easier to upgrade to Intel, like I have recently and I just love it! Of course my AMD wasn't working correctly for me, so I upgraded. Also Snow Leopard is fine to run at this time, Lion is just like SL with some ios features, but I had to upgrade because Lion supports my new hardware much better than Snow Leopard.
|
Snow Leopards fine for time being. I'll stick with Amd because they're cheaper and just as good.

I have a feeling kernel for AMD for Lion might come out.... |
I got Xcode 4.2 on SL 10.6.8 so I stop the Lion pursuit on my AMD :P

Xcode 4.2 for SL
Step 1:
Xcode 4.2 for SL Code:
http://adcdownload.apple.com/Developer_Tools/xcode_4.2_for_snow_leopard/xcode_4.2_for_snow_leopard.dmg Then to upgrade iOS 5.1 download this and install image but DO NOT install it: Code:
http://adcdownload.apple.com/Developer_Tools/xcode_4.3.1_for_lion/xcode_4.3.1_for_lion.dmg Code:
sudo cp -R /Volumes/Xcode/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS5.1.sdk /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/ |

Next up is a Intel CPU as I'm getting gray hair with Windows, lol :-/ |
Still no progress on AMD kernel for Lion...... anxiously waiting.

I really hope the devs crack this one because I have a Radeon 6970 which is only supported with Lion.

Lion Kernel for AMD
WoW, if the picture is real....
Would you mind uploading the kernel for us? |

How do you did it??? Please, post links dude :) |
This screenshot looks pretty authentic - not look like trolling. :cool:

Hey dude! Great work. :) Bad thing is that a lot of apps on Lion are no more 32-Bit supported, including Finder - like it can be seen on your screenshot. If some function could be added, that does like -force64 in prior Legacy/Voodoo Kernel, you would have made it. Otherwise: There is the possibility to use 32-Bit Finder from Dev-Build 11A380 on GM / 11A511 This way I have working 10.7.0 on non-64-Bit CPU Atom N270 - any later Build does no longer work with this method. :-| If we could get a fully working 32-Bit Lion on AMD via this way, this would not be as great, but still pretty cool... Anyhow: We are looking forward to you keeping us posted!! ;) |

My mach_kernel for amd with Family 0x15 or 0x16 and model 0x6 ! See the Video LION ! |

Guys do you think my system will work on Lion?
Motherboard: Nvidia MCP65M AMD Hammer Graphic Card: Nvidia GeForce 8400M GS 256mb Ram: 3 GB |

Problem is that his Kernel has not enabled 64-Bit mode at all (it is booting pure 32-Bit legacy mode) In Lion there is no more 32-Bit code in a lot of Apps like Finder, Launchpad etc Absolutely no way to make them work unless 64-Bit support is enabled, like when you were using -force64 flag at Snow Leopard Kernel Patch. |
Quote:
Should olny version ! |
Please try it is mach_kernel_lion_amd_for_10_7_3_fam-15-16_model-6 !
No work on intel ! You should write in boot flag "-legacy" - it is 32 bit ! :) |

"I’ve actually gotten the kernel sorta-working on my AMD machine myself. The issue is that it would stall after detecting the root device, and I think it has to do with all this new pal reference stuff (platform abstraction layer) that is in the RTC code. It would stall while trying to launch the first userspace thread, at least that’s what I was able to figure out by booting it in VMware and doing a remote debug on it. This was done a while ago. If the person can share info on how he got it working (especially the pal rtc stuff) then I could help out. The reason I haven’t been working on it is my AMD machine is out of service, though I can get my hands on another one. My brilliant bud meklort wants to move all the CPU detection part of the kernel to chameleon, which makes things much easier. That’s where I am now with it." you should get to gather with nawcom for to collaborate. |

At least I did so - or let's say I tried to do so... I am currently stopped by a Kernel Panic: http://h11.abload.de/img/sam_1273w9k9a.jpg In case of not using "-legacy" flag, I am getting as far as in case of panic, just that the panic isn't displayed (freeze after boot disk initialisation - the same problem like nawcom experienced with kernel made by himself) I had to use IOPCIFamily.kext from 10.6.7 in order to get past "PCI Configuration beginn" ... I will gonna try a different hardware setup later, but need to get some sleep first... :D |

WOW... THANKS MATE... Your kernel can really work with the LION 10.7.2 on my AMD Phenom II X4 965 (32 bits mode of course) http://s16.postimage.org/bg9mq8p1h/amd_2.gif The 64-bits finder can't be opened ---> maybe someday the kernel can be patched so it can run with -force64 flag http://s14.postimage.org/kw6yjo2pd/amd_4.gif The 32-bits SAFARI can run flawlessly http://s18.postimage.org/ghg3ouymx/amd_3.gif THANKS FOR YOUR HARD WORK !!! |

Very nice do u mind sharing the diff you compiled with so nawcom and AnV can help u improve the one u made ? My Method Cloned my Intel Box 10.7.3 with CCC replaced mach_kernel-> Installed Chameleon 1837 on drive with FakeSMC ,NullPower...,EvoReboot,FakeSMC Thermal PLugins, in S/L/E Bootflags -v -legacy npci=0x2000 maxmem=4096 First Boot Success Confirmed Working on SysSpecs in my Signature No Finder yet (offcourse) Full Support on 5770,Lan ,etc |
Thanks for your hard work, it really great that somebody got it working.
It would be absolutely great if the 64 bit Userland could be implemented. |
OK. I can now confirm it working, too. :)
Previous Kernel Panic must have been some mistake when creating install media, so to simplify things, I used iAtkos L1 10.7.1 with just Basic System install this time... http://www.abload.de/thumb/screensho...3-30aqyjmy.png When not using -legacy flag, I still encounter the same problem, that has been described by nawcom on his blog for his Kernel attempts... It freezes after drive initalisation... We need to find some way to make it boot past this. nawcom says something about changes in RTC driver, so maybe we can try to figure out some old kext versions or something, that may gonna make it work... |

aim getting the same panic you got i am using retail lion 10.7.0 also retail 10.7.3 the two version gave me the same result i had setuped this two versions of lion on my notebook so they don't have problem can you share how did you solved this problem ;) thanks |
My friend ! My computer's CPU can Installation the Lion 10.7 ?????
CPU AMD A4-3300M APU with Radeon HD Graphics x2 1.90 GHz (100 MHz x 19.0) |
Good work bronzovka! I installed Lion on my AMD server, with an AMD Athlon II X3 445 @ 3.1GHz cpu, most things seemed to work, but not everything and I couldn't get Finder to work, it said it couldn't find a symbol in the crash log.

Source?
I'm willing to help with some extra patching, etc...can bronzovka please post source code? (I believe that's what the APSL licensing requires anyway).

Spread the core of the lion version 10.7.3 for AMD family at 15 - 16, model 6!
Not all AMD is working! On the intel will not work! Do not forget to collect the flag-legacy - a 32-bit) Who supports AMD ssse3, you will not need to type the flag - it will be 64-bit) "FROM http://applelife.ru" |

ASrock has published a Beta BIOS that would add AM3+ CPU support for my AM3 mainboard... :D If selling my Phenom afterwards, I could effort to purchase the FX-4100... - But ofcourse I would only want to put money into this, in case it will work... :cool: |
