I was thinking how it would be great, if possible, to have kext in Extra folder which does necessary AMD patching no matter which kernel is used...

Two good news:

1 - Build 10A432 is Gold Master
2 - Hopefully new kernel for AMD machines will be available soon. :-)

1 - Yes
2 - Yes!

ehhh
 
And just about HOW LONG does it normally take for them to put together a kernel for an AMD-based system? Does ANYONE have a clue?

WooT WooT to new kernel!

Edit:
How long does it usually take to put together a amd kernel?

Working Great few tips
 
Hi

Thanks a lot of putting this worked like a charm. Couple of things though :

1. Xcode installation crashed the system during installation and then during subsequent bootup process. I had remove CHUD* from /System/Library/Extensions to get it boot again.

2. Pure 32 bit mode. So no apps can be ran in 64 bit more so no question of kernels and extensions working in 64 bit

3. Mouse and Performance was little firsky, so did a complete decrypt and CPUID patches and the performance was amazing. I must say Marvin utility still works great

Lets bring a 64 bit enabled kernel.

About XNU sources its being delayed more at the following darwin mailing list

Shutdown & BIOS reset on Pentium D machine :(
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hi.

I've tried following the guide on my machine (a Pentium D box), which incidentally works fine on Mac OS X 10.5.8.

I get the following error whenever I try to start up:

Attachment 524

I am using Chameleon rc 2.640 with the replaced boot file. I have the following Extensions in the Extras/Extensions folder of my EFI partition:

AppleRTC.kext
OpenHaltRestart.kext
dsmos.kext
NullCPUPowerManagement.kext
PlatformUUID.kext
fakesmc.kext

I also have a dsdt.aml in the root of my drive.

I am using the mach_kernel.test7 kernel.

Whatever I try I can't avoid the error shown above. It seems to be choking on AppleACPIPCI every time. The error only shows up for a few seconds and then the machine turns off. When I restart the CMOS checksum is invalid and I have to set my BIOS settings back from default.

Any suggestions?

yeah...
 
Sounds like DSDT issue to me... at least partly

Managed to patch the DSDT file, which has stopped it trashing BIOS, but I still get the exact same error and kernel death, so I still suspect something to do with AppleACPIPCI is the problem.

@ aryajuanda:

Is your system working without chipset drivers? What about these:

AppleAC97Audio.kext
AppleNForceATA.kext
nForceLAN.kext
skge.kext

These kexts I need for my hardware in Leopard. Will they work in Snow Leo, too? Interesting would be AppleThermal.kext. It only worked on 10.5.3, but if it was loaded my CPU is staying about 6°C/43°F cooler than as in 10.5.6.
