Don't misunderstand me... i said "it's a backstep for me..." intended as for my own Pc, i know that this is a great step forward for all of us... anyway i'll try again and again and again...
Today it's a busy work's day...

I had KP after some time Leo was running... i opened sys pref and after some click, freezed
Second time i was tryng again sys pref, then opened safari and KP with text in transparence of background...

I understood what you said :) I was just stating that if it doesn't work for you by installing via the package installer, then you should try to install it manually and make the changes necessary. no harm no foul for going back to RC1 though. that was a great release as well. probably the biggest jump forward for the community since zeph created ASU.

can you give a printout of kextstat for us? I'm just curious to see what kexts are being used. Also, Console printouts that include the kernel panic messages would be helpful.

Seeing as how you've gone to RC1 though I don't think its going to help now.

did you post a bug report to the xnu-dev site?

Tomorrow i'll reinstall final release and if there will be KP i'll make snapshots.
Thanks...
Great releases... ASU was a milestone, VoodooKernel as well is a great great job.
It's my opinion.. but is it possible in 64bit my wks is faster than in 32?

it all depends on what kind of applications you are running. If an application allows for 64bit processes to be run then the application will be faster. The majority of applications in OS X run in 32bit anyway because thats what they were designed for... no matter if you have a 64bit or a 32bit CPU. I've run Geekbench and Xbench (with and without the force64 flag) and I've noticed no difference between the different states using these apps... Remember to only compare Geekbench 32bit vs Geekbench 64bit and Xbench the same... not Geekbench vs Xbench.

I`m glad to see this kernel - it works perfectly on my Laptop. And it has resolved my biggest problem ever - Core bug and heating up after installation of iTunes. That`s great, big big big thanks, i love you guys ;)

Anyway - i`ve noticed 2 maybe 3 crashes - my 10.5.4 system just shut itself down. Working and then just black screen and laptop is off. I`m updating to 10.5.5 now, hope that`s the reason.

quick question, anyone try booting w/ force64 and not able to even load up?

i have this problem. i try using some 64 and it just sits there and when i look at my verbose mode, the last thing it says is firewire error, which happens EVERY time i boot up.

any help. thanks

nope... running fine on 64 for days now... haven't had the need to restart or had any faults... kernel is running great via munky-modified boot-132.

hi, last time, when i replased system.kext i had a kernel panic on boot(nothing helped -x -v -f . no) the last string was Mac os installed: not yet set or something like this.(manual kernel launch without system.kext worked, but trouble with USB) i had to reinstall my system. it was with RC1
is there 100% (or close) safe way to replace system.kext back if something goes wrong without reinstall? please explain. (i dont have a disk to back up completly, and anyway, last time i tried backup - it didn't work)


I have AMD x2 4000+
GUID partition
Leopard 10.5.5 ideneb 1.3 installed with amd patch, nforce patch, and ati video patch...

ps your kernel is really stable. no crashes. i could use it without system.kext but USB problem...
i included file generated by system information collection
