Trouble Booting SL 10.6.7 AMD
 

Dude using a Darwin Kernel in AMD isnt very clever go for nawcoms Legacy Kernel
and be shure once u get in there with the mod cd u install a Bootloader wich detects the vervet framebuffer(kabyl) This one does correct for your card and solved your problems are ;)

Well I installed his legacy kernel so idk why it says darwin 10.7 but it does lol I will try that bootloader now.

try with the bootflag

and if u get in there u apply these settings to your com.apple.Boot.plist
:D

I did exactly what you said and it still doesn't boot. Gives same error.

Boot using your CD, then install legacy kernel and Chameleon.

Here is latest Chameleon build:

And here is legacy kernel for 10.6.7:

I'm also using VoodooTSCSync for my AMD:

and following kernel flags:
arch=i386 -force64 cpus=6 busratio=16

"cpus" and "busratio" values for your CPU are 4 and 17.

I did that and it didn't work still gave me that same error.

Same problem

HELP US!!!

and BMW3series, if you figure something out please DO NOT FORGET TO POST HOW YOU GOT IT WORKING! And if I figure something out I will post how I got it working as well. Thanks! (:

I found why it was happening.
GPU must be enabled.
I reinstall Mac OS X 10.6.3 and enable my video card with efi string (nVidia 9800 GT)
Then I update to 10.6.7 and instal legacy kernel.
Now system boot normally.
Sorry i don't speak english very well

So it's GPU related?? Well I have a different GPU i have a 5770. What should I do?

When I go to about this mac it stills says darwin 10.4.0 is being used. Does this just not update? I downloaded 10.7.0 and updated for 10.6.7. The package installs itself yet it still says 10.4.0 in the about this mac window. Is it updated or not? Thanks.

just be sure u assign legacy kernel as default in the com.apple.boot.plist in extra folder and it should use it

We have almost the same exact specs besides the motherboard akimoa. What did you do to install leopard? I think my problem is I'm installing 10.6 retail and updating straight to 10.6.7 via software update.

Use this Tutorial and u should be fine also combine it with common sence

Tried that and it installed, but when I went to boot with the boot cd it won't work no matter what boot flag I use. I'm going to try and boot with nawcom after work and see if I can get it booted. If not, I will install with nawcom, then follow the tutorial once I get to the desktop.

Thanks!

Here is what I did:
followed tutorial in link above. When I rebooted after install I used nawcom boot cd instead of the one they gave. Followed tutorial from then on. Did not update yet. Had to instal realtek kext to get internet working. Updating system now.

Updating did not work. Even after legacy kernel. Gave me same error I was having before. I am going to keep it as 10.6.5 because it works perfectly fine WITH full gpu support. I wish I could software update to 10.6.7 but it is just not working for me. If someone knows of a solution please let me know. Thank you.

i had the same problem with 5770
 

i had the same problem, solved using Chameleon-2.0-RC5-r832 installer in customize i installed klibc from modules tag, also i had Leopard installed in a second partition which i deleted when reinstalled Snow Leopard that two changes i made worked for me

chears

I'm really new at this stuff could someone explain that to me? I have no clue what he said lol

Please??????????
