What is "Kernel: Voodoo Kernel Beta C"

I've posted here in the past when I used AnV's 10.5.6 (9.6.0) beta kernel from this thread because Voodoo only had 9.5.0 kernel (Version 1), and it did not work with dual core processor. (Get the wait queue deadlock)

comes time again for 10.5.7 update, and (9.7.0) gives me the same problem, so I look back at this thread and find things have change for the worse. (crying)

Since Anv file was in a pkg format, I could not extract the mach_kernel (still newbie)
So I used my 'safe/backup retail install partition', boot it, used the qoopz mach_kernel for 10.5.7 to the "just upgraded 10.5.7" one, then reboot, (It seems OSX can detect the mach_kernel change and automatically update my softraid/Boot OSX partitions..) Anyway, reboot and 10.5.7 works.

Hello, i have prepared a kernel for 9.70 using the sources of AnV, i removed everything extra it brings, like hpet that isnt needed since 9.5.0, and the builtin decrypter that uses a magic poem, and enverything that was marked "anv"
It seems this guy don't like Anv also..

But I agree that Voodoo official kernel is a bit "slow", if it wasn't for Anv's 10.5.6 beta kernel in the first place I would not have gotten dual core to work.

Thanks AnV.
