Native 10.6.3 64-bit MacBook?
I know this may be the wrong area to post this since my computer is a genuine Apple MacBook, but I figured this forum would be the most helpful due to the hacking nature of the project.
I have an Early 2009 MacBook. It's the last of the non-unibody, white MacBooks, but has the NVidia 9400M. Apple has locked out using 64-bit mode on base model MacBooks even though all the hardware is perfectly 64-bit capable. My understanding is that the 32-bit EFi will not allow the unit to boot to 64-bit. Anyone know of a way to bypass/hack this. Surely OS X x86 tactics can be employed to make this happen. Could one use a 3rd party bootloader or EFI emulator to get the system to be seen as Pro?

This method works pretty much on any macbook with 64bit efi as far as i know, i just did it on my 2007 mac book pro 15". |
