Can't boot with more than 4gb ram AMD iatkos
1 Attachment(s)
Hi I have a stable snow leopard that runs very good on my pc. It is a amd phenom x6 1090t with an asus m4a87td evo board a gtx 480 graphics card. I used iatkos, the version which installed 10.6.3 with the quoopz(sp?) kernal. Currently i'm running 10.6.7, and everything works very good, and very stable. However I can only boot with the maxmem flag "maxmem=4096", If i go over that, the system shuts down. I booted in verbose mode and posted the error that comes up right before the system shuts itself down. I used tonymac's installer to get audio, nvida, bootloader working. Any ideas would be great. Thanks.

Ok so I added the -force64 boot flag and it will boot into the OS, however none of the 32 bit programs will work, and the overall performance is not as good. I read somewhere that I may need to patch my amd binaries, but I can't find any threads that explain this. Anyone have a clue? I'd rather run it in 32 bit with the 8gigs, but I'm not sure if that's an option or even possible.

Thanks for the quick response. I've searched around a little and downloaded the amd_isn_patcher. These instructions that are posted seem a little beyond my skills in osx. Is there a noob explanation on how to do this process? It looks like I need to use the terminal, but I don't have any luck with any of the commands. /noob:D thanks!

Ok, first of all open terminal, cd to the directory where amd_insn_patcher is(example desktop, so you type cd desktop), then type sudo ./amd_insn_patcher /System/Library/QuickTime/QuickTimeComponents.component/Contents/MacOS/QuickTimeComponents /System/Library/QuickTime/QuickTimeComponents.component/Contents/MacOS/QuickTimeComponents that should be patched, then type sudo ./amd_insn_patcher /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib and at last type sudo ./amd_insn_patcher /usr/lib/dyld /usr/lib/dyld. Reboot and all 32bit apps should now work. :)
