What boot problem would that be?

Is there any way to get the default apple boot image instead of a debug? I know its not critical, but it would be nice to see the apple logo at boot, instead of reading the same boot code over and over each time it boots!

Here is how you get the better looking Apple logo at the boot phase.

1. Look at your /Extra/com.apple.boot.plist file.
2. Find a line with Kernel Flags
3. Remove the -v that you see there. That actually means, verbose boot, which shows all these debug verbose boot message, that can used to somehow debug the boot process.

If you need it back, just add the -v in, or during the boot:

1. Select your Hack partition (that one that contains the Mac)
2. Type directly -v
3. The press Enter key

You can see the Apple logo at boot time if you enable the GUI boot in chameleon, com.apple.boot.plist

I don't use NullCPUPowerManagement kext. Are you having a K50IN or X5DIN like mine? If so, then why don't you just try the patched DSDT that are posted in here?

Usually, you just get the DSDT from Linux, then you patch it, then you feed it to Chameleon, add your kexts, modify the installation DVD, and do the install. The rest is a progressive state.
You are very lucky if you have one of the computer models that I have mentioned above, because these DSDTs are already patched, and ready to be used right away.

Its Working in 32 and 64 bit mode, vanilla kernel, speedstep, Chameleon RC3, and my choice of kexts in the extra folder. The system is stable with more than 24hours of load time, full 64bit, mind you that i dont have dsdt patch or i cant seem to find it The only non working part is: 1. The WiFi card which is Atheros AR9285 with no working kexts sofar. I have managed to buy Dell 1490 a/b/g with a Broadcom 4312 chip which is working as native airport. UPDATE: The Extra folder with all the needeed files: http://www.mediafire.com/?2tdimxtmt2z Thanks to all the osx86 community, keep up the good work!
