Blackknight (AnV/Qoopz-based) kernel w/corrected Phenom FSB detection

[digithree]

HI guys, sorry this may be a stupid question but I downloaded your patch and don't know how to patch my boot image.

I've unpacked the ISO file. How do I use the patch? Do I just add the files (BK.diff and mach_kernal) or replace and rename some file?

Thanks

Hey,

The diff file is only for developers that want to patch mach_kernel for themselves. All you need is the mach_kernel and you need to replace it in your ISO. You'll need to mount it readwrite so that you can write the new file to it. This is fairly common information, but you should really use one of the newer distributions that already have newer kernel versions. I made this modification back in the 10.6.2 & 10.6.3 days when this mod wasn't already included in the AnV based kernels. It has since been added to the latest legacy kernels (to my knowledge) so I have since stopped making this mod.

I'm trying to patch a Hazard ISO I got, filename is Snow_Leopard_10.6.1-10.6.2_SSE2_SSE3_Intel_AMD_by_Hazard. Will this patch work for it? I'm trying fix a kernal panic to do with my AMD Phenom II x6 1100T

bump for an update

thank you, works great, jus wondering, its suppose to work faster, than previous version? what is the main differences between this and older?

The only thing my mod does is correctly detect the FSB speed for AMD Phenoms and Shanghai processors allowing them to run at speeds higher than 3.0 GHz without kernel panic. If you have a Phenom I or II with a clock speed lower than 3.0 GHz and don't overclock, it doesn't really make a difference, but if you're is higher, it will no longer kernel panic at boot-up.

@ blackknight :

could you build a new patched mach_kernel 10.3.0 for the AMD system ?

fyi, now I'm running the Snow Leo Server 10.6.3 with your latest patched kernel (the blackknight's darwin 10.2.0)




thanks for your great efforts

Could you please post your system specs? I noticed that you have 64 bit mode working, which I haven't been able to do with snow 10.6.2.

Also, the darwin 10.3.0 kernel sources haven't been posted yet, so we can't make new kernels yet.

Over insanelymac there's a release by qoopz/nawcom of the new 10.3.0 kernel.

m28we,
How did you get 64bit enable. are the apps running.
