Before we begin to install Snow leopard On AMD system we need to prepare some file : 1. Kernel : Because AMD cant boot with vanila kernel.. for me the most success kernel is mach_kernel.test7 from modbin. test7 its because its kernel…

i m using mach_kernel.432amd any idea what causing the KP? my RIG: AMD Athlon X2 7750 BlackEdition Gigabyte GA-M720-US3 4 GB kit DDR2 PC 6400 G-Skill BlackEdition 500 Gb Seagate Baracuda SATA GeForce 9600 GT 512 MB GDDR3 256Bit

“you can use PC EFI 10.5 boot loader and use GraphicEnabler feature for your VGA.. work fine for me... no more need inject/enabler kext..”

“try to use an EFI string from your Leopard installation.. u might need to add Pci ID of your VGA to your ATI… kext (i dont know the proper kext because i dont have ATI card).. or you can try looking an answer in netkas.org”

“Hi aryajuanda, I have updated my Snow to 10.6.1 update patched using zephyroth's AMD patcher, everything works fine, but Dock is disappears , how to get it back? you can try copy an original Dock.app to /System/Library/CoreServices/”

“I have a proper boot file and I dont think that the boot file is the problem, boot process goes through all the way and just when it should start with login screen, it goes to KP. I probably have to wait for a better amd kernel. what is you…”

“I manged to install SL using a combination of this guide and the guide on ihackintosh, but I'm not able to boot it. I installed on my external USB drive (GUID), installed this kexts: I get KP every time when I try to boot (I tried booting w…”

“Boot into leopard, copy the mach_kernel.test7 file to Your 10.6 root folder, open terminal and set permissions : sudo chown -R 0:0 mach_kernel.test7 sudo chmod -R 755 mach_kernel.test7 Restart. While booting, press F8 if needed, and in prom…”

“Ok, I just removed the .test7 so that it would load modbin's kernel... the thing is... when it starts to boot up and look for the kexts theres a kernel panic, i tried using cpus=1 flag, -x32, -v, and -x and i still get the KP. Why is this h…”

“buy Apple snow leopard in apple store n restore to an empty partition... lol…”

“have u try to restore it without convert it to dmg?”

“you can restore the installer to a partition in your usb drive or hdd and change the osinstall.mpkg for mbr hdd.. so you will need 2 empty partition 1 for installer and 1 for snow”

“I am trying to follow your guide, but I have the below problem. I can't restore the image that I have downloaded. Whenever I try to scan the image for restore I get one of the following messages: Unable to scan "imagename.dmg". (Invalid Arg…”

“thanks for the sollution.. it will help for other user with a same problem.. i dont have this problem on my system…”

“I guess this kernel is 32bit only right now, so no >4Gb yet. But i might be wrong. glad to hear its work on your system... yes this is a 32 bit kernel only.. but you can try to boot kernel n kext in 64 bit mode (use -64_bit on boot arg) but…”

“Tried it on my machine few times, but it never worked. Keeps rebooting after loading all kexts files. are u sure u have change the kernel.. the vanilla kernel make reboot om AMD. u can also use chameleon 2 rc 3 to replace the boot file. ins…”

“i got my sleep fix with place my LPC PCI Id in AppleLPC.kext and use sleepenabler.kext for snow leopard... sleep and wake is working…”

“the problem with me is the kernel panic. with Mobdin test7 kernel my Rig is. AMD Phenom 2.6 GHz 9950BE 2GB Corsair Ram DDR 800 n Biostar TA790GXB A2+ v6.0 ( SB 750 and ALC662 ) - Nvidia 8600GT 512 ( Working with injectors provided in 10.5.4…”

“guys is this really snow leopard? i know that it was released on august 28 but how did you guys install before august 29? sorry to ask this question but i'm really curious yes it is... i use Dev dmg of SnowLeopard 10A432, confirm as GM buil…”

“Well I seem to have got past the AppleACPIPCI issues, but it still shuts down. The issue seems to be this: /dev/disk1s4: Can't initialize disk cache I have tried booting into single user mode and it gives me the same error if I try to run f…”

“@ aryajuanda: Is your system working without chipset drivers? What about these: AppleAC97Audio.kext AppleNForceATA.kext nForceLAN.kext skge.kext These kexts I need for my hardware in Leopard. Will they work in Snow Leo, too? Interesting wou…”

“hey, so i've installed 10a432 on my friends hackintosh gigabyte p45udl. he has a 9600gt with 1024mb of ram. we got the bootup, sata, sound and networking working but can't get the video working. i've tried creating a custom efi string with …”

“This is disaster. Do you know if Dmitrik's kernel supports on the fly patching? i dont know.. i cant boot with dimitriK legacy kernel... i guess its back to old time AMD Hacking for now... (the real Hackintosh ... lol) until a new kernel cr…”

“you can fix iTunes (on post no #3) you need pacifist 2.6 on snow leopard”

“its a legacy kernel.. haven't tested on pentium D... (i dont have one) may be you should try it to find out..”

“nice to hear that its work for you maya77.. the kernel is 32 bit by default.. where did u put your ac 97 kext ? are u installing after you get in to snow or before first boot. the extenstions.mkext is different from leo you cant use kext he…”

“After an successful install n boot into snow leopard i found some problem iTunes is crashing everytime.. the problem is the amd legacy kernel from modbin for snow leopard doen't have a on fly cpuids patch like voodoo based kermel so we need…”

“maybe u can use this step maya77 for your AMD.. its work for me.. Snow Leopard 10A432 Install”

“nice guide.. i have a same mobo.. its so easy to get a working osx with this mobo... lol...”

“it have some issue wit 64 bit mode in AMD.. i have test this kernel for few day... its made for modified xnu kernel not based on test 7... hope it will have some improvement soon...”

“No problem with iTunes 8.2.1 (6). Recognizes my iPhone and syncs. You could try reinstalling iTunes :-| No problem for intel... but some problem with AMD... now i got it fixed & itunes work normally… (back to the old way of hackintosh) Gonn…”

“i finally got my snow working… i got new boot n kernel from modbin… itunes is crashes...”

“i have asking modbin and he give me a new kernel. but its still KP on my rig... gonna wait for some new kernel.”

“Which bootloader are you using? And you re-named the kernel to mach_kernel? using chameleon rc2 i have not rename the kernel”

“= did you figured out the problem with PADL_ and PADR_? Cause i think this needs to be added to vfs_attrlist.c #include But im not sure if that the correct way. mach_traps.h is in osfmk/mach/ And vfs_attrlist.c is in bsd/vfs/ = ------------…”

“i get pass the ASERT thing by add #include in /bsd/kern/mach_header.c”

“this i my err pastebin : paste bin.com/m77caee23 added : pass the pexpert by editing the /pexpert/pexpert/pexpert.h: #if !defined(__LP64__) && !defined(__arm__) extern boolean_t PE_parse_boot_arg( const char *arg_string, void *arg_ptr) __de…”

“i have an AMD machine running SL in 32 bit mode with this metode : Snow Leopard 10A432 Install , will try to compile it tonight... hope i can help creating 64 bit XNU kernel..”

“i just replacing mu sound with voodooHDA.kext still cannot sleep. i try qoopz 9.8 it have same problem... i cant sleep using 9.8.0 kernel back using ANV 1.5.1 9.7.0 kernel…”

“its working on my AMD system but it have same problem with other 9.8.0 kernel. i use custom DSDT patch to use vanilla AppleHDA.kext for my sound.. 9.8 kernel made some err on boot : my sound is working but i lost my sleep… maybe i should us…”

“Retail is the best way to get snow leopard installed...”

“Hey ANV… 9.8.0 based kernel is release... will you make 9.8.0 ANV kernel? And here is the Qoopz 9.8.0 v2 based on Voodoo kernel. Compatible with Intel/Amd/i7 Download (media fire.com/?mtdmi2jlgtk)”
