I don't know if this is specific to my hardware/circumstances or if others are in the same situation but I figured the theory might help someone else who is looking to do the same thing or something similar. The info, at least for me was…

“If yes then I can prolly remove the code for detecting and patching cpuids ... Tell me. Nah, don't do that... Maybe make it optional? IMO, even if Voodoo supports all AMD processors, your app is still far from useless. Voodoo should make re…”

“Zephy, it opens fine now but I get another error when drag&drop file: Did you already try deleting your old preferences file? I haven't tried the new version yet, but I think that problem is just that there are different fields in the new f…”

“Looks great, but I get this error on startup: Then it wont accept any file I drag&drop to the program interface. I'm using Leopard 10.5.5. Yup. And if you fix that error, it goes to another and then another... BUT, this app is really lookin…”

“it's normal for a spdif output not to have a software volume control isn't it? because the outputs aren't being handled in software, simply being passed-thru digitally. On a technical level, you're right of course, and it can be assumed tha…”

“It's probably just a waste of time that we're posting in this thread... but maybe not, in which case I hope few people benefit from this kind of discussions (I prefer to call it like that, instead of calling it arguing). I agree, discussion…”

“Well, their so called "EFI" is not a Larger Work to begin with.. Is that enough? Not really... It looks like a "larger work" to me, it looks like they not only consolidated a few things, *maybe* made them easier to use, prettier to look at,…”

“They have to release the changes for that, since it's based on boot-132 and is under APSL, if they don't, it would be a gift given to Apple on a golden plate. Interesting, I was under the impression that the APSL was similar to BSD. If I'm …”

“can you explain to me how this works? i dont quite understand. do i use the one that boots at start up or the one that is a .exe which i launch after i log into XP? No, you want to DL the CD, Floppy or USB version. After burning it or insta…”

“Try SuperGrubDisk superg rubdisk.org/ it has an option to restore the Windows bootloader. Unplug the other drive just to be safe.”

“Will I be able to install from a retail 10.5.1 dvd and upgrade _after_ the install, or do I need an updated retail dvd? Updating is basically the same as always. All this kernel does is erase the distinction between AMD and Intel users, mea…”

“BTW: What about the file mach_kernel.ctfsys (about 10.2 MB) which exists with the kernels 9.2.0 and 9.3.0 ? Isn't it neccessary anymore? I deleted it before installing the new kernel. I *believe* it's only needed for debug purposes.”

“What does the -f boot flag do? It just forces the system to ignore any caches and reload all the kernel extensions. For updating to 10.5.5 I used the Combo Update patched which Zephyroth's external AMD patcher, not ASU. This deletes automat…”

“Booting with -v -f -F doesn't help? I think I've seen that same error, it was just BS if I remember correctly. Does it panic before making it to single user mode?”

“I`ve just noticed - dual core bug is fixed, but - on beta2 kernel, VMWare Fusion 2.0 doesnt work - pc just hangs when you start the virtual machine. when i boot in older kernel, it doesn`t happen. What is the kernel named ? If it's named an…”

“The icon was created by R0GUE. But it doesn't need changes. I agree, it's nice as is. Oh yeah, I think tagging packages whether they are modified or not is probably a good idea.”

“So no one had any permissions issues with the packages created ? In my case, patching Combo update 10.5.5 and examining the re-created package showed permissions were set to the user that did the patching. :”

“We can open the package with Pacifist and look into it? dont we? Then if there's a threat, we can act in consequence. Like Taisto said, you would first have to know exactly what is supposed to be there and what's not. Then you would also ne…”

“The worst you can do is shellcode, IMO. Yeah, it's not like a simple shell script could wipe out your entire drive on the next restart… oh, wait... : Aside from the fact that you're completely wrong and anyone can install anything they plea…”

“I wonder what will Apple do about this. I'm hoping Apple can help close up these doors... There is absolutely nothing they can practically do about it. No viable OS can or should stop it's owner from doing something stupid if they choose to…”

“Ah so it won't be possable to install? Not with a Wubi install, use a normal install. When using Hari Taiki's method I got this btw. Of course, because there is essentially no difference between what he told you to do and what I told you to…”

“a.) Not sure why you're trying to install grub to /dev/sda1 when the part mounted at root is /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk b.) Not sure why you didn't mention this whole time that you were talking about a Wubi install and not a normal instal…”

“sudo and su mean nothing inside the grub shell... You have to follow handz instructions exactly if you want them to work. Better yet let's try a different approach, boot into your linux installation, not a live cd, and open a terminal then …”

“You need to install grub to the partition itself for Chameleon to pick it up.”

“how can i try different kext when i cant even get into the osx i m hunged up at the kernel only Boot from the installer DVD, partition, usb drive, whatever you used to install, now launch a terminal and delete or move the kext, both Caches …”

“demigod Can you post the output from diskutil list Also, is there a reason you have "rw" in your fstab options? Does this mean you have NTFS-3G installed? If so, you need to make the filesystem type in fstab "ntfs-3g" and not simply "ntfs".…”

“Yes, just using labels is much easier to wrap your head around, easier to set and easier to remember. UUID must have some advantages over labels since everything is moving in that direction but I haven't found them yet. Two things I found o…”

“Underneath the donation button there is a link in the sentence that reads "Alternatively you can click here to download the requested file." Grab the file and use a USB drive or whatever to get it installed, then you can worry about getting…”

“Now what happened was so weird, i got a DVD with Leo4all and when i inserted it in the pc and boot from dvd, the installation went to the registration part of the leopard install, when i filled it out, i got to the Desktop normally. When i …”

“how would it matter if i formatted with NTFS or FAT32 when i have to re-format to MAC OS X (Journaled) in order for the setup to run on the partition? It wouldn't. As far as your problem goes. Seems like something is up with your optical dr…”

“Would it be the same to put this on either a 4 or 16gb USB drive, I returned the superdrive I bought for the install. Not sure what you mean? If the question is whether you can run Parted Magic from a USB drive instead of a CD, then the ans…”

“Running disk utility on this hdd is unlikely to solve anything. Do yourself a favor, grab the normal iso available at parte dmagic.com/ burn it to a cd then boot from it. Now using the file manager ( or terminal ), mount the drive/partition…”

“If it wasn't for the $50.00 Psystar's activation copy, I would say Psystar may have a chance (in my opinion). Maybe, if it was free or at least at a cheaper price, Rebel EFI could be something that could revolutionize the PC Industry a.) I …”

“There's nothing helpful, at least I don't think so, in those screenshots. What boot options have you tried? Have you tried booting with -v -f -F ? Or into single user mode? You could also try a different kernel just in case Voodoo doesn't l…”

“Site looks great to me... But then what do I know.”

“Two things to try: Make sure you select "Erase" for the partition you're trying to restore to. If that doesn't help, look in the Disk Utility menu for an option like "Check image for restore" or something like that and see if that helps.”

“Voyn1x posted a link for you in his first post... Did you even click on it ? Here: chameleon.osx 86.hu/file_download/10/Chameleon-1.0.11-installer.zip Download Chameleon by clicking that link, double click to install then reboot without the…”

“Help with what? "a different problem" I don't see how anyone could even guess at what's wrong with that amount of info.”

“Remove AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext then boot with "-f -F -v". If you can't boot into safe mode to do it, then you can use the install DVD to do it.”

“strangly there is music playing in the backround. That's actually a good sign, you're hearing the welcome movie, means it's booting fine but you have a problem with graphics. Boot into single user mode by using the -s switch at boot then mo…”
