Just moved from 10.5.6 using Munky's EFI bootloader to 10.6.1 using Chameleon 2 RC3 & PC-EFI 10.5 installed on the main drive, thanks in main to sk1nhd33t's easy to follow guide. Evrything is running very smoothly apart from two little…

Anyone know know how I can hard-encode CPU and memory info into the source code of AppleSMBIOS.kext? Trying to fix the problem I posted here; About This Mac & AppleSMBIOS in Snow Leopard I think this is my solution, but unfortuantly Netkas…

“Maybe it helps to use all the values SMBIOSEFI injects via smbios.plist? (Including modell, serial number and all the stuff) Ofcourse just an idea... Tried using all the available values, and also with just main ones, model number, CPU & Bu…”

“What do you mean only chosmetic? SMBIOS.plist just injects the values so System Profiler displays them, some of them are only of chosmetic value (i.e. RAM speed or Manufacturer or Serial Number) but others like Mac Model seems to be very im…”

“Try editing smbios.plist with your cpu's values. Yes, but as I said before, it's only a cosmetic fix Well the source code is avaible - so what's missing is someone to port it. Well I can tell you right now, myself attempting that would be l…”

“Update, Chun-Nan's AppleSMBIOSEFI.kext did the trick when i dumped it in S/L/E. No idea why I didn't try that before, probably used to using an "Extra" folder I know Andy's AppleSMBIOS was loaded correctly when I gave it a whirl. Actually, …”

“Chun-Nan's AppleSMBIOSEFI.kext doesn't help, but I think it's designed to work exclusively from the EFI partition, not an extra folder on the main partition or S/L/E. As for my DSDT, it's patched for HPET, RTC, _WAK, ALC883 Audio and the Sn…”

“Ah, I was hoping you were using a USB one and had selected the PS/2 drivers by mistake. Unfortunately I have no experience of using a PS/2 keyboard or mouse under OS X. I've had a quick look on qoogle and can't see an obvious fix. Can you g…”

“Mister burns, it's a well known ACPI error. You need the ACPI fix as mentioned by galee above. Do you have a working OS X install setup? I can probably dig out the kext you need.”

“Try booting in verbose mode ("-v" as a boot flag) and report back here what it's saying when it fails.”

“Do you know how I could patch the update or force it to update somehow? No idea. I installed this i think- SnowOSX Universal 10.6 GM (10a432) v3.5 Eng (it might be the 3.4? I know nothing about that release. Just because it says "10a432" do…”

“I want to know exactly which build you're running. I don't think 10.6.1 will work with non-retail copies (i.e. developer seeds) of the final build. Either that or you've already installed 10.6.1 and you haven't noticed”

“Run "System Profiler" then select "Software" from the left had side list of options. The main window on the right should change are say "System Software Overview:". Copy and paste what it says under that heading here.”

“Be more descriptive, what's the problem/error you're receiving?”

“Have you tried using an EFI string? Also, what boot loader you using?”

“Are you trying to boot Snow Leopard in 32bit or 64bit mode? If it's 64bit, you'll need the 64bit version of VoodooHDA.”

“nobody have any ideas on how to fix my problem?”

“Are you using either a PS2 keyboard and mouse?”
