hrgh Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Worked on MBR Partition with Leopard , XP, Linux and Vista I Love the Chameleon Team !!! Thanks for this wonderful Bootloader. hgrh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R3van Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Works for me with EFI Partition and Vista on a separate harddisk. smbios.plist works partially (shows MacPro3,1 in System Profiler but Geekbench recognizes still "Hackintosh"). Shutdown works fine (for the first time with this Mainboard), reboot does it too. Sleep works, wakeup not (like before) One huge issue: CPU- & FSB frequency is not recognized correctly, i overclocked my system to CPU at 4,25 GHz and FSB to 2,12 GHz. MSR-Tools show the frequency correctly, also the temperature seems to fit to the overclocked specs but System Profiler and "sysctl -a hw.cpufrequency" fails: Does anybody know how to set a default Disk to Boot? It starts everytime with the wrong hdd... Edit: so, the frequency issue and the recognize in Geekbench could get fixed by editing the smbios.plist as i`ve been told by kabyl, thx for that Only problem is still wakeup from sleep, but this is only a disfigurement as i don`t use sleep with my pc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Vandijck Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Well yeah, very nice but since it doesn't have SSDT override I'm not yet switching... I'm waiting for the eventual release... Very cool though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kabyl Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Well yeah, very nice but since it doesn't have SSDT override I'm not yet switching...I'm waiting for the eventual release...

relikwie Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Works.. nice nice If someone knows how to boot an Ubuntu installation on a second hdd, please tell me. Chameleon recognizes the FAT32 partition on the second disk, but not the ext3 partitions. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THe KiNG Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Yeah I know but still... I'm waiting...Allready tested it this way... Yeah I'm pretty sure you can't wait for source to change something and mark it(like dogs) with your name, like you did with old one and others work. I wonder if you can write some kext or something from start to finish, if yes prove it if no please don't make me vomit again. I will ask chameleon dev's, beg if necessary, to add a special note in license: "The usage of this source is forbidden for Andy Vandijck, DO NOT touch it!"

Yes I can write kext's and more from scratch... It's not that hard really... just see Apple's IOKit kext tutorial... BTW: I allready made 2 apps from scratch... just take a look at my PPF-O-Suite. Anyhow... I don't have anything to prove to you... If you think you are so great why don't you make anything huh... That's my opinion anyway... besides... the stuff that I would add to it would be simple and I wouldn't change the name with this one... Last one I did lots of changes and found it necessary to change the name... This one is different... Please go bother someone else with your {censored}... like what? we want to hear from you, or you prefer not to tell? (I'm fine with either). Well proper Mac id data and SSDT override... That's what I would add for the moment... If needed also clean up the warnings in the source (if any)... I like stuff to be perfected so....

I'm not really sure what the "proper Mac ID" helps with, and adding SSDT override is just more useless work. The warnings have been fixed. Note: please if you ever consider releasing a fork, use a your version, and don't increment the current Chameleon one, we got some issues with what you did with 1.0.11. I'm sorry to say this in public, but you didn't want to change it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morfy Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I made an 2.0RC1 installer app out of an older chameleon installer.So you must not do terminal commands or knowing your disk/part numbers. Select your HD/partition by the installer. For me it worked on MBR HD. Also worked to boot XP from an different (other) HD. For EFI EXTRA (boot132) install you must do some more (terminal) work. Read the readme of orig. chameleon installer or hints below here. it doesn't work on my system. To the reboot, after the boot it is restarted. How do I do to restore the old boot? thx advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netkas Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 few usefull keys to add to boot.plist on partition where bootloader installed <key>Default Partition</key> <string>hd(1,2)</string> <key>Graphics Mode</key> <string>1400x1050x32</string> one sets video mode for chameleon screen, another one sets defauult partition to boot, for chameleon, u can look at partitions list by pressing tab durring in chameleon.

ac3bcn Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Very Good , and thanks!! I've installed , seems to be all ok, also sleep works as well and boot time is really faster, the only issue I've is a lot of _CFGetHostUUIDString: unable to determine UUID for host. Error: 35. Is anyway to Override UUID like witn older version of Chameleon and some customs APPLESMBios.kext ? Thanks again !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
