I have been able to get it going (10.8.3),so what do you guys think is thr previous trend of the beta builds kexts working and the vanilla ones not working will continue withe future updates. Even so I suppose we are looking at 10.9 in mid to late summer isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter_sm Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 10.9 works ,just like 10.8.4,so far, except for hdmi for me Same here, and Cham patching the kernel so all cores in enabled, great, same as for ML //Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macq Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 That's Great My Hardware is different somehow, may be we will need a legacy GFX kext also ! did HDMI works for you in 10.8.4 !! @ yehia Amer well no ever since early lion builds there's kernel panic when trying hdmi . Wasn't able to make my own usb installer, had to use myhack 3.2 beta. Also I found even with earlier os x versions like lion or snow leo, that I could only make the usb install bootable with some specific builds of chameleon and not using the latest chameleon build.Could be some permission issues that I could not figure out or something else. Rest is as with 10.8.4. If you are having graphics issues look for your dsdt edits for graphics may be that's an issue. P.S. : what about the bootloader,I see more and more people using clover and more developers's working for it too,on a personal note since we don't have efi boards chameleon should be ok for the near future.

gsly Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Clover is IMHO a better/faster boot loader. BTW, I implemented the LAPIC kernel patch into Clover about a month ago and it works great on 10.7/10.8 in 64-bit (there is a 32-bit patch as well but I haven't tested it in 10.6). No more patching the kernel, its done at boot time! At the moment I'm using Clover to do legacy (MBR) boot on my HP DV8 but I plan to wipe the drive and get it booting with EFI as the Insyde BIOS is capable of this although I don't think its a *true* UEFI capable BIOS. Although you are safe using Chameleon on these laptops, I think its days are numbered as all new systems are going UEFI and you will need to switch boot loaders if you get a new system. Secure UEFI boot is the next issue we'll run into but I know the Clover developers will figure this out and continue to allow our hacks to boot on future hardware...

Peter_sm Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Anyone have a good settings/config files for Clover to the DV8 machines? I don't know how to use it right now, maybe Clover is the way to go ? But it looks not so easy like Cham ;-) //Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macq Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 @gsly yeah that prompted me to try out clover but since its different and requires some understanding of the way it works,I am just going about reading stuff and may be I'll try it on the next dp of 10.9 on the usb install and see how it goes. If you have some other suggestions please advise specially comon words ,dsdt and kext patching,etc. Its bit of a long read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomdek Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 @ glsy, could you post your working config file for clover and the kexts you're using? Would be greatly appreciated tried all last night to get it working, but lack of skills is not helping..... Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter_sm Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 On 10.8.4 my sleep is disabled, was Ok on 10.8.3, anyone knows what to fix this ?

yehia2amer Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I think Clover is developing very fast and it is very goodbut still lacks some key features like booting my non EFI windows 7 !also i don't like themes, i use chameleon with no themes at all i am sure i will find fixes soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsly Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I think Clover is developing very fast and it is very good but still lacks some key features like booting my non EFI windows 7 ! also i don't like themes, i use chameleon with no themes at all i am sure i will find fixes soon Clover does indeed boot non-EFI Windows 7. I'm dual booting Windows and OSX in non-EFI/MBR mode. And, as a bonus, if you pick the right options during install you can also install Chameleon as an additional boot loader and Clover can boot-strap it if you hold down a key at boot so you can test under either loader. However, I mainly use Clover now that I've added auto-LAPIC patching to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
