mac.hp.pc Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Hi do anyone know how to automatically load the boot configuration? It's very annoying to enter the same code over and over again. Example: GraphicsEnabler=Y cpus=1 busratios=19 Something I have to retype the hole thing because of miss spell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koenkk Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Hi, You should add these 2 rules to your org.chameleon.boot.plist located in the /Extra/ folder. (the extra folder is mostly located in the root of your os x hdd). <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string> GraphicsEnabler=Y cpus=1 busratios=19</string> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Please pay attention to what you are doing, especially when trying to help someone else. GraphicsEnabler is not a kernel flag and busratio does not have an S at the end. Kernel kernel_name_here Kernel Flags CPUS=1 busratio=19 GraphicsEnabler y 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac.hp.pc Posted June 28, 2012 Author Share Posted June 28, 2012 Do i copy the <key>Kernel</key> <string>kernel_name_here</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>CPUS=1 busratio=19</string> <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>y</string> Or do i have to change "kernel_name_here" because i don't know which kernel i am currently using.

Gringo Vermelho Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 If you're not using a patched kernel it's mach_kernel. Some people rename their patched kernel to mach_kernel but that's a bad idea because when installing the next 10.7.x update their patched kernel will get overwritten by the new Apple kernel.

mac.hp.pc Posted June 30, 2012 Author Share Posted June 30, 2012 Where do i insert <key>Kernel</key> <string>march_kernel</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>CPUS=1 busratio=19</string> <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>y</string> in the org.chameleon.boot.plist? In my org.chameleon.boot.plist it look like <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Boot Graphics</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Default Partition</key> <string>hd(0,4)</string> <key>EthernetBuiltIn</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>GenerateCStates</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>GeneratePStates</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Instant Menu</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Kernel</key> <string>mach_kernel</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string></string> <key>Legacy Logo</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Quiet Boot</key> <string>No</string> <key>Timeout</key> <string>2</string> <key>UseKernelCache</key> <string>No</string> <key>npci</key> <string>0x2000</string> </dict> </plist> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyolc8 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Just modify your org.chameleon.boot.plist to this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" " http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Boot Graphics</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Default Partition</key> <string>hd(0,4)</string> <key>EthernetBuiltIn</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>GenerateCStates</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>GeneratePStates</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Instant Menu</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Kernel</key> <string>mach_kernel</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>CPUS=1 busratio=19</string> <key>Legacy Logo</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Quiet Boot</key> <string>No</string> <key>Timeout</key> <string>2</string> <key>UseKernelCache</key> <string>No</string> <key>npci</key> <string>0x2000</string> </dict> </plist> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Boot Graphics Yes Redundant, yes is the default Quiet Boot No Redundant, no is the default Instant Menu Yes Timeout 2 Those two are conflicting - make up your mind whether you want a timeout or "instant menu". npci 0x2000 npci=0x2000 belongs in the kernel flags string, it will not work like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alaskantraveler Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I am gonna chime in here: (late I know) Please pay attention to what you are doing, especially when trying to help someone else. GraphicsEnabler is not a kernel flag and busratio does not have an S at the end. <key>Kernel</key> <string>kernel_name_here</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>CPUS=1 busratio=19</string> <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>y</string> GraphicsEnabler=Yes is a kernel flag, some systems won't do the <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>y</string> thing. Putting it into the <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>aruguments here</string> Passes it to the kernel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
