Mavericks kernel testing on AMD (formerly Mountain Lion kernel testing on AMD)

+ira · November 23, 2013

I guess we need the "Don't ask help here, use HELP Topic" title back... :whistle:

Smith@@™ · November 23, 2013

I think that it's need an update FAQ for AMDl updated steadily with development progress and kernels update. More accessible for all ..

Well since you guys specialize in AMD stuff, I thought you guys might be able to help me. I guess not.

hi

The section is named "AMD Development". This basically means that this section is dedicated to developing, not asking help.

then, you already asked help here: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/294147-amd-installation-mavericks-or-mountain-lion/?do=findComment&comment=1970939

we moved your topic to the right place.

just be patient, give them the time to answer you.

good luck

There is a AMD Mavericks/Mountain Lion help topic. There are many people who could / would like to help you. Just write.

This is a topic which oscillates around the Mavericks / ML kernel testing.

I wrote three topics in the help topic, and 2 of them were resolved within two days. Try to write there - not here.

Good Luck!

There's two pinned posts in the AMD Development section, didn't you read any of them? You need to help yourself first, take some reading, pretend it's a game and if you win you'll have a running os x pc as a reward... :wink_anim:

Right as you replied, I just realized this is a closed forum for developers, I am sorry for the disturbance. BUT>.........

HELP TOPIC - further help in chat.osx86.hu/#legacykernel (IRC)

Just an interesting tidbit, I tried to check my L2 cache size this is what I got:

sudo dmesg | grep cache
Failed to load kext com.apple.driver.AppleHDAController (error 0xdc00800e).mcache: 4 CPU(s), 64 bytes CPU cache line size

and a snipet from: sysctl -a | grep cache

sysctl -a | grep cache
hw.cachelinesize = 64
hw.l1icachesize = 65536
hw.l1dcachesize = 65536
hw.l2cachesize = 524288

Here caches look right

Thanks guys, I might have disturbed your work on a potential new kernel, but I was referred to this forum by many links assuming it was also for assistance because it had a posted working kernel. So my bad guys
