VoodooHDA doesn't load when deployed on Chameleon USB stick Options

[rstrube]

Hey everyone,

I'm having some difficulty getting the VoodooHDA.kext to load from my Chameleon USB stick. My chameleon installation looks like: (please see the attached image)

For some reason the VoodooHDA.kext only loads when I've installed in into /System/Library/Extensions on my main OS X partition. Ideally, I would like to leave my kexts (in the OS X partition) untouched and only have them deployed in my Chameleon installation. Is there any way to do this? Other kexts seem to load fine from the Chameleon USB stick.

Thanks for the help,

Robert

Hello I
t is because it lacks dependencies. If you want to load VoodooHDA from Extra folder, you need to add IOPCIFamily.kext, IOAudioFamily.kext and OSvKernDSPLib.kext too. However, as VoodooHDA is a driver and not a patched kext or a legacy kext required to boot, there is no need use it in Extra folder. Actually, using it in /Extra slowed the boot process on my laptop.
