InferiorYeast Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 thanks, i actually just compiled this myself yesterday as i couldn't find it online. From the looks of it apple has only changed one line of code between the 10.5.2 and 10.5.3 applesmbios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konami® Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 This AppleSMBIOS 28 works like a charm in iAtkos 10.5.3 Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch_de Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Not working for me ! (10.5.3), because About Mac crashes. (Crash then Login Window restarts). It crashes the About Mac again, i solved with using the Chun-Nans AppleSMBBios. Working near PERFECT . But there is no hw-Serial Nr. I have EFI, can i set serial number (some Apps crash if there is no hw-serial number set) in the by efi strings add in boot.plist ? Below left side pic of chuan-nans AppleSMBBios (june 2008) . Systemprofler output correct, but no serial number (most at last entry shown). Right side an pic of your Systemprofiler output (About Mac... crashes !!!, must use Systemprofiler direct). Your new 28er version, beside the About Mac crashes , let me install the app which wants an hw-serialnumber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gizmoarena Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 does it work with kalyway 10.5.3? or do I really need it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mic.mac.hack Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Thanks for the great kext. Works absoloutely fantasticly on P5W DH hackintosh. About this Mac doesn't crash and not even GeekBench knows it's a hackintosh! Boot up was also faster than ever. SERIOUSLY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Thank you for the update, I tested it and mostly reporting correct beside the amount of RAM. It only show 2GB in About This Mac while I am actually have 6GB installed. System Profiler reporting correct RAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same problem as this guy, About This Mac crashes with every AppleSMBIOS.kext, including this one. The only solution I've found is removing the kext, this stops the crash but causes more problems than it solves, some programs need it to function. Good kext though, boot's a bit faster.

E-Chris Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Unfortunately this AppleSMBIOS (and the 27 version), prevent FireWire 800 drives from mounting. If I use netkas' version the drives mount fine. Anybody know why this AppleSMBIOS version has issues with FW800? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrates Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 This works great for non-vanilla systems, but for vanilla systems it causes a kernel panick. Is there a fix available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
