bgrau Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Thanks Team xnu-dev Mercurysquad everyone. I wonder if this RC will not crash when used from within a vmware machine in windows xp that runs a native physical hard disk leopard 10.5.5 installation? - I can do that with 10.5.3 / Modbin 9.3, but 10.5.3 / voodoo [any] or 10.5.4 /.5 / voodoo [any] gives kernel panic. It is not usual to want to do that, but sometimes I like to have access to Leopard from XP this way, i.e. native from within the VMWare environment... I will try the RC and report later.

mercurysquad Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share Posted November 27, 2008 As with any kernel panic, please take a screenshot or photo of the panic screen and attach it with the report, as without it we are as clueless as anyone else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackHair Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Sofar it's working great on my AMD. The system feels smoother then beta2c, timing test passed. sleep still working fine. I just updated itunes via apple sw update and it just...runs. This is cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickRiley Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 I updated Java thru Apple's SU, everything is fine.. runs smoother than beta2 indeed.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hecker Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Wow guys. This is so freakin' awesome. I can't wait to get home to try it! Thank you!!! It's a celebration bit**es!! EDIT: OK, I am testing it right now. So far everything is perfect. Sleep is working 100% (which never did in the past). I downloaded and installed all of the updates except for the combo update to 10.5.5 (using 10.5.2 right now) and they work great. I am planning on using the Boot-132 method in order to update without having to replace/fix kext files afterwards. This is a dream come true, guys.

JuanSNM Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 My god!!! thanks!!!, I was having issues with iTunes and QuikTime crashing at startup and with media files! Now it works!! Now I have a question... If I install an update that has already been patched for AMD, will it affect on something? If I want to know if an update has a new mach_kernel on it, shall I look it up with Pacifist? Ok, sorry for the dumb questions! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickRiley Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Well.. the bad news is that i got 2 Kernel Panics already with the RC.. The first one was when i tried to move 2 (unnecessary) folders from Applications to Trash, and the second one was 10 minutes later when i pressed on Skype's icon in dock... Photos attached.

entitas Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Nothing problematic so far, RC is doing fine here in my old SSE2 P4 machine. Performance is improved over Beta 2c with Chameleon 1.0.11. Geekbench is showing 29.18% increase in scores. The only problem that appears this time is described below: TSC: Verification of clock speed FAILED! Fallback correction was performed. Please update bootloader. I am giving the screenshot of boot screen here also. Now I want to show the performance changes across different kernels here. Geekbench scores with Modbin 9.4.0 and Chameleon 1.0.10 : 1010 with Voodoo_beta2c and Chameleon 1.0.10 : 1738! (I still don't know how I got that performance ) with Voodoo_beta2c and Chameleon 1.0.11 : 747! with Voodoo_RC and Chameleon 1.0.11 : 965 (Still low ) Check the scores from here : Geekbench.zip Results of System Information Collection and Test 5 is posted below: Test 5 System Information sysinfo.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Dent Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 having trubble installing retail it reboots at attempting to get clock multiplier tried busratio=12 and busratiopath=7 per amd im trying on a adm 4600+ x2 no avail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauℓzurrr. Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Well.. the bad new is that i got 2 Kernel Panics already with the RC.. The first one was when i tried to move 2 (unnecessary) folders from Applications to Trash, and the second one was 10 minutes later when i pressed on Skype's icon in dock... Photos attached. It also seems that the error is from macfuse, maybe if you test some things with the ntfs drives unmounted you won't have this problem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickRiley Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 well, anyway i'll still test the kernel all day long today.. so maybe i'll find the cause, till now no more KPs except those 2.. still curious how can interact those 2 folders and skype with my NTFS partition.. Plus, i never had KPs earlier.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, i never had KPs earlier.. I dont know why either, but the KP seems to be referring to the google macfuse. So it must be something with that...

On AMD we use a custom dyld and it is the 10.5.5 version. You're on 10.5.2. That could be causing the incompatibility. Or you could boot with patcher_opts=0 bootflag.

L0co Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 UPD 1) reboot works fine after uloading GenericCPUPowerManagement.kext 2) successful updated from Apple Updater - Security Update, Safari, iTunes, QT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xaiev Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Tried the patcher_opts=0 flag... after detecting USB bus & devices, I have "AppleNForceATA: found 0 units." (which is normal) and my hdd halts!! The thing is that i can't dl the latest leo4all iso via torrent because of a damn network firewall and it has not been posted on usenet yet Will backup & try to update via ASU.
