joblo10 Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 joblo10 Maybe this picture will help you:: At left side - before manipulations, at right side - edited kernel It works! I was definatly not doing the good thing, I was adding bytes instead of replacing... works perfect now on my venice A64. I'll remember that an offset location include 4 bytes now Thanks for the help guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matrix961 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Great Job with this. Now I can restart without having to press the button manually. Where the hell was this fix hiding? NPWSKI: Thanks for the screenshot. This really helped out because I used "Hex Fiend" and could not search for the actual offset, would not find it. I was able to find the line by seeing what you had highlighted in the screenshot, I just searched for that then compared the lines to make sure I had the right one. Great Work!!!

velayo Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Omni, just came back from a trip and haven't tried it yet, but damn, THANKS man!!!!! I've been searching hi and lo for this one for a while. I'm going to print it just in case, and keep it in my safe. I didn't remembered who was the author, but did remember seeing it and saying i'll try that later. Thanks, again. Keep up the good work!!! BTW I knew it was one of the big dogs, HEHE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it meaning following? 1. musit find the 10.4.4 mach_kernel form 10.4.4? 2. edit and replace the mach_kernel to my OSX whatever your system's version (Like 10.4.3 or others)?

axept Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Hi i have an Intel P4 2.8 and i have not applied the amd enabler patch yet,so the Mach_Kernel doesn't have that line,do you think it is safe to apply the amd enabler just to get a matching kernel to edit ? I saw someone with an P4 saying it worked but i'm affraid of messing it. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogboyaa Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 How do i edit the mach_kernel? Is it in the MacOSX enviroment...or in windows...i dont have a clue...sorry im a newbie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogboyaa Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 found out...you need hex workshop... Open Terminal: Type cp /mach_kernel ~/Desktop/mach_kernel Then Copy file to usb drive and use hex workshop to open above file. replace: EBFE9090 w/ B0FEE664 Save File copy file back to the desktop Then At the Mac open terminal again and type: sudo cp ~/Desktop/mach_kernel / you are done.

Hiro_ Posted May 5, 2006 Author Share Posted May 5, 2006 Yeah Belgrano, but i dont know nothing, please explain for me your solution please. I not try nothing understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belgrano Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 There is a file called mach_kernel on your OS X partition. Of course, it's hidden so you have to use Onyx or Cocktail to make invisible files become visible. Then, using a hex editor, you have to open that file and replace some values, as it was mentioned above. THAT IS THE FIX. If it's working, you're lucky. If not... that's it.

macprodan Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 This fix did not work for me until i added Platform=ACPI to the Kernel flags at the Darwin boot prompt or by adding it in com.apple.boot.plist located in /library/prefrences/systemconfiguration/ if i did not Specify ACPI it just switched the Shut down and Restart routine, lol, it mad shutdown hang and restart shutdown as normal. You could also De-Patch a kernel to suit your needs, one that already has the Restart Fix. Has, Base + AMD + CPUID + SSE pacthes apply'd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
