Nice one, looks promising!

Now i have couple of questions:
What Nvidia cards does the auto-detection supports, is there a list anywhere?
Does it reads the UUID directly from hardware, or generates a random one?

Hi XLR,

1) It's up to u to test it with your card "Huge Graphics Card" and tell us if this works for u.
more seriously I didn't find a list, neither I can tell u it supports 100% of nVidia cards
2) Yes it does read UUID directly (in my case) if your bios permits it

[Common Sense]

As many of u was waiting for this, let me introduce a new friend to your HDD on its way to vanilla.
I call it The Anv's Chameleon 2. Big thanks to Andy and the VoodooTeam for the hard work on this.
This is 2..0-RC5pre7

Changelog:
- Nvidia injection fix
- pciroot would not always return correct uuid in autodection mode
- Fixed the hibernation problem in boot2/resume.c
- Fixed all new booter versions with SystemType would override the facp value even if correct, now keeps the facp value if correct and no override has been done, implemented a best effort algo. for maximizing the chance to get the most correct value before we decide to use a fixed value (1=desktop)
- Fixed display cosmetics of UUID, now a convert.c file contains all conversions api, to be completed by function that we should reuse.
- Fixed SystemType would be always forced to a value, now optionally changed only if overridden
- Kept SystemID as the only option to change manually the system-id. For theses reasons, SystemId from bootConfig and SMUUID from smbiosConfig aer now DEPRECATED.
- Integrated JrCs fadt patch (kept for RC5 the existing DSDT.aml retry algo that disapeared in his patch, should be more discussed for RC6)
- Added JrCs modified convention name change to coding_standards
- Now malloc (ex. MALLOC in Asere patch) is renamed malloc(size) and is an alias to safe_malloc(size, file, line) with _FILE_ and _LINE_ prerocessor definitions
- Added a new 'Rename Partition Feature', now permitting to rename partition like 'System reserved' to a more meaningful name
- Added SystemID option permitting to change the System UUID to a fixed value.
- Added the PciRoot autodetection feature imported from pcefi10.5
- Added automatic "system-id" injection from dmi bios, also compatible with SystemID boot option and former SMUUID from smbios.plist
- Added "system-type' automatic injection (1=Desktop) plus override possibility with the new system-type option in bootConfig
- Added SMserial and SMproductname new options for smbios.plist
- Merged with asere patch, while keeping my fake_efi.c changes, and adding a new stringForKey() API, also changed the DT__XXXX() set of functions to handle const char * values instead of char*.
- Added full ACPI tables override.
- Added ACPI V1 to V4 conversion, also auto generates XSDT from RSDT if needed.
- Added force USB legacy off patch.

If u already have a Chameleon on your HDD, then use these files:  i386.zip   424.41KB   2369 downloads
with these you'll be replacing your own "boot" & "cdboot" files.

Now if u wanna go with a completely new setup, use the installer:

Hi,

Thanks for the upload it works great, hopefully we will get rc5 release soon

I noticed the memory detection is not working very well on my ep45-ds3lr (ich10r + ddr2). Aserebln bootloader 1.18 could detect the speed correctly and also the vendor of the ram. But this is of course a very minor thing.

Great release!

u said it, this is minor, and I don't think customizing few keys into smbios.plist is a hard work.
Also, this all remains cosmetic. so, enjoy your ACPI tables again

Dear valv.

Loads of Complications... and broken installation of my Snow Leopard 10.6.3 x64
When, applied to the Snow Leopard 10.6.3 installation partition.

Will post the detailed log as soon as possible.
Right now posting from my Leopard 10.5.8 install.

Apologies for the short description and input. Hope that is fine. And, my inputs will help take it further.

hi Chokra, Apologies for your mistake.

how did u proceed ? Personally, am having 10.6.3 + 10.5.8 + EFI (from where things get loaded)

BTW: those files are already compiled, u can use the installer for your convenience

[scorcho]

works great on my setup, which is upgraded from AsereBLN's boot file.

question, though. how would i go about utilizing an external theme and not the embedded one? using the theme-free AsereBLN boot file it only has to be called in the boot plist. is there anything else that has to be called/switched for yours?

Hi valv.
No apologies needed. It's all experimentation and getting things working right and at their best, correct?
Well, I've my exams going on, and trying and using your boot loader was just me taking a break after 3 hours of writing on the theory aspects of Software Project Management. Lolz...

Anyways, I usually don't prefer the "Installer way" when updating the "boot loaders". Terminal it is...Always!
However, this time I chose to make an exception and try something new (due to shortage of time), and things just became messy.

Using the installer, I choose the base install, only. NO kexts, NO FAT or HFS option, NO themes.
But enabled the HPET, UHCI, EHCI fix options.
It wrote the boot loader fine.
But upon rebooting, It couldn't load the FakeSMC.kext in /Extra/Extensions/ and in the same .mkext file.

[I think your ./postflight script extracts the kexts from the respective .mkext file, right? and then rebuilds it
[But, it doesn't work properly. The extracted kexts are corrupted or "not-full" like their original sizes". I hope you got my point ]

Now, the other messages while rebooting, was that lots of kexts couldn't be loaded just like the Fakesmc.
These were:
1) the original JMicron.kext from /S/L/E/
2) AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext
3) certain Audio kexts.. the names I forgot... by morning... ha ha ha.. (exams... )
4) The platformUUID.kext that was in /Extra/Extensions/ was extracted from the mkext.. but not correct rebuilt... making the system "non-original" and un-bootable too!
5) After everything appeared to load (or not load),
the last error displayed was:
"Apple_ACPI_SMC_platform could not load _CSD profile data....
and two more lines related to processor power management and the CSD stepping data or methods... I don't understand what it is ... and hence can't remember the exact output. My apologies... but probably you'll get the error from someone else, if they too faced the same thing. Or, in case I again faced the problem, I'll take a pic from my cell camera, ok?
6) It showed the dreaded and most dangerous message of all... "STILL WAITING FOR ROOT DEVICE"... on my perfectly working Snow installation. see my signature. Coz everything is DSDT patched and fully functional.
7) Lastly, during boot up, your boot loader pauses for 5 seconds saying an error occurred, and then proceeds.
This is not new to me... probably coz we are using hacked boot loaders, and System (SMC chip) emulators.
I've seen this error in a previous build of Chameleon (probably EFI 10.3 or 10.4 with Chameleon).
But I hadn't seen this error since I installed Chameleon R658 version and was using a EFI 10.6 boot loader file.
My Snow 10.6.3 system booted the fastest ever of all my installations.

Now, as I am writing this (very big & detailed) post / reply from my Snow Leopard , I'll say how I fixed things and got it back to normal too!

I booted into 10.5.8 and tried various combinations of replacing you boot, boot1h boot0 installation from my previous Chameleon R658 version.. but to no success. Coz still the FakeSMC, PlatformUUID and the SATA AHCI identification would not get loaded...
That means, the system would not load the DSMOS kext and then.... eventually pause showing "still waiting for root device".

I figured out that the actual AHCIPortinjector kext wasn't being loaded, coz there was none! I did not need to use it with previous boot loader at all!
So, I extracted the above kext, with IOAHCIBlockStorageInjector.kext from your installer into the /Exgtra/Extensions/ folder and rebuilt the mkext file.

Next, I rebooted using flags as: arch=i386 -x32 -f -v
And, I could then boot in to Snow Leopard finally!!! But instead of 32 bit, SL was still booting into x64 bit mode!!!!!
Checked and confirmed with the command "uname -a' in Terminal.

However, just one observation. During boot up, as you have said that the new boot loader file can load DSDT and SSDT tables during real time, I don't know why or how, but it is not able to read my tables from the BIOS of my motherboard.

Phew!.... That's the most things I can remember, and am happy to provide as much input as I can to take this Chameleon version to a working version.

[Happy Hacking!]

I have been so waiting for this release, now 1 question.. You say it supports 100% of Nvidia cards, does this mean the new "Fermi" aka 400 series cards are supported?

I've been running RC5Pre12 for at least two months. I fail to understand how this is a 'New Release'

Dear Chokra,
Try rebuilding your mkexts (from your own kexts) and copying them in the right place, see what comes. for the error message on boot, try these:
1) for Fakesmc, try replacing the value of the"OSBundleRequired" key to "Safe Boot" without quotes into the info.plist file of this kext. try to this with any kext supposed to cause problems not loading at boot-up.
2) get rid of platformUUID.kext, and see if it gets it directly from the Bios.

the message stating "Apple_ACPI_SMC_platform could not load" is normal as you did not mod your LPCB device id, this is needed for Speed-Step. this message can also show up when you chose the wrong model for your hack.

Regarding ACPI Tables loading from Bios, take a look at AppleACPIPlatformExpert section. on the right side, you can see "ACPI Tables" that got loaded. tell me wich ones u suspect not to be loaded. One thing though, do not expect to get your CpuxCST and CpuxIST tables to be loaded directly from bios with this. to get those loaded, you have to go the known way, extacting 'em first and then putting 'em on your disk.

u know, using a branch is not as using trunk section. evert dev do the changes he intends to be important for one case or the other, (that do not exist in trunk).

Do you understand now how this is different from yours.
It gives us the chance to enjoy with our ACPI again (loading DSDT, SSDT, FADT, XSDT..), getting rid of many kexts (UUID, Restart..)

Hope you'll enjoy it like I do

Now take a look at the one from the trunk

[color="#556B2F"]The boot: prompt waits for you to type advanced startup options.If you don't type anything, the computer continues starting up normally. Ituses the kernel and configuration files on the startup device, which it alsouses as the root device. Advanced startup options use the following syntax:    [device]<kernel> [arguments]Example arguments include device: rd=<BSD device name>       (e.g. rd=disk0s2)         rd=*<IODeviceTree path>    (e.g. rd=*/PCI0@0/CHN0@0/@0:1) kernel: kernel name                (e.g. "mach_kernel" - must be in "/" ) flags: -v (verbose)    -s (single user mode),         -x (safe mode)  -F (ignore boot configuration file) "Graphics Mode"="WIDTHxHEIGHTxDEPTH" (e.g. "1024x768x32") kernel flags                       (e.g. debug=0x144) io=0xffffffff                      (defined in IOKit/IOKitDebug.h)Example: mach_kernel rd=disk0s1 -v "Graphics Mode"="1920x1200x32"If the computer won't start up properly, you may be able to start it up using safe mode.  Type -x to start up in safe mode, which ignores all cached driver files.Special booter hotkeys:  F5            Rescans optical drive.  F10           Scans and displays all BIOS accessible drives.  Special booter commands:  ?memory       Displays information about the computer's memory.  ?video        Displays VESA video modes supported by the computer's BIOS.  ?norescan     Leaves optical drive rescan mode.Additional useful command-line options:  config=<file>             Use an alternate Boot.plist file.Options useful in the com.apple.Boot.plist file:  Wait=Yes|No             Prompt for a key press before starting the kernel.

SystemType=<n>          Set the system type where n is between 0..6                          (default =1 (Desktop)

Do you understand now how this is different from yours.
It gives us the chance to enjoy with our ACPI again (loading DSDT, SSDT, FADT, XSDT..), getting rid of many kexts (UUID, Restart..)

Hope you'll enjoy it like I do

hello does it work with vaio nvcards ?

flashback: the vaio doesnt have internal screen enabled

I've been running RC5Pre12 for at least two months. I fail to understand how this is a 'New Release'

AnV if your part of the Chameleon Team ... why do you carry on with your own releases ?

Either your a team player or not which is it ?

Why the attitude? He has his own branch on the Voodoo server and is experimenting with various things, as are other members of the team. Also this may not actually have come from him but been compiled from his branch.

man this is a pre-release/variant.
btw, take a look around the forum you'll find many devs doing own stuff that just didn't stick into the final release.

sorry but, I don't think many over here understand what this does. just take a look at aserebln's or ab__73 bootloaders. maybe not that much people are interested in ACPI tables load as I was thinking. maybe I should remove this topic. anyway am sharing it and am excited to know it'll come to enjoyment later on

I think it's good the new work is getting some excitement. There is a heck of a lot of new stuff being down over at Voodoo Projects, but bringing it here helps expand the testing and feedback.

Yes I am a team player but I need these features tested thoroughly before a new rewrite...
The eventual version will have this probably implemented slightly different (even more options with less code).
We've been thinking of setting some options list so it knows which .aml files to load + replace/add.
I at current haven't had much time to fully rewrite it yet.
BTW: This is the code from my branch over @ chameleon forge which needs some updating still (I'll get to that) + is still pre-release...
