My Shuttle always requires the following things after a re-install/upgrade:

a) Add the Device ID to the ATI5000Controller.kext for my 5750 (Sapphire)
Change the Device ID in the Apple Yukon kext for my Ethernet device to match the one the Shuttle has.

Sound is usually a couple of kext swaps and a reboot and a kernel panic or three later and then it works and I never touch it until the next time and I never do end up doing it the right way so I'd like to find out how!

But now I've noticed that I can't seem to boot the 64bit kernel, so I have to have arch=i386 specified in my boot plist.

My system has 8GB of RAM, a 9550 core2quad @3GHz, two SATA HDs and an SSD to boot from, the ATI 5750 from Sapphire I mentioned above (using GraphicsEnabler=Yes and setting the Device ID in the Apple-supplied drivers in /System/Library/Extensions).

My audio is a Realtek ALC888DD.

I have tried pure DSDT boots and the MultiBeast approach.  I'm using a fairly bleeding edge Chameleon (1078) and now I'm wondering if the issue may lie there.  I currently have a DSDT and I threw in a couple kexts for things like the nullpowermgmt, the obligatory fakesmc and something to save me from a CMOS reset.  I realize I could put those into my DSDT but I'm not confident.

I can include my DSDT.aml for my Shuttle SX38P2.
