Really?

When I select the booting system i use the command
dsdt=/extra/dsdtpatched.aml -v
to boot

and when the error appears, i can see in text text from the KP that is in the booting command.

try -v -x UseKernelCache=No DSDT=hd(0,3)/Extra/dsdtpatched.aml

why 0,3 ? cause EFI hidden is 0,1 then Lion no dsdt is 0,2 so lion with dsdt is.. 0,3

also the capitalization maters.

[J.Picard]

I will try.

But when there is no DSDTpatched in first partition is ther no error message from chameleon?

with Wait=Yes will show no dsdt.aml found.

[J.Picard]

OK, i will do my best and try every possible chance.

[LatinMcG]

-v -x UseKernelCache=No DSDT=hd(0,3)/Extra/dsdtpatched.aml

by the way u can clone a partition with diskutility ... restore tab.. source..and destination.. done

[J.Picard]

Update:
Same error: No Hpet's available.

Question: After i flashed the bios to the old stable version, should i extract the dsdt again and patch eveything?
Or is it the same?

[LatinMcG]

extract from windows or linux or lion no dsdt to compare .dsl with others.
you do have org.chameleon.Boot.plist and smbios.plist in /Extra ?

what video card u have ? page 2 of russian error disappeared with new video card

what cpu?

enable apic again in bios.

I extract always with dsdteditor.

my plist's in the archive

Graca is Nvidia 8400 GS with QE

Cpu T6320 Core 2 duo 1,86 Ghz

Yes, i made it. Thanks for your work. Many thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After several tries i managed to boot into.
What had i done?
1. Repair privileges
2. edited boot.plist to the right dsdt
3. ForceHPET=Yes
4. Repair KernelCache
5. Delete EvoReboot from /e/e (i forgot to say)

and now a fine boot.

So how can i check if it's working?

device id is 10c3 ? i had issues with that card.. some say to edit nvda50hal and add it.
i went the easy way, got 9500 GT

hehe i knew it was going to work eventualy.
good job.

ForceHPET shouldnt be needed.. dsdt has it.

if updating to 10.7.2 boot withUseKernelCache=No  otherwise normal booting use Yes

heres the last dsdt i moded for u.

glad is working.. see u around.

EDIT: u can probably flash back to 2002 version bios safely if you have issues with usb drives.

[J.Picard]

Thanks for your help.

Actually i will edit my working partition with the bios file from your link.
Booting withour ForceHPET=Yes isn't working!

And i don't need to update because the system was on 10.7.2

And i will try your latest mod. What did you change?

And what's with your grahics adapter? should i send you my edited files?

Greetings from Germany!

[LatinMcG]

i think in HPET we need to add IRQNo 11 or 15 under the 0 and 8

my friend just got back yesterday from germany..
he had a job with uneployment offices teaching computer language.

[J.Picard]

Should i change my dsdt to add the two lines?

Must I change somthing when i add more ram?

And in which town was your friend working?

[LatinMcG]

try adding 15 first.

think he was near frankfurt.. choff housen or something

[J.Picard]

I will do to add the line, but in the meanwhile i tried to add 2GB more ram. But the system gave my a garbled screen?

What should i change?

and i think the town is called in german "Schaffhausen" :-)

[LatinMcG]

garbled screen could be 2 things.. bad ram, contact on pin.

or dsdt has changed shared ram and u have old dsdt memory amount.

boot linux live and dump dsdt with extra ram.

[J.Picard]

No, the ram is OK because the windows 7 is working fine.

But on booting I can see that the ram amount is 4096 but reserved is more shared ram 896MB.

So what should i change in DSDT to make it work. In which section should i search this part.
Or how can i compare two dsdt's?

[J.Picard]

I took a lot of time, but here's my new DSDT after upgrading to 4GB.

But my board only gives 3,13 GB free.


Update:

I made it and it was so simple. After comparing the different dsdt's there was only one entry to change in the existing dsdt-
Line 378 Bios Operation Region Adress.

So now i'm going on with the IRQ's for HPET.
Should i add in device HPET
    IRQNoFlags ()
    {15}

?????

[LatinMcG]

yes also 11 on top of 15 sometimes all u need is 0, 8 and 11 or 15 .. sometimes all 4

[J.Picard]

Can I use this also for my Inspiron 6400?

And how can I measure or control this?
