AFAIK, the corecrypto kext is in my install permanently there. Saw it in my win7 dualboot. Odd that it isn't there in yout install. Or odd that it's permanently there in my install, lol.

sorry, I have before me three external HDDs with different partitions with different OS X versions, but nowhere can I find a corecrypto.kext under S / L / E. this is not a fake. boat windows and check that, please.

Hier noch einmal auf Deutsch

Ich habe diverse externe Festplatten mit diversen OSX Partitionen und OSX Versionen jedoch kann ich nirgends eine corecrypto.kext Datei unter S/L/E finden

Can it be that, in the boot of OS X, the kernel creates a virtual corecrypto.kext? and after completion of the OS X corecrypto.kext is deleted?

Not sure what's going on there, it should be on your drive at all time.

It's odd that it's not in his install, it should be; like yours

I think it brings us nothing. it's weird. We must wait for the new patch.

Spakk, corecrypto does not exist in Lion. Only in Mountain Lion. The main subject of my work, at least for now, is to add support for AMD machines in Mountain Lion (but there's nothing stopping someone else to work with Lion)

This error manifests itself on OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion only if you boot your Hackintosh with UseKernelCache=Yes, as booting with “-f” results in a normal boot sequence.

spakk are you using a FakeSMC kext and did you do a fresh install or an upgrade to get to 10.8?

fakesmc does not work for me for versions newer than 4.0. i recommend you to use an actually working version (4.0 and before)

I have installed Mountain Lion 10.8 on my Intel - laptop, then with SuperDuper! 10.7.4 a backup on my external hard drive, then I have taken all modified AMD hardware drivers from LION 10.7.4 into folder  S/L/E and the customized extra folder from LION.

I've installed all my AMD LION versions, and all of them have worked so far

I have taken FakeSMC without plugins.

newer than 4.0 versions does not work even without sensors plugins (plain fakesmc)

I have now taken the IOAHCIFamily.kext and IONetworkingFamily.kext from LION 10.7.4.
And now com.apple.iokit.IOAHCIBlockStorage is loaded.

Now it remains to be at the following line:

yes, thank you, i have deleted the driver but no success. I think that the video card driver is the problem. I have the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 TI.
Tomorrow I will check the video card driver and if necessary revise.

No offense, but I think trying to load 10.8 kexts against a 10.7 kernel will largely be like pissing in the wind. You're going to be chasing down and trying to meet dependencies or at the very least, eliminating them all together. What will we have learned from a system with a dozen or more kexts that didn't load if it even boots at all?

We need to be focusing our efforts on getting a 10.8 kernel booted as far as we can.

I think my discovery about the fips_mode=0 is intriguing to sidestep corecrypto. Its hard to tell if its significant at this point. If I do that on an Intel 10.8 install then the next to load is AppleIntelPowerManagement. I tried a NULLCpuPM kext from a 10.8 USB installer I've been using to no avail.

Can't FIPS Mode only be set with the FIPS Admin Tools installed?

Ostensibly.

All I know is I can boot a real Mac with this option and skip at least kernel space corecrypto checks- no FIPS specific packages installed.

Hi, folks!

Here's the diff for the most successful of our patched kernels untill now, that one that panics/freezes with core crypto.kext:  XNU.diff.zip   1.2MB   12 downloads

Good morning theconnactic ,
Thanks in advance for your work. I will test the kernel, tonight. I am now at work. I'm already looking forward to the test.
:-)

For which kernel can I take your last xnu.diff?
