Hi all. I installed snow leopard 10.6 retail to my pc (specs in signature) using the nawcom's cd 0.3.2, selecting only the legacy kernel, AppleAtiAta and VoodooHDA, plus the language ect.
Everything gone right, then i installed chameleon (the last vers.) to hdd, but snow leo wasn't able to boot. Only with nawcom's cd i could access to the OS; so I did the combo update to 10.6.8 and I installed the legacy kernel 10.6.8 v2 by nawcom. Still not booting, even with -x -f flags. I only have a kernel panic. Here it is:

Boot using the CD and install this kext using kext wizard or similar program and repair permissions. Reboot off HDD and it should boot,

I can't believe it! it works!! I booted up twice just to see if it was real! ahahahah
Well, i had to reinstall the os. this time i also repaired the permissions after updating to 10.6.8 and after installing the kernel. i also tried another kernel, the legacy_kernel-10.8.0.v2
What made it work this time? maybe the kext? maybe the kernel.
what that kext does?

anyway. thank you a lot!
now i have to install kexts for vga, ram etc. I'll write here if i'm having any other problem thank you again

Just rolled the kext back to an older version. Had to do it for my system aswell. Enjoy your hackintosh

[Bob_]

i write here again for not starting a new topic..
I have another problem that i cannot solve!   this time is VoodooHDA, i think. When i listen to anything, i hear audio interferences, and a little delay, every 5/7 seconds. it's so annoying. I've already checked "Use SSE2" in VoodooHDA control panel, and changed the output frequency audio to 48000 hz in midi audio settings.
Does anybody knows how to solve this?

What make / model is your sound card?

[Bob_]

EDIT: anyway, i'm trying to update to lion, so... maybe with lion audio works fine ahah : D no... well i will see

Try using an older version of VoodooHDA or a modded AppleHDA kext

Lion won't work fully on AMD. There are kernels for it but most are not stable enough to be used as a main System.

yeah, i googled around and you're right...
for audio, do i have to use both o just one of them?

thank you for helping me!

but, as a noob, i don't know what to do... maybe edit the dsdt.aml file and insert those lines? well, i don't have created a dsdt.aml file yet, but if i extract mine, when i search "HDEF" inside it, i don't have any result : (  ----> edit: same thing when i search for hdac, azad, azal and azalia or sbx00
where should i insert the lines?
i could try the fix in dsdt editor, it seems to be one for my sound card ---> edit: fix doesn't work, i can't apply it


edit: i attach my dsdt so, if you could take a look... : (

editeditedit: omg with this voodoohda neither guitar pro works D':


i see that in dsdt file i have several pce device, called "Device PCE#", wich # is a nuber or letter... but which of those is my sound card...?

[Bob_]

[Matt35]

What kind of smbios.plist do you have ? Sometimes it's what causes the problem...

[Bob_]

ehm... it's located in /Extra, right? I don't have any smbios.plist file ò__ò

EDIT: well, this doesn't matter anymore, i'm buying new mobo and processor (intel) to run mountain lion as it should run. so.. nothing. i hope this post will be useful for other people. if someone have trouble to get work snow leopard on this mobo, write me, i'll help you as much as i can. thank you all for the support you gave me, see you in 10.8 section : P
