Delta, are you sure it has to be 64-bit kernel space instead of 64-bit user land?

Hmm, i'll try to install Adobe CS6 on my AMD hackint0sh later today... let's know for sure.

I think it is. However, my AMD with Sinetek can't run Photoshop CS6. Splash screen and closes... But I think it doesn't open on 64-bit userland... Not sure.

itunes and iphoto is just able to start with the unpatched quicktime components but then the old issues appear. (crash on iphoto import)

If i patch the components this error appear on start:

I'll just leave a link to my tutorial here, maybe someone finds it useful:

And little "AMD Development" advertising on the end...

Hi all!

I know one thing that's been missing from our testing is a legacy 64-bit Intel CPU, so I proudly introduce a 3.4 GHz Intel Pentium D!



With Sinetek's sinetek_pp, the system reboots instantly.

With Sinetek's Sinetek_64, it hangs on a black screen.

With Nawcom's legendary kernel it does, of course, boot straight to the desktop in full 64-bit kernel and user-land.

Are you sure it's a x86_64 kernel? Or i386 with -force64?

[Deltac0]

Nawcom's legacy_kernel is only 64-bit userland.

[instant idiot]

I cannot be more sure than Kernel is LP64. The only kernel flag I used was -v. In System Profiler it shows "64-bit Kernel and Extentions: Yes."

[Duran Keeley]

I wanna start testing again,

Currently I have the Nawcom Legacy kernel (which I have to use cpus=1 cause I have a sucky TSC sync problem! and VoodooTSCSyncAMD breaks the system!)

System Spec:
ECS A785GM-AD3
AMD Phenom II X6 1055T
AMD Radeon HD6570
DDR3 8GB

With the Sinetek Kernel I get a KP, booting with arch=i386 maxmem=4096 cpus=1 works on the nawcom kernel.
Sinetek booting with mach_kernel arch=x86_64 maxmem=4096 cpus=1 -v enters this infiniant loop of a KP and booting without cpus=1 gives me a warning that it is out of sync, will post a screenshot of both now.

Are you sure that is Nawcom's kernel? I've always thought it can only boot i386 -force64.
That's why it was so "amazing" step when Sinetek got x86_64 SL booting on AMD.

Sinetek's kernel is the first kernel that has booted x86_64 successfully on multiple machines, I recommend double checking the kernel.

Sinetek's kernel doesn't support arch=i386. Use x86_64 and specify the correct busratio with "busratio=xx", and replace xx with your busratio.
If your processor is running stock / 2.8Ghz, it should be 14.

[instant idiot]

Yes, I am absolutely sure.

As Deltac0 allready said, the new kernel is just 64 bit, so please use arch=x86_64

Cause of the cpus=1 problem. Did you allready edit your dsdt? You need to remove the alias entry´s in the cpu section.

Hi thanks for your help, I am using the kernel flag arch=x86_64, tried busratio=14 & 17. but that brought up the same KP as for the above conversation nawcom only boots with i386, download kext utility and in KernelMode: it should say i386 if you are using the nawcom kernel

DSDT edit's I am HOPELESS AT!

Ok so installed the TSCsync from iATKOS ML2 (found in the packages and installed it into snow) works on the nawcom kernel when i try boot the Sinetek kernel it starts going out of sync again but got a flash of a messed up graphic screen before it rebooted.

Hey here is a screenshot of my Kext Utility

Can you upload that kernel somewhere?

[instant idiot]

uname -a while running that kernel on the Pentium D:

OK, totally my fault! Did not patch the dyld. Sinetek you legend! Now for Mountain Lion

[MadMungo]

Hey guys is there a version out that supports the FX (Bulldozer/PileDriver) range of cpus yet?

[alaskantraveler]

I am running Sinetek's sinetek_pp kernel on my setup.
sinetek_pp -v -f busratio=15 arch=x86_64 for kernel flags.
Can't run some programs, just flashscreen then quit. ITunes is one of them. And Safari quits also.
amd_insn_patcher doesn't work for me for some reason (under legacy_kernel_V8 -v cpus=1 busratio=15 arch=i386 -force64 GraphicsEnabler=Yes PCIRootUID=1)

so I am open to suggestions at this point Simple ones, I tend to confuse easy sometimes.

does the quicktime.component have platform issues or is it universal. Meaning would one of yours work on my setup?

[kyh3im]

Hello, I have some problem with sinetec_pp 10.6.8 amd kernel. After then my system booted, my mouse and keyboard don't make any affect on desktop (desktop is not freezed, i can see how my dropbox syncs ).
Arguments like -x didn't help
I had patched dydl like it says here bud had errors
amd_insn_patcher /usr/lib/libSystem.B_profile.dylib pat/libSystem.B_profile.dylib
Patching universal binary (3 architectures)
Patching X86_64 part (processor 16777223, architecture 0)
No code signature found, skipping patch
Patch report (1): 0 instructions patched, 437 bad instructions, patches bypassed: NO
Patching I386 part (processor 7, architecture 1)
No code signature found, skipping patch
Patch report (2): 0 instructions patched, 33 bad instructions, patches bypassed: NO
Skipping non-Intel architecture (2)
No patches found, not generating output file

now i have only 2 files without errors (dyld and libSystem.B_profile.dylib). I did it by using amd_insn_patcher V1.03

[alaskantraveler]

Sinetek, I hope you don't mind, I posted both the first and _pp kernels you developed over at http://www.osx86.net/ in the /downloads/kernels section so more people can enjoy the wonderfulness of 64bit on AMD.

And thank you very much for these. Very much appreciated!

great job MR Sinetek  Iam build AMD usb installer 10.7 lion  with your kernel and Iam comes from montreal to
