Yep, because the kernel doesn't patch CPUIDs. Good night then, posted this from my bed with my phone, I'm too addicted to this forum.

EDIT: Sinetek, could you do your magical CPUID patches with my Lion diff, it could maybe work.

@Deltac0, can you use from agner's website the tool of cpuid to use for that? sorry if I ask stupid question
agner's website vcpuid   or this is bull {sh_it} what I think?

I think that is totally unrelevant to OS X. It has exe files inside that zip... No idea what you could do with those.

[Andy Vandijck]

I got the patch done but I can't build it... (Have Xcode 4.5.2 and needs 3.2.6 or 4.1).
Somebody with the necessary tools: please build it...
Patch is attached below...
Make it with the following command (for building x86 + x64 version)

make ARCH_CONFIGS="I386 X86_64" KERNEL_CONFIGS=RELEASE install

Thanks... next you could test...

Compiling! What is that "install" in the kernel_configs? I've always used just release

[Andy Vandijck]

install puts the built kernel (universal) under BUILD/dst/mach_kernel

Oh...

Your diff had few problems with tsc.c, but I think I managed to fix them.
Accidentally compiled first without the install flag, but now we have 3 versions.

And? How do they work?
Please test and report back...

Don't have Lion on my machine atm.. waiting for other tests

[instant idiot]

Hold on, testing soon!

anv_32_64 -F -v arch=x86_64 npci=0x3000

Kernel is LP64!!!!1!111!

anv_32_64 -F -v arch=i386 -legacy npci=0x3000

One moment please...
Boots straight to desktop. I would be posting from it, but Lnx2Mac's Ethernet driver isn't playing nice for some reason.

I think the kernel thinks we are stupid or something... Why can't he understand that we already know that he is LP64...
No idea what causes this, probably the launchd again.

Test with Lion 10-75 with:

I'm testing now with Lion 10.7.2, follow results.

PS:  I think that the basic idea of the kernel must be rebuilt. It is indeed good to know that the kernel has created the Bronzovka for Lion has sufficient service with its 32-bit, but we come as no step further. We're always in the same trap !!!!

[Andy Vandijck]

Gonna check something later.
Apparently it needs to be completely rebuilt for x64...
Will be for tomorrow though...

What needs to be rebuilt, the kernel or launchd?
Good luck with testing!

[Andy Vandijck]

I think the kernel blocks launchd for some reason...
The other possibility is dyld checks it code signature (believe they added that piece of code since 10.7) so it might need patching...
Hopefully not launchd as it isn't easy to build one...

[spakk]

Here's an other Lion kernel from our friends chriss1111 from Canada, please test this kernel and deposit them here your resultative.

BOOT USB MAC OS X LION (AMD-PC) CHRIS1111 with Lion legacy_kernel

or only Kernel:

chris1111 Lion legacy_kernel



we want to know from you how this test kernel runs with your hardware. Please write a short statement to compare with the last Andy's  test kernel.

Thanks for your help.

What if we make the Lion launchd 32-bit only?
ditto -arch i386 /sbin/launchd <tmp_path>/launchd
Would do it (in creating a 32-bit only launchd)...
If it can boot in 32-bit only it may give us a way to do it this way...
note: backup launchd first...
Test with both arch=i386 -force64 and arch=x86_64 (-force64)

So the problem is that kernel can't launch 64-bit processes?
Clever solution, even if it doesn't work. I must admit that I admire your wisdom.

EDIT: Lion 10.7 myHack usb with AnV kernel: Kernel is LP64.
32-bit only launchd is impossible to make, only x86_64 in the vanilla launchd.
I will try to patch the dyld and try i386 launchd from SL.
