Hi philip_petev

I just test Enoch r2403; the kernel flag not need  

just remove this key on Mavericks and Yosemite 

and its woks on USB Installer 

<key>Kernel</key>

<string></string>

 

That's good. Hope we see that fix in Chameleon soon.

Neither Chameleon 2.3 svn r2434 or r2437 boot OS X 10.10 on my Asus P5Q Pro.......the "LEDs" for the OS X 10.10 and Recovery HD icons stay red when they are selected.....whereas with Chameleon 2.2 svn r2401there is no Recovery HD icon present but  the  HDD icon "LED" for OS X 10.10 changes to green when icon is selected and OS X 10.10 boots successfully.....I suspect this will be true for my Asus P5Q E and Asus P5N 32E SLI Plus.....

I turned on HDA Enabler on my rig and used HDEFLayoutID=01000000, but for some reason it doesn't seem to work when I tried using Piker-Alpha's HDA kext, nor did it show up on IORegistryExplorer.

 

I'm trying to make the internal HDA module in Cham work since you mentioned on Chris' Yosemite thread that I should just ditch Toleda's kext and use the embedded one instead.

r2437 works perfect 

Great job ! Thanks 

Hi, now the FileNVRAM module works fine in Yosemite?

 

Thanks, regards.

currently on Yosemite 10.10.

Graph of 'Frequency' section in 'INTEL POWER GADGET' not loading when using Chameleon 2.3 svn r2468 / r2456 ??? (numerical values of realtime cpu frequency were loading properly)

 

No issue when using r2437.

Thanks ErmaC !

Thanks and sorry, it's my mistake, this will be corrected immediately.

Hello everyone,

 

I hope it's ok to I ask this here:  is there anything that can be done to get Chameleon to boot Yosemite with the new Black Background + White Apple Logo screen? I am using Chameleon-2.3svn-r2510 and it boots Yosemite much faster than Clover!  I have already seen a post where it is possible to change the boot screen background from Grey to Black.  The problem with this fix is that the progress bar/spinner are no longer visible.

 

One thing I don't understand is this:  I read in several forums that Chameleon doesn't draw the boot screen from boot.efi.  The thing is, after I entered the flag "meter=0" in my "org.chameleon.boot.plist", the boot screen showed the spinner instead of the progress bar, which looks way better IMO.  Is this feature not being drawn from "boot.efi"?

 

I'd appreciate any help!! Thanks!!

What two images? Link?

Hi againd chris1111. 

 

I will try to see how it looks. Thanks! I will update you.

Hi again chris.

 

The images won't work. Not for what I want to do anyway.  I want the "boot-up screen" to have a "black background" with a "white apple logo" and "white progress bar or spinner" (I prefer the spinner).  The images you sent to me could be changed inside my default Chameleon's theme, I know it.  I am talking about the screen that comes up "after" the default theme screen, during OS load-up. Any more ideas anyone? Thanks!!

Bump!

I got the AllocateKernelMemory error after upgrading to r2549. I can boot r2510 normally.

 

I am using Yosemite 10.10.2. No extra modules used in Chameleon. My org.chameleon.Boot.plist is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">

	<string>Yes</string>
	<key>Graphics Mode</key>
	<string>1920x1080x32</string>
	<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
	<string>Yes</string>
	<key>Kernel Flags</key>

	<key>Timeout</key>
	<string>1</string>
	<key>USBBusFix</key>

</dict>
</plist>

Perfect job!!Hope this version will work perfectly on my OS X Yosemite 10.10.2!!!
