autumnmist Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I successfully installed Kalyway 10.5.2 (motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-945GCM-S2) and am using vanilla kernel. I'm getting the "CFGetHostUUIDString: unable to determine UUID for host. Error: 35" error pretty much any time I launch any programs and it's preventing me from backing up using SuperDuper. I've spent the last few hours searching and I tried the following: 1) http://sneosx86.freeflux.net/blog/archive/...ension-fix.html - copied, installed, etc... did not help 2) Edit NetworkInterfaces.plist (supposedly solution #1 would make this unnecessary, but solution #1 did not work) as follows: http://sneosx86.freeflux.net/blog/archive/...around-fix.html I cannot get any changes to NetworkInterfaces.plist to stick. I edit as root, save, close the file. Reopen just to make sure the changes were saved. Reboot. Reopen NetworkInterfaces.plist -- changes have been lost and file is back to as it was originally. Edit: Apparently the source I was copying and pasting from just had a badly formatted NetworkInterfaces.plist. A different source worked fine.

noisecontrol Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I've tried both the methods from SnE but had no luck, can you elaborate a little more? Which other source?

Shadow_2k Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Try here, I got it working first try: http://forum.netkas.org/index.php/topic,83.0.html Read your NetworkInterfaces.plist and understand how it is structured, then paste the fix into the correct location. You will need to gain root rights to make changes to this file.

incabulos Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 This method breaks Time Machine. Does anyone have a Mac Pro so that we might reference their NetworkInterfaces.plist for some possible difference with an OSX86 machine?

incabulos Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 There are so many threads on this, but I'll post some more. =) You can edit the UUID in Superhai's SMBIOSResolver.kext, though it may need some tweaking to get the Apple Profiler to show all the right stuff.

I'm having the exact same thing happen to me. Thanks!
