Help with Kernel

[newbii]

Hi all,

 

I am new to MAC here, i just wonder when click customize, what kernel is best?. I tried pick all it worked, i pick 9.4 it worked as well but has shutdown issue. I just wonder what is the best to pick. Thanks

 

Also, i have a wireless Dlink DWL-520 rev E, it doesnt not show up. I think i need driver for it and i tried to put device ID, vendor ID but it doesnt work for me. So, i just wonder if you could show me, that would be much apreciated.

You must wait a little.

 

http://code.google.com/p/xnu-dev/

 

9.5 is under development, beta2c do not sleep or wake, but

othervise it works quite well with pentium.

 

So. Boot again with iDeneb_v1.3_10.5.5.iso. Open terminal.

 

cd /Volumes/xxxxxx (<-Yours bootdisk name here)

ls -la

 

( com.apple.boot.plist: kernel name must be "mach_kernel" => )

 

cp mach_kernel mach_kernel_old (copy old kernel with new name, if You want to do that)

cp -f new_kernel mach_kernel (copy new_kernel over mach_kernel)

 

chown root:wheel mach_kernel* (fix rightness...)

chmod 644 mach_kernel* (and userlevel)

 

diskutil repairPermissions /

 

reboot.

 

 

OR on the fly...

 

 

New kernel named " mach_kernel " is in Your's desktop

 

sudo -s

cd /Volumes/"Your's Bootdisk"

cp /mach_kernel /mach_kernel_bak (this is allways smart move)

 

 

cp /Volumes/Leopard/Users/"You"/desktop/mach_kernel /mach_kernel

 

(=new “mach_kernel” on desktop copy over Your's root level old kernel)

 

chown -R root:wheel mach_kernel*

chmod -R 755 mach_kernel*

 

(=fix rightness, note -R both command and 644->755 in chmod.)

 

diskutil repairPermissions /

 

reboot.

 

 

OR You put new kernel in root level with in it's own short name,

like "voodoo" , then You can in the start:

 

F8

 

and in promt You write direct and exactly the new kernel name,

which is allready in Your's root level.

 

For example: voodoo

 

Machine "side boot" now in new kernel, and You can easily try

that new kernel.

 

 

Hope this helps a little.
