Dear All,

 

I beg for your kind help getting me out of this trouble. I constantly get

reboot. This can be avoided by setting "cpus=1", which I didn't need before,

and I lost bluetooth (and perhaps other stuff).

 

Now here is a long story with details. I had successfully installed iDeneb 1.4

on X60s with the following options:

----

ACPI Kext 10.5.6

PS2Fix Keyboard

AppleAzaliaAudio

ICHx Fixed

Intel100ProVE

AppleSMBIOS MacBook

BatteryManager

IntelGMA950

----

 

Ethernet, bluetooth, video (QE/CI), power management (laptop battery) worked OOB.

 

Unfortunately sleep didn't work, so I tried several options in vain. One thing I tried was

installing Chameleon EFI from OSx86 Tools. When I rebooted, however, I got a CMOS

checksum error once and never again. (Maybe this part is unrelated to the problem.)

 

I didn't change any CMOS setup, but the system didn't boot alright. So I reinstalled

iDeneb 1.4 with the same option. After successful installation, when I rebooted, the

system automatically rebooted after

----

MAC Framework successfully initialized

using 16384 buffer headers and 4096 cluster IO buffer headers

----

 

I tried installation several times on different hard disks, but am getting the same

trouble. Worrying that the BIOS got bad, I also downloaded the newest BIOS update

from Lenovo and installed, but all the same.

 

Then I figured out that setting cpus=1 for the vanilla kernel will boot the system

beyond the rebooting point above. As a downside, I no longer have bluetooth.

 

Maybe I am lucky to get even this, but I know for sure this system X60 works

perfectly with bluetooth and sleep (without wireless, of course).

 

Any advice will be greatly appreciated. I suspect that this is not a hardware issue

and BIOS related. I also tried bunch of different options for the BIOS setting

(including the default), but no luck so far.

 

Thank you very much.

EDIT: After enabling Data Execution Prevention, the system booted properly and

recognized both cores.
