jasjeet Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I used the USB to install SL, i have a working install, perfect, Audio, LAN, and Graphics. Now i want to use the actual drive to boot from (Internal HDD). So i used the same method as i used to make the USB bootable, using chameleon files. I boot from the drive, i was surprised it worked, but when i get to the desktop, in around 10 seconds i get a Kernal Panic, and i cant make out whats causing it, even in safe mode. However booting from the USB works perfect. I have copied the kexts from the Extra folder to the Extra folder on my SL partition, this stopped the APCI_SMC_Platform Plugin error. But now KP at dekstop, unless i use the USB to boot. What am i missing? I thought i fixed it wtih CPUs=1 but it didnt work, i still get a KP on desktop Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/187402-i-cant-get-sl-to-boot-unless-i-use-the-usb/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtraa Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Try boot with -x and then install the BSD.pkg from your Leopard image. Reboot with -x and repair permissions. If that doesn't work, also try the bootflags -legacy, platform=ACPI, -f or try modbins kernel.

jasjeet Posted September 18, 2009 Author Share Posted September 18, 2009 ive been messing with boot flags -v No Ethernet, Sound works -v -f KP at desktop -v -f -x32 Ethernet works, Sound wont, BUT after a while Finder crashes, i think after i put USB in, then System Prefs wont open, Chess wont open, most apps wont open, the light comes under them in the dock but hang. I have to restart Finder to stop the crash. Also have orange drive icons. I have absolutely 0 problems using the USB to boot from, i cannot understand why this is happening. I boot USB with -v -f flags and its perfect. Can i run the BSD.pkg in normal mode? And you mean from SL image? Ill repair permissions with Disk Utility now.

jasjeet Posted September 18, 2009 Author Share Posted September 18, 2009 I installed BSD.pkg from the DVD image, then repaired permissions same problem Thing is with -v or no commands Audio works, Ethernet is detected and shows status Connected, but will not load any web pages. I have manually set the IP address, DNS, Router addresses to make sure its right, but still nothing loads. Its not the router, as i can boot from the USB and access the Audio and Ethernet with -f -v commands, whereas from the HDD i get a KP as desktop. What is modbins kernal? Seems like its for AMD pc, i have Intel Q6600.
