After a succesful installation of Snow Leopard on my desktop, I'd also like to run Snow Leopard on my Acer Travelmate 4001 (P4 Centrino 1.5Ghz with SSE2, 2gb RAM, ICH4, ATI Mobility Radeon 9600). Currently Leopard 10.5.6 is running on this PC, so I think Snow Leopard should also be able to work.

 

After installing to OSInstall.mpkg to disk0s3 I installed the Myhack installer to disk0s2 (Leopard) because the kernel runs from that partition at this moment. I placed the old kext files inside the Extra folder and rebuild the extensions.mkext file. Because I couldn't find the right Kext files for my ICH4 mobo, I used the ones from my leopard install. Of course I used the Snow Leopard Sleep Kernel and some other needed files.

 

At the reboot I see the Myhack boot screen, and choose the Snow disk with flags: -x32 -s -f -x arch=i386. Tried all of them. Always the same kernel panic:

 

MAC Framework successfully initialized

using 10485 buffer headers and 4096 cluster IO buffer headers

Trying to change a collection in the registry

Backtrace 0x5011b4 0x53297f 0x2f6f46c3 0x2f6e9c73 0x2f6eda9e 0x53a972 0x538ba7

Kernel Extension in backtrace (with dependencies):

Dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOACPIFamily(1.3.0)@0x2f67d000

dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOACPIFamily(2.6)@0x2f699000

 

Who knows about this panic, and how can I fix it?

Thanks to all of you!

Same Problem here.. old Gericom P4 Laptop

 

Installed Snow from within an already running Mac by using the OSInstaller trick, installed myHack over the hdd and get this error everytime.

 

Seems that some PCs really are too old for running Snow Leopard - haven't tried with Leopard yet but iPC is booting into installer without problems.
