phobes Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 I have done some pretty extensive searching for this KP and I've found many posts with the same KP or ones that seem similar, however, I've not seen any definitive answers yet. I've also tried several different guides that have all fallen short of the one listed below. I'm currently running Leopard 10.5.8 flawlessly, just curious to see what Snow Leopard is like! System Specs Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-MA770-UD3 Rev1.0 BIOS: Award Revision F8 Northbridge: AMD 770 Southbridge: AMD SB700 Onboard Audio: ALC888 Disabled - Using Sennheiser PC-155 USB Headset Onboard LAN: Realtek 8111C RAM: 2x2GB Mushkin Enhanced Blackline DDR2 1066 @ Stock Settings Processor: AMD Phenom 9850 Black Edition @ Stock Settings Video Card: eVGA GeForce 9800 GTX+ 512MB @ Stock Settings Kernel: Attempted the following, all with the same results: modbin 10A432 kernel Snow Leopard kernel by qoopz/nawcom!

scififan68 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Try using chameleon 2 RC3 from here: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=184766 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/200804-sl-ga-ma770-ud3-rev1-kp/#findComment-1350236 Share on other sites More sharing options...
phobes Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 scififan68, thanks for pointing that out! I had already done that, but it got me to thinking: Shouldn't I be booting from the drive Snow Leopard is installed to instead of the one Leopard is installed to? Turns out that was why I was getting a kernel panic! I successfully booted into SL, however, when I restarted my BIOS had reset itself, and after resetting everything and attempting to boot back into SL I got stuck at the grey apple logo. Could this have been caused by my dsdt.aml? I remember applying the CMOS fix, not sure what else it could be.

scififan68 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 It looks like fakesmc isn't loading, so i'd grab the latest version and remove any previous versions of fakesmc and dsmos.kext Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/200804-sl-ga-ma770-ud3-rev1-kp/#findComment-1350903 Share on other sites More sharing options...
phobes Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 Writing this from Snow Leopard, thanks a ton for your help! I can't believe I copied over an old version, bad file management FTL So, now that I have it up and running, is there anything crucial that I should do next? Is the process of moving to 10.6.2 Combined a pain in the arse? Are there any tweaks etc. that I should know of? Thanks again for your assistance!

scififan68 Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Just back up your kernel to another name then download the update, install it, boot with the backup up kernel. it should still work.

phobes Posted December 5, 2009 Author Share Posted December 5, 2009 I suppose I'll give it a go! Now all I need to do is get my graphics working properly and fix a restart issue Success, 10.6.2 Here's a dmesg pipe from after the update, does everything look copacetic?
