Add permanent boot flags in /Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist and fix your CPU/RAM stuff via /Extra/smbios.plist.

 

Refer to the Chameleon bootloader documentation and this guide:

For your smbios you can open it with something simple such as TextEdit, then add:

 

<key>SMcputype</key>

<string>1793</string>

Thanks kilroy, I'll add that to the guide. It's SMbustype if you're using Chameleon 2.0 RC4 btw.

You're funny...sorry, but I'm not going to rewrite the whole guide just for you.

 

Read the guide, then ask specific questions about the parts that you don't understand.

That part is in the guide. Go back and read it again.
