Hi,

 

For start my Leopard 10.6.6i by Hazard I use the commands:

 

"Graphics mode"=1280x800x32 arch=X86_64 arch=i386

 

I have tried to incorporate these parameters in the two files.

 

/Extra/com.apple.boot.plist

 

/../Preferences/System.Configuration/com.apple.boot.plist

 

but it is as if Chameleon v2 RC5 did not read these files at startup.

 

what is the mode for automated all?

Chameleon loads com.apple.Boot.plist from /E by default (if present), those overriding the one in /../Preferences/System.Configuration. So you shouldn't normally touch /../Preferences/System.Configuration/com.apple.Boot.plist. If it doesn't load, then com.apple.Boot.plist is either corrupt or has wrong options set.

My files com.apple.boot.plist from:

 

/Extra/com.apple.boot.plist and /library/Preferences/System.Configuration/com.apple.Boot.plist

 

is:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

<plist version="1.0">

<dict>

<key>Graphics Mode</key>

<string>1280x800x32</string>

<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>

<string>y</string>

<key>Kernel Flags</key>

<string>arch=X86_64</string>

<key>Timeout</key>

<string>5</string>

</dict>

</plist>

 

Where is error?

GraphicsEnabler is not a kernel flag.

 

arch=i386 is a kernel flag and belongs in the kernel flags string.

 

For example...

 

arch

i386

 

...is wrong, while

 

GraphicsEnabler

y

 

and..

 

Kernel Flags

arch=i386

 

...are correct.

yes!

 

it is in /Extra/ and the other copy is in /Library/Preferences/System.Configuration/

 

I have tried to delete file in /Extra/ but the result is equal.

 

I have tried to re-install all system Mac but the error persist!

 

Is possible add visual option in the boot menu of Chameleon with the command:

 

GraphicsEnabler=y arch=X86_64?

No, it's not possible unless you know how to modify the source code and recompile. Just use the command prompt.

 

When at the Chameleon Boot GUI, the command prompt will appear at the bottom as soon as you start typing.

 

Typing something like GraphicsEnabler=y arch=x86_64 -v should override whatever is in your /Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist.

 

It's possible that something else is preventing 64-bit kernel and drivers mode from working. Could be something installed by the Hazard distro that you are unaware of. This is one of the reasons why a retail install is always better than using a hacked install DVD.

 

On my PC OS X boots in 64-bit kernel and drivers mode by itself, I don't have to do anything. I have a Core 2 Duo E8500 CPU and I use the MacPro3,1 model identifier.

 

What CPU do you have and what model identifier are you using?

I have HP HDX X16 with intel Dual Core 2 x64 and Leopard 10.6.6i by Hazard.

 

I have installed with the kext : kernel legacy

 

 

 

Leopard see assoce my PC with Mac Book Pro 4. Sorry I am know the Mac system. Yesterday I have install the last version of Chameleon v2 RC5 r1162 but at the restart PC the string of version in top-left of boot screen is:

 

Drawin/X86 boot v,5,0,132 - Chameleon v2,0-RC4 r684

 

When I start with GraphicsEnabler=y arch=x86_64 -v I can see "64 bit enabler"
