trying hard to keep up, i feel i'm close :thanks_speechbubble: but i stuck at something...

 

 

 

the hardware:

 

Asus P5LD2 Deluxe

PentiumD 3.0GHz (3.6GHz OCed)

4GB RAM

nVIDIA 9800GTX+ 512MB

MacOSX 10.6.6i Hazard (updated to 10.6.7)

 

 

 

 

1. i followed this guide:

 

[GUIDE] Installing Lion DP4 + GM Without USB(Video), Tested on Asus P6T SE with Intel i7 920

 

2. downloaded legacy kernel 10.7.4 and replaced the mach_kernel

 

http://www.kexts.com/view/1206-mach_kernel...el__10.7.4.html

 

3. DSDT.aml

 

10.6.6i Hazard installation didn't have the DSDT.aml file in extra folder so i installed iAtkos 10.5.7 for DSDT.aml :wacko: then i copied the file to flashdisk :) it seems it works...

 

4. i boot the system with the flashdisk i prepared, the system reboots itself. these are the last lines... (it isn't in good quality unfortunately, i recorded it first because it didn't stay enough time on the screen to see clearly, then i grabbed this shot from playback)

Now for Lion, there is the new ssse3 problem that needed another emulator (?)

 

So a Pentium D 820 won't run Lion? even with CPU strings checks patched?

 

I think I would get this error on Pentium D in Lion

 

From Xnu bug reporter:

 

Second bug:

"commpage no match" is related to Pentium D not having SSSE3 but having 64bit capability, thus the proper

bcopy routine cannot be found during commpage stuffing.

 

found this on the forum maybe i need a yet to be released kernel. trying hard for something cannot be achieved right now...
