Hi dear,

 

 

 

I've followed your guide but after the initial boot the screen gets black and nothing more happens.

 

I've the same mobo and a sapphire hd 5450 connected via DVI cable and have no injected ATI kext into usb install drive, any idea ?

[marsim]

I was able to solve by misleft as I've found that is a bug in chamaleon, the workaround is to set the display size to a supported value (by your video card).

It's not "a bug in Chameleon" that your display switches off if you set a resolution that your hardware doesn't support!

If I well understand you're asking for dual boot, in this case the answer is yes, Chamaleon does support dual booting.

Those kexts are unlinked again? Possible to get them reuploaded?

Hi,

 

I've registered just to post the kexts. I needed it again and the link was dead, luckily I had it laying aroud on my backups discs. Here is the link: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=MQNN0ZQP

 

My hardware:

 

MB:P5QL-E

RAM: 4G 800 Mhz

CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200

Video: XFX GeForce 8600 GT

HDD: 1 TB, dual boot with Windows 7 (500 GB for each system).

 

Only problem I had is that I can only boot OSX with a USB stick. Logic Pro 9 and Final Cut Pro X worked without problems.

As requested, here is a new link for the kexts:
