10.6.8 no longer booting (cpu caller panic)

[LmnLm3]

So I used [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] and retail 10.6, got to 10.6.8 and have been using it for a couple weeks now.

HARDWARE:

Gigabyte GA-Z68MX-UD2H

i5-2500k

sata drives (set to ACHI, even JUST set my windows 7 drive to boot in ACHI mode for easier dual booting)

HIS Radeon 4650 (I'm the one who verified that' it's working on the wiki that you're going to send me to)

 

I just installed Rosetta and a couple of old apps that I had from college, and it gave me that mean grey "I'm not shutting down, do it yourself" screen. Haven't been able to boot since.

 

When it hangs, the last good line is this:

 

AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement: (built: .......) initialization complete

 

then I get this bad stuff starting with:

 

panic (cpu 3 caller 0xffffff80002d1208) kernel trap at 0xffffff80004fea50, type 13=general protection, registers:

RadeonMonitor: found 9498 Radeon chip

 

then more nonsense with hex addresses.

 

Would changing my ram from 1333 to 1600 do this? (it's rated at 1600) Just took off an overclock (had it at 4GHz, put it back to 3.3 with turbo enabled)

 

I hate urgent problems that I cause myself. Guess this is why people pay the extra $$$ for the logo on the box

 

Thanks in advance to anyone with any hints!!!

If you use Nullcpu and Sleepenabler you must delete Sleepenabler.. Needs to be always match the OSX version.

 

Also for Sleepenabler on 10.6.8 you need to specify chameleon boot arg "pmVersion=23" .

 

However, you have a fakesmc.kext with plugins for istat and co. Your CPU panics when the plugin for your radeon is called.

 

So get rid of that plugin :

 

boot in safe single user mode

 

-f -v -s arch=i386

mount the disk writeable

 

/sbin/mount -uw /

 

depending where your fakesmc is sitting ( /E/E or /S/L/E ) :

 

navigate to fakesmc.kext

 

cd /path_to_kext/fakesmc.kext/Contents/Plugins

 

rm -R *.*

 

repair permissions for all kexts

 

chmod -R 755 /System/Library/extensions

 

chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/extensions

 

touch /System/Library/extensions

 

reboot

 

 

you might need to reinstall the OSX 10.6.8 combo to have rosetta being updated.

 

good luck.
