Mavericks kernel testing on AMD (formerly Mountain Lion kernel testing on AMD)

Chris Etheridge · October 29, 2013

And what kernel did you use DJ Wappy? I have the exact same processor as you.

Hi is there any kernel works on AMD-FX 4180 or 4150?

Chris Etheridge · October 29, 2013

Awesome thanks DJ Wappy! Getting a friend to download Mavericks for me, and then I should be able to do some testing tomorrow

tragediana150 · October 29, 2013

If you have the Mavericks installer App make sure you can see hidden files, then rightclick the file, show package contents, go to Contents/SharedSupport and mount the InstallESD.dmg in there you will see BaseSystem.dmg, mount it also and restore it to usb using Disk Utility, then from InstallESD you copy the Packages folder your desktop . the rest is explained here

Your way gave me the same result like before. Just freezes at "hfs mounted: Mavericks USB Installer" and "DEBUG: emu: buffer data EMU: invop".

I used your flags, my flags, every combination of those flags and again freezes.

This kernel is not working with AMD Athlon X2 XXXX+

do you have the AMD Athlon X2 340?

tragediana150 · October 29, 2013

do you have the AMD Athlon X2 340?

Nope, I edited my post, sorry You've go newer model of AMD Athlon. I've got AMD Athlon X2 6000+.

p.s. my signature

what's the lastest kernel for AMD-FX series? I'm going to test 10.9 on my AMD FX 4170

Try to search last 5-10 pages. We wil get lost if we will post every kernel thousand times

Any ideas if GPU issues are nvidia full stop? Running a FX 8320 with an old 8800, want to try an upgrade from 10.7.4 No onboard graphics either.. worth my time?

theconnactic · October 29, 2013

Buy a $30 HD 5450 Silent Model from Sapphiretech and be happy, while these bugs aren't yet squashed. It will have artifacts but they will be minimal.

Bronya · October 29, 2013

I tried with bootloader Chimera 2.2.1 flag's :

AtiConfig=Vervet PCIRootUID=0 GraphicsEnabler=Yes

It work for videocard ATI5770 !

Artifacts minimal.

here minimal too,, although google chrtome has them heavy, its unusable, rest is running perfect

Andy Vandijck · October 29, 2013

I made a tool to remove code signatures from binaries.

I'm demoing it in the following video with an App Store app.

May be useful...

Download and source of tool:

Enjoy...

Shaneee · October 29, 2013

There must be definitely a fundamental difference between the Athlon II x2 340 and the lower-end models: no matter what I try, the result is an instant reboot after all kexts are loaded.

The newer model has SSSE3 ours doesn't.

theconnactic · October 29, 2013

I see. Thought there was no Athlon CPU with SSSE3 support.

DJ Wappy · October 29, 2013

ok , one more thing i noticed, i have a HD5450 Sapphire here, however that one apparently seems not usable with Mavericks?

DJ Wappy · October 29, 2013

why ?

id 68e4 , get full resolution but no QE/CI

DJ Wappy · October 29, 2013

0x68F91002

0x68E41002 gives full resolution but nothing else will post a screenshot in a few minutes gonna change graphics card

Edit: Ok Nevermind i see, although it says 5450 on the bottom it is only a rebranded 6300 thats why it wont work

Please try two kernels_rc3 with opemu_sinetek and my_opemu_with_anv on FX and OLD cpus !

Flag -cpufamily deleted !

I modified cpuid.c and working !

in terminal now show :

mach_10.9_rc3_my_opemu.zip
