rodrigocunha Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Finally I got kernelcache loading in Chameleon! 1 - Edit /usr/standalone/bootcaches.plist and set "Preferred Compression" to lzss <key>Preferred Compressions</key> <string>lzss</string> 2 - Rebuild kext caches: kextcache -system-prelinked-kernel kextcache -system-caches 3 - Edit chamaleon preferences /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist and add this setting: <key>Kernel Cache</key> <string>/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/kernelcache</string> 4 - remove "-f", "UseKernelCache=no" from kernel flags, keep it like this (add -v optionaly) and set UseKernelCache to Yes: <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>kext-dev-mode=1</string> <key>UseKernelCache</key> <string>Yes</string> That´s it! Reboot and it will work. The step 3 is the missing piece. Without it, chameleon doesn´t know where is the kextcache. ps: Using lastest chameleon (cbv2...) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxxor Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Hey! Also using Chameleon on my hack with 10.10, and was just wondering what exactly are the advantages of using kext cache? Some threads seems to say faster boots, but apart from that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodrigocunha Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 Faster boot time. boot with -v or -s is very slow without kextcache. It´s even faster with a SSHD or SSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Cabana Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Worked for me, thanks ! Note: in order to have kernel cache to load successfully, I also had to move all kexts from E/E to S/L/E: - AppleIntelE1000e.kext - FakeSMC.kext - NullCPUPowerManagement.kext Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allenwkk Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 work for me too .. need to put to s/l/e - FakeSMC.kext - GenericUSBXHCI.kext (for USB3.0 pic card driver) - NullCPUPowerManagement.kext and modify the original ionetworkfamily.kext to add the Realtek Lxxxx.kext to the plugin. and remove them from Extra/extension now booting much faster. my config: ASUS P6T SE , i7 930, Asus 650 graphic card with dual monitor.
