Kyle F. Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Hey guys. Because my CPU is in fact AMD I need a modified kernel. BUT I have an almost-vanilla USB Installer and the only thing(s) that aren't vanilla is the FakeSMC.kext and a modified kernel ONCE installation is complete. What I'd like to do is basically replace the official/vanilla mach_kernel located in BaseSystemBinaries.pkg with the modified kernel so that when installing, the installation will extract the modified kernel to the hard disk. I have used Pacifist to look inside the package file, but am unsure as to how I go about editing/replacing those files inside the package file. Here's where this thread comes into fruition. I'd like to get some help on doing this from any members here at InsanelyMac whom may have already snooped around in the package files before. It does not matter whether those people are Coders/Developers/Distro makers, etc...I'd like help to get this done so that my USB installer already has the modified mach_kernel ready for installation. If anyone can come forward and help it'd be highly and greatly appreciated! Thank you.

slemblod Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 I think the terminal commands pkgutil and pkgbuild should be useful to you. Have not fiddled around with them too much myself though, but hope it can be of help!
