djvast Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 First of all, thanks to all who have helped out thus far. Rammjet etc; you guys rock. After many countless hours, i FINALLY have a full running 10.4.8 install thru VMware. athlon x2 4200 am2 1gb ddr2 geforce 7900gt Problem is, when i try and run OSX native, i get a kernal panic something along the lines of Panic(cpu 0 etc I boot with cpus=1 -v and it works 100% in vmware i have disabled dual core support in bios and i get a little further, instead of a panic i get to the Using 2621 buffer headers message and it hangs, where VMware would normally give the atapi message, and i would click ok and off i go to osx. Any insight to this?? thanks a ton jay Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36570-success-in-vmware-panic-on-native/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 You need to be more specific about the error it gave you on the screen. Also try -s or -x option then control-D and see what happens.

SynMoo Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Use AppleACPIFamily.kext and AppleAPIC.kext from 10.4.7. Thats what fixed it for me.

SynMoo Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 Unfortunately, in your situation, you're going to need a second install of osx to manipulate this one. Do you have two partitions?
