kramer2k Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 (edited) Thanks to TorqueX86 on irc for this! He gave me the 2 lines to add, I just put them in /etc/rc... If you're having problems mounting Dmg's with 10.4.9 and replacing system.kext didn't work, try this little ditty... add these 2 lines to /etc/rc via this process 1) Open terminal 2) sudo nano /etc/rc 3) password 4) Control + V to get to bottom 5) add "kextunload -c com.apple.AppleDiskImageController" (without quotes) 6) add "kextload -b com.apple.AppleDiskImageController" (without quotes) 7) make sure exit 0 is the last line 8) Control + X 9) Y 10) Enter 11) reboot and enjoy mounting dmg's! again, thanks to torqueX86 K Edited March 19, 2007 by kramer2k Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/45700-mount-dmg-with-1049-on-amd-intel/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

kramer2k Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 pass it on. Hey guys, quick update. I figured out that just using System.kext from 10.4.9 solves the problem of mounting dmgs without having to add those 2 lines to /etc/rc I added it, repaired permisssions, rebooted, and voila! let us know if it works for you!

naquaada Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 I never had problems with mounting .dmgs, only restoring problems. Does this problem also fix the partition rewriting problem? If you want to restore a hard disk partition from a .dmg on 10.4.8 or 10.4.9 I get an error -5308 or error 19 'drive not supporting'. Disk Utility 10.5.8 can't reactivate this partition again, only 10.5.6 can do it. Would be nice to know it before I do a complete reinstall. Did anyone else noticed that 10.4.9 is slower? My Xbench cpu scores from my Athlon 64 FX-55 went down from about 90 to 72-75, that's partially lower than my 3400+ SSE2! GreetinX from the Other Side!
