mac.nub, are you using EFI boot or have you modified the kernel?

[domino]

Yea. Didn't want to post my findings in the front news. So here it is.

 

10.4.11 Update for SSE2 motherboard

 

1. Download MacOSXUpd10.4.11Intel.dmg ~130mb

2. copy /System/Library/Extensions folder to root

3. copy mach_kernel to mach_kernel.sse2

4. apply update BUT NOT RESTART

5. rename mach_kernel to mach_kernel.10411

6. copy mach_kernel.sse2 to mach_kernel

7. rename /System/Library/Extensions to /System/Library/Extensions.10411

8. copy /Extensions directory from root to the /System/Library folder

9. Apply System profiler patch: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=401401

10. Repair permissions

 

Restart

 

 

Last step: Find hacked 10.4.11 SSE2 kernel and apply it.

The ~28 Mb Security Update installed OK; still worked after reboot.

Installing the ~135 Mb OSX 10.4.11 update resulted in a continually rebooting system on my SSE3 VIA chipset 10.4.10 install.

Note: the 10.4.10 install had required using the "Universal 8.9.4 kernel". The default kernel does not work with my VIA chipset system.

Worked like a charm. Now all i need is the updated kernal

Proteo - I am using the EFI patch and stock kernel, although there is also a modified (SSE2/AMD) version already complete.

Cool !!! this worked gr8..

 

1) Backup these files ...

/system/library/coreservices/loginwindow.app

/system/library/extensions/AppleSMBIOS.kext

/system/library/extensions/AppleACPIplatform.kext

/system/library/extensions/AppleAPIC.kext

/system/library/extensions/IOATAFamily.kext

/system/library/extensions/system.kext

 

 

2) If you are using 900GMA / 950 GMA controller, keep Diabolikgma9XX.pkg handy.... (950/900).

 

3) After the installation, restore the files to the original location & run diabolikgma patch

 

4) Now repair Disk Permissions using diskutil.

 

5) reboot it...

Mine crashed right before IOAPIC message with EFI and stock kernel.

Recovering from backup, then will try modified kernel.

 

mac.nub, what kext did you modify to get it to work?

 

EDIT-- System halts right after "Started CPU 01" with stock kernel, hacked kernel, and old kernel from mac.nub 10.4.10

 

Halts at same spot with cpus=1, except it doesn't start 2nd core.

 

EDIT-- found a way to boot. Guide here:

Are you going to think of making a complete 10.4.11 + EFI Bootloader DVD? (FOr SSE2 too ?)

Hai

 

Where do u get those creative suite iconz plz.

[Synaesthesia]

Hi guys, please help me! Can anyone send me the kernel (PM me), I can't download it via Rapidshare, I can't download anything from there! I want a kernel that will run 10.4.11 for me, currently I am running uphuck 10.4.9 with Netkas 8.9.1 kernel.

 

edit: Never mind, I'll try it on my current kernel

i've followed the guide from osx86scene to upgrade from 4.10 to 4.11:

http://forum.osx86scene.com/viewtopic.php?...b73441a77e7a6f9

 

all worked, no need to reinstall drivers, but takes a little while for spotlight to update my contents on the HDD after reboot.

 

one minor problem though, the sound card (ASROCK onboard AC97) now makes continuous buzzing noise. it gets so irritating in the end, that i restored 4.10 from my clone hdd... then i think i dun really miss much except safari3 and a bunch of security updates... anyone knows where to download these security updates included in the 4.11 upgrade?
