almost fully running 10.4.11 vanilla

[funnypanks]

my acer laptop has the 10.4.11 running with vanilla kernel. using pc_efi

it runs fine. except when i swap out my intel 3945 with the dell 1490

there is a kp that reads

dependency iopcifamily.kext

dependency ionetworkfamily.kext

so can someone please tell me how to get those? thanks in advance.

also i just wanted to know if there is a way to get around having to type cpus=1 everytime i boot? can i put it into a file once so it boots with that automatically?

you are lucky, I tried the efi_pc but does not work for me and I am using a core duo 2

To fix this issue without disabling multi-core within the BIOS, load up Terminal, then type:

sudo nano /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist

edit the Kernel Flags accordingly:

<key>Kernel Flags</key>

<string>cpus=1</string>

 

This will force your Mac installation to utilize only one core of the CPU without having to disable Multi-core in the BIOS.

also would there be a way to enable the second core? like any kexts? it is a core2duo T5500. the 2 cores worked with the xxx10.4.10 kernel.

also geekbench sees it as a mac now
