PinkAdidas Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 I was following the instructions here http://www.digitmemo.com/articles/734/howt...-in-hackintosh/ After it says to reboot and to type "kernel.patched -s" after pressing F8 on Darwin...it just keeps rebooting (loop). Any ideas why? I was able to boot Leopard ToH without any hitch until I was applying the EFI patch.

atka Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Yes I had the same problem. The instructions are wrong, if you follwed them you would have moved your patched kernal to mach_kernel.patched. So when you press F8 you have to type mach_kernel.patched then it should boot the patched kernel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zanami Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Q: Installed PC_efi and trying vanilla kernel on c2d and intel-based mobo, but get reboot after kexts loaded, how can i fix it ? A: Check No Exectuable (nx/xd) enabled in your bios, otherwise vanilla kernel will reboot. here: at netkas' blog Don't ask me if it didn't help. Sometimes it doesn't because of your mobo, bios version, bios setup etc. I couldn't make vanilla kernel work on my HW until I moved osx to a guid-disk with pc_efi 7.2 installed. Check netkas' place if you're interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
