Kalyway 10.5.1 boot issue

[Vam.]

So I dled and ran the Kalyway 10.5.1 on my Dell Inspiron 6000 and it seemed to go without a hitch. However, after it restarted the computer, the HD wont seem to boot into leopard.

 

Anybody have any suggestions as to why? Any and all would be much appreciated

 

Thanks a lot

Vam.

Hey Buddy,

 

I just fixed the issue for me ... do the following

 

1. Boot from your DVD again and open terminal when the installation first screen appears.

2. check with "df -k" that your Leo volume appears

3. Open the com.apple.Boot.plist with ,

 

/Volume/<Leo Vol>/usr/bin/vi /Volume/<Leo Vol>/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist

 

and add "-f -x -legacy" in the Kernel Flags as shown below

 

<dict>
	<key>Kernel</key>
	<string>mach_kernel</string>
	<key>Kernel Flags</key>
	<string>-f -x -legacy</string>
	<key>Timeout</key>
	<string>10</string>
</dict>

 

4. Now delete your /Volume/<Leo Vol>/System/Library/Extensions.mkext file

5. copy the file from /System/Library/Extensions.mkext (this is DVD version) in location of step 4

6. From the /Volume/<Leo Vol> directory rename the existing mach_kernel to mach_kernel.BAK and copy the version on the DVD / volume

 

Just restart your machine and it should work .... once you are all setup, put message to Kalyway for solution with the non-working kernel

 

Good Luck
