Getmo Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I have recently installed Kalyway 10.5.1 on my Dell 8300 and it seems to be 100% working with no problems running on the "tohkernel". I was having trouble booting, but realized that it was trying to boot form the standard "vanilla" (mach_kernel) and it would immediately reboot. I edited "com.apple.Boot.plist" to boot from "tohkernel" and the system boot the first time. I let the system update as normal and it performed perfectly; no problems with updating at all. My question is that I was under the impression that system software updates wouldn't work correctly unless you were running the "vanilla" kernel..... is that true?? Also it is my understanding that a Pentium 4 will not boot from the "vanilla" kernel..... is that true?? Thank you very, very much. Great job and I am seriously pleased!! --Jim Dell Dimension 8300 Mother Board: Dell 0W2562 (Intel Chipset) Processor: Pentium 4 (3.0 GHZ) (Prescott) Memory: 2.5 GB Hard Drive: 120 GB IDE Sound: Creative Extigy USB Video: NVIDIA GeForce FX-5200 Display: DELL E172FP NIC: Intel® PRO/100 VE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
