I remember using EasyBCD, good app indeed, but like DocShadow mentioned, Chameleon should detect all your operating systems properly and boot into them.
I'm using Chameleon 2 RC1 and it detects Snow Leo, Leo and Win 7 x64. The only issue you will have with Chameleon is no more sleep in Win 7 (logoff bug). Since I use Win only as a gaming OS I can live with it though. I'm glad my guide helped you in the right direction bud, enjoy the 64bits flying Snow Leopard 10.6.7 Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3P Intel Q6600 @ 3Ghz Corsair CM2X2048-6400DHX Gigabyte HD5770 Silent Cell Samsung SyncMaster 2494SW ALC889a Creative T5400 5.1 Maxtor 380215AS Pioneer DVR-215D Presonus Inspire 1394 KRK Rokit 5 Wacom Bamboo One SL USB Guide => http://www.infinitemac.com/f57/guide...k-drive-t3705/ |

Hi Snow,
i'm trying to apply your guide to install SL on MBR. Unfortunatelyy it seems that the modification we used to do to OSInstall.mpkg doesn't work anymore. Any advice ? thanks in advance, cheers! iHack NB: P35 | SB: ICH9R | CPU: C2D E6850 3.0Ghz | RAM: 4GB DDR2 800Mhz | MB: GA-P35-DS4(rev1.1, bios F14) | GPU: MSI GeForce NX8800GT 1GB | NIC: Realtek R1000 | AUDIO: ALC889a | OS: Retail 10.5.8 & SL 10A432 | BL: Chameleon 2.0RC1(PCEFI v10) + DSDT.aml (sorry my poor English, I'm Italian) |

Hi snow,
i already tried that OSInstall.mpkg, but i think the author wants me to run the OSInstall.mpkg from a previously installed SL/Leo system. He says: "It is very important to run the MPKG not the PKG file !!!" What i want to do is to overwrite the OSInstall.mpkg in the USB stick and then install from that. Up to now no luck with any patched OSInstall.mpkg i found. thanks in advance, cheers! iHack NB: P35 | SB: ICH9R | CPU: C2D E6850 3.0Ghz | RAM: 4GB DDR2 800Mhz | MB: GA-P35-DS4(rev1.1, bios F14) | GPU: MSI GeForce NX8800GT 1GB | NIC: Realtek R1000 | AUDIO: ALC889a | OS: Retail 10.5.8 & SL 10A432 | BL: Chameleon 2.0RC1(PCEFI v10) + DSDT.aml (sorry my poor English, I'm Italian) |

Thanks for posting the guide.
I'm having a problem, if you have any ideas I'd really appreciate them -- I'm kinda stumped, and I don't know where to go from here. SL boots from USB, goes through the usual text bits about kext loading and stuff (using -v -x32 as boot options, have also tried safe mode but it just panics if I do that), and then it switches into graphical mode. I get a light blue screen, which turns after a few seconds into a light gray screen, and the mouse cursor changes from an arrow to a beach ball, and it never escapes from beach ball hell. Spins, spins, spins, for as many hours as I care to leave it. FWIW, an install of SL that I did from within Leopard also hangs at a particular point, though it's before going graphical, and it also never recovers. Slightly different outward behavior, but the hang is consistent. My setup -- Asus P5K-VM, Intel Q6600, 8GB RAM, nvidia 9600 GT 512MB, 1.5 TB SATA drive (Seagate; dual partitions, both under a TB), 250GB SATA drive (WD) with Leopard 10.5.6, and a SATA DVD writer. Everything works great using Leopard. Software -- SL retail disc (okay, the $29 "upgrade" disc rather, seems retail to me), Chameleon RC2 build 640, EFI 10.1 boot. Tried with all the kexts in this guide, also tried simplifying to just dsmos based on a post from someone else who got things working on a P5K series board with just that. Thoughts? I'd really like to get this installed, I'm hoping it will give me a bit more efficient utilization of the quad core CPU. I've got it running on my real Macs and I'm hooked on the new version of Mail (bye bye Outlook, wasn't nice knowing you, won't miss you, etc ). Last edited by Rootus; 09-07-2009 at 11:53 PM. |

@ Why go MBR anyway m8? Windows on same disk?
@ Rootus, try adding -x (safe mode) to boot and try Chameleon 2 RC1 with Boot 10.1: http://www.mediafire.com/?mytlwh2jymz Snow Leopard 10.6.7 Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3P Intel Q6600 @ 3Ghz Corsair CM2X2048-6400DHX Gigabyte HD5770 Silent Cell Samsung SyncMaster 2494SW ALC889a Creative T5400 5.1 Maxtor 380215AS Pioneer DVR-215D Presonus Inspire 1394 KRK Rokit 5 Wacom Bamboo One SL USB Guide => http://www.infinitemac.com/f57/guide...k-drive-t3705/ Last edited by Snow; 09-08-2009 at 06:48 AM. |

The SMUUID, the platformUUID and the disk partition UUID are 3 different entities and they dont need to match from what I know.
The SMUUID in smbios.plist seem to be useless. The PlatformUUID key is based on your ethernet card's MAC address and should help avoiding error 35 errors and not built-in en0 ethernet cards. (see this thread) The boot-uuid chameleon argument is the id of what disk partition you want to boot, and it should not be needed for chameleon rc3 either, but maybe netkas' pcefi 10.2 needs that to boot Snow Leopard (unsure). They are all UUIDs but they identify different things. 💡 Deploy cloud instances seamlessly on DigitalOcean. Free credits ($100) for InfMac readers.
