Finally KP are totally gone with SL 10A432 for me !
I followed this guide -> http://www.projectosx.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=464 First tweak your bios as described disable parallel and serial port Chown 0:0 your Snow partition Install SL directly from Leopard or an old SL install (probably the best thing to do if you can) Install Efi v9 Install Bootsnow file in / Install the 4 important extensions (dsmos, NullCPUPowerManagement.kext, PlatformUUID.kext, OpenHaltRestart.kext in S/L/E (you will need latest dsmos from netkas, the dsmos flie on the page is outdated) Add Gfx strings in com.Apple.boot.plist in /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration Install generic dsdt.aml in / (and edit for gigabyte cmos fix, later you can tweak your DSDT for adding ALC889/ALC888 and ethernet) Reboot on Snow disk and follow SL assistant. Your are now running SL in 32bits In the guide author stated that you also need to Reboot with -s and use Code:
mount -uw / kextcache -v 1 -t -l -m /System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/Extensions.mkext /System/Library/Extensions see lancelotu post for more info [/EDIT] Reboot again Install Chameleon (the installer failed for me but anyway chameleon seems to be installed) then use the last command in the guide to move all needed files in /Extra/ and in /Extra/AdditionalExtensions/ Don't forget the smbios.plist file with correct UUID Later If you want to install third party kext just put them in /Extra/AdditionalExtensions/ Then use chown -R root:wheel /Extra/AdditionalExtensions/ (Personally, i added LegacyHDA.kext (allow dsdt injection for audio) and the famous ioahciblockstorageinjector.kext ) Then Create the Extensions.mkext for Chameleon Code:
sudo kextcache -v 1 -t -l -m /Extra/Extensions.mkext /Extra/AdditionalExtensions /System/Library/Extensions Evertything should work, you might just resinstall bsd.pkg to correct the repair permission bug in diskutility (or install the whole thing a second time on another drive). With this method you should be able boot 64bits kernel without any problem I have just one Issue, my mouse cursor remains blue, but for trying SL it's does not matter.

Reinstalled (for the 20th time maybe)
Let me share with you my exact steps: - In Leopard 10.5.8 open terminal and type: chown 0:0 /Volumes/Snowx64 (in my case because I have another Snow installed which I'm typing from) - Mount Install dmg - Terminal: Open OS Install package - Install on Snowx64 partition - Install EFI v9 (chamelon v1012) - Place Boot file in root - Place pacthed dsdt file in root - Move dsmos, NullCPUPowerManagement, PlatforumUUI (edited with proper uuid) & OpenHaltRestart kexts into S/L/E - Replace com.apple.boot.plist with gfx string plist - Reboot - use -x64 -s to boot Now come sthe fun part fsck -fy /Volumes/Snowx64 (no such file or dir) /sbin/mount -uw / (hfs: created HFBT on Snowx64) - kextcache -v 1 -t -l etc.... command On all 4 kext that I moved in before I get these errors: kext is not authentic: ommiting from mkext Authentication faillures: File owner permissions are incorrect (must be root:wheel) Then when typing exit fsck not done root device is mounted read only - exit again got me out of all the bloody errors and booted KP occured with registration process so again no go. Any input lads, thx 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/ |

Just take ownership of files and it should work chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions Good Luck PS The author of the original guide never mentions the fsck -fy command thing so i think you can just skip this step |

From my testing of 64 bit .....
NullCPUPowerManagement causes a KP when I get to the desktop. Disabler will cause a KP as it's loading. Appledecrypt causes a KP in both 32 and 64 as it's loading. You're beating your head against a wall .... but I'm interested to see if you have any success Gigabyte EX58-UD5 - i7 920 @ 3.2 GHx - eVGA 8800GT Asus P5Q Deluxe - E8400 @ 3.6 GHz - Asus 7900GT iMac 2.2 GHz - 4 MB |

YES! YES! I got it working! Fully (almost) working Snow Leopard!
I followed the same guide as people post it above (http://www.projectosx.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=464) And thanks to Proxys, I got rid of the "No packages installed" Disk Utility bug by installing BSD.pkg from the same folder where you opened OSInstall.mpg to install SL. 64 bit works fine. A few notes: - NO MATTER HOW I TRIED, I ALWAYS had KP's and just couldn't get SL to work if I installed Snow Leopard in the same Drive as my Leopard (but in different partitions, of course). As soon as I installed SL to a separate drive, all my troubles went away. -The DSMOS.kext in the guide is outdated, just google dsmos netkas in Google to download the most recent version. - Had Airport running out of the box, but now it's not working anymore. I don't care though, because I only use wired. (Had to edit AppleYukon2.kext to get my wired internet working) - I'm still a noob, I don't know how to do certain things I wasn't able to install VoodooHDA for audio but I have an old and trustworthy driver file since Tiger era that still works (2 channel only, but that's what I use anyway) - Apple's implementation of V-Sync does not like my 8800GTS. Graphics is all choppy when miniming or maximizing. So I installed QuartzSimple from here . Then I opened it, went to "Tools > Show BeamSync Tools > Disable Beam Sync" and my graphics is smooooooooooooth as butter now (but QuartzSimple needs to be open all the time, I just hide it from the dock) I'm not an expert but I'll try my best to help people here with the stuff I know and learned throughout the process. Thanks to EVERYONE in this amazing forum :-) |

pharoleta .... are you sure you have 64 bit enable.
When you go to About This Mac - More Info - Software does it say Yes for 64-bit Kernel and Extensions? If so I'd be interested in knowing the kexts you installed and where you downloaded them from.

After trying all the different methods I came to the conclusion this is THE method for installing SL. There are a few things I had to do my own way though but I will post a guide later today.
http://www.infinitemac.com/f57/guide...1m-es2l-t3672/ !!!INSTALL FROM USB STICK OR USB DRIVE!!! (internal HD partition did not work for me) No Packages or permissions issues from the start and you have installed SL via SL enviroment and not Leopard Enviroment. If you are already going for it, do a lot of repair permissions after install (prefereably in 32bit, even safe mode) because it will fix a lot of kexts issues in S/L/E. I have another Leopard install on the first partition so that has no effect at all. Ja = Yes 1:43 = stable Good luck! 💡 Deploy cloud instances seamlessly on DigitalOcean.
