Moderators Jake Lo Posted March 3, 2014 Moderators Share Posted March 3, 2014 Reboot with your USB installer and run myHack. Select install Extra and point to your HDD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaa93997 Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share Posted March 4, 2014 Hello again, so i followed your instructions, and the computer booted up just fine, upon startup it has only wifi, no battery management, no sound. OS X is 10.6. So i re-run EDP, once again it reports succesful installation, once again upon reboot, the same kernel panic. What could the issue be?

jaa93997 Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share Posted March 4, 2014 I also forgot to mention, to boot with the myhack USB, i have to use boot verbose, otherwise it just hangs. I have double checked my bios settings, the one thing that i am not sure of is my processor, wich is T7200 core2duo, not just core duo. I read somewhere that the dual core setting should be disabled. Thank you for your help with the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted March 4, 2014 Administrators Share Posted March 4, 2014 check your extra folder for AppleACPIPlatform.kext it might be missing after an EDP build. addit back if missing from the bootpack and do a myfix, quick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaa93997 Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share Posted March 4, 2014 Thank you very much. I am now getting an error, about AppleACPIPlatform.kext being unusable, or damaged. No battery icon, and no sound, still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted March 4, 2014 Administrators Share Posted March 4, 2014 have you used any other installers mixed with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaa93997 Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 No sir. Restored snow leo retail dvd to usb drive, ran myhack install, install extra, and install chameleon on the usb drive. Restored because of the known bug with myhack and sno leo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted March 13, 2014 Administrators Share Posted March 13, 2014 Use myHack 3.1.2 for SL, v3.3.1 does not support it well and most users reported issues. Do not disable dual core, whatever you read was mistaken. Recommended BIOS settings have been posted in this very forum sub-section, use them. Use the appropriate D620 bootpack when you create your myHack USB installer. Once you've 1st booted into SL, go straight to SL 10.6.8 update via combo update (that you'll need to download of course) before you install and run EDP. It'll be much quicker and easier this way.
