Administrators Hervé Posted April 15, 2014 Administrators Share Posted April 15, 2014 Which Chameleon version do you have and what's happening exactly when you have 8Go (or more) of RAM? Did you try and boot in 64bit kernel mode with 8Go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanguart Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 If a boot with 8gb or more = System Halted. (CPU Halted). reboot. if a boot with 8gb or more but using maxmem=4096 (flag on boot) all ok, but OSx shows only 4gb. How can i boot in 64bits mode? i dont know too much about it. i am noob. thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Bronxteck Posted April 16, 2014 Administrators Share Posted April 16, 2014 can you try installing the newest chameleon boot loader to a usb stick and booting off of that to test it to see if it corrects your problem. if it does upgrade the chameleon on your hard drive.

Administrators Hervé Posted April 16, 2014 Administrators Share Posted April 16, 2014 MacMini2,1??? Have you thought of using the bootpack provided in the Precision 670 guide? It has proper FakeSMC kext, boot plist, SMBIOS plist, etc. Use Nawcom's 10.6.8 kernel v2. Like Bronxteck, I would also advise you to update to latest Chameleon boot loader (v2.2 r2377 or r2378); it's fully supported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
