Help with Performance tuning with FakeSMC & SMBIOS plist
sangahm replied to sangahm's topic in The Archive
Thanks. I was able to boot up from the USB install drive and saw that i could get to MyHack from there (I did not realize I could do that). I reloaded my Extra folder, to restore to the condition before trying the perfomrance tweaks. I'll try again when I get more time.- 4 replies

Help with Performance tuning with FakeSMC & SMBIOS plist
sangahm replied to sangahm's topic in The Archive
But where is the SMBios that I'm supposed to load? It's not in the article nor made mention of anywhere before that step. Anyway, I omitted that step (not good), moved the extra kext files to another folder and rebooted. And as you can probably guess, now it won't boot. I get the spinning apple loading but nothing past that. When booting in -x -v -F mode, i get a KP. Not sure what to do now.- 4 replies

I closely followed the instructions until I hit #10 "10) Once this is done, close Plist Editor Pro, move or copy the modified FakeSMC kext to /E/E, run myFix (full) to repair permissions and rebuild cache. Then, with Chameleon Wizard, change your SMBIOS plist to the new targeted version." How do I use CW to change the SMBIOS plist to the new version? Where is the new version that I'm pointing it to? I See in the org.chameleon.Boot section a box next to SMBios.plist and then a blank field, and 3 checkboxes underneath. But I'm unsure of what to put in there. Can anyone shed some light on this?

D430 lion 10.7.x failing to get to initial setup screen
sangahm replied to pongc's topic in The Archive
Thank you Hervé!! I spent too much time trying to follow the instructions using MyHack + bootpack on the compatibility page. I spent hours reading this forum to figure out why I was not able to get the boot screen on my D430 when trying to load Lion 10.7. Only after loading your zip file of Extras was I able to get it working. I'm not sure what is different between this zip file and the bootpack, but it worked. So thank you very much. PS: After succesfully booting up, it displayed the screen that said it could not detect a keyboard but trackpad did work. I had to plug in an USB keyboard, then didn't need it again.
