umm a little more info like does it just stop there or what?

ok thanks for the pointer in general thread slice... it does work when loaded manually.. but will not load from E/E or s/l/e on its own i guess thats why he tried using a daemon.

by the way how is your branch coming along? you havent upgraded your thread here in a while... looking forward to using it.

can we pin this so it doesn't get lost in the forum

well instructions do help, i do not have your vast knowledge of osx.. you have been on the seen since 10.4 and are one of the pioneers in the hackintosh community most kext have your hand in it in one way ore another so you know way more than i about osx..

slice is it true that with new compiler you do not need dtgp methode anymore from what i read?

yes it is meklort branch i will edit. also isn't merklot supposed to merge with branch soon?

ok slice tried it but also didn't work.. but what do i do with the daemon file? maybe thats why its not working?

newest rev.747 trunk 699 based on meklort branch http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=231075 Chameleon 5 rev747.zip

when you are on the chameleon boot screen, type: pmVersion=21 that should help.... and if it does then you have to add it to com.apple.boot.plist Kernel Flags busratio=21

new dev-team release out 2 http://blog.iphone-dev.org/

i think your on the right track... do a fresh clean full install to the iomega external and see if problem persists if it does not then clone that image to the hard drive if it goes away then maybe the cd rom is flakey or dirty... it's happened to me before.. if not do every thing on another mac if you can..

mirror mode does not work only extended mode works you need to remove /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist to at least get extended mode back

do you keep using the same file to update to 10.6.6? maybe its corrupted. or your disk image is corrupted...

you do have to use dsdt in /extra folder for latest edp to work but edp should have already put it there for you... or unless you use crc's modified bios that integrates a dsdt then no you don't need it in /extra because it is read from bios... just in case there are any misunderstandings

edp didn't install a dsdt in extra for you? check in /models/d8x0-intel folder and see if there is one in there if not mariusz has one posted on the forum... d620/820

it depends on the model

Quote from kext.com: A member of Insanely, Duvel300, just posted a way to get rid of the need for any restart kext, ie OpenHaltRestart, EvoReboot, or OSXrestart. He has modified the Chameleon boot file, and also one of the SSDT tables, FADT, to allow restart and shutdown to work kext free. I tried it out, and so far it seems to be working great. You replace your boot file, and add the FADT.aml file into the same folder as your dsdt, and restart... Yes, you are replacing one file (restart kext) with another (FADT.aml) but, I think its cleaner. My boot time does seem a little better... maybe lost 3-4 spins, but it's hard to tell about that. Of course, this means you cant use Asere's boot file with his mods, but if we try this out and like it, maybe Asere can add this fix to his work? Someone also added it into PC-EFI already (see the Insanely forum post) Check it out HERE.

quote from wiki: Step 2) - Configuring BIOS Set a system password in bios it FORCES laptop screen to WAKE to input password so if it's prompting for a password when "waking from sleep" then it is working correctly.

It seems you either need a patched dsdt.. or patched video kexts from 10.6.0 disc. have you tried building as a d620 intel graphics in edp?

im pretty shure it could be fixed in dsdt... my reason is how the system responds to restart and shutdowns for example on d620 i need "restart fix" to be able to restart. now in my bios i have the option to not enter bios password on reboot. but because osx is not natively shutting down but rather "patched" it still asks for a password. also on restart i get a long pause before getting to "password screen". Now shut down, that happens to be "native" to osx i do not have to wait to enter password on powerup it goes really fast. thats the only time i should have to input my password. when waking from sleep i do not have to input password (there is an option for this provided in bios setup).. now the funny thing is in windows every thing works the way it should. only on a cold boot do i have to input system password so the problem is os dependent and os gets the info from dsdt and its other tables, i believe chameleon can read those tables if you have them but i dont know if they have to go in /Extra or /Extra/Modules but to be honest it really should be done in dsdt.. now for instance thund3rbolt, the d630 has opposite effect... From what you are explaning wich makes sense. (your "shutdown" is emulated and your restart is native hence you have the delay issue on cold boot. if we could narrow down what it is in dsdt that effects this then maybe a "hybrid" dsdt can be made one that takes native shutdown and add native restart or vice versa. but i do not know enough about patching dsdt to accomplish this.

d620 does not have that choice. you might confuse him. Internally it is IDE but with a SATA interface so its not true SATA it's converted from sata to IDE... it's "first generation technology"

that happens to me sometimes, but not all the time like you are experiencing... check bios and set to quick boot instead of thorough. well at least d620 has that option.

I've seen that already i think on gizmodo or lifehacker... I got one better I built about 5 years ago out of an old 1984 NES.. but it's as powerful as a smartphone is nowadays... lol but runs every game councle up to ps1 and xbox. made it out of a via epia m1000 mobo http://www.via.com.tw/en/products/embedded/ProductDetail.jsp?id=81 laptop harddrive and dvd burner, for powersupply i used a small inverter board that has an external powersupply brick like laptop and alot of free time oh and a dremel tool

what choices did you choose in build when you ran EDPtool.command as for bios it should work with a restore defaults. the only thing bios would prevent is sleep...
