Hi could you at least release the source code for your "diffs" for Chameleon or post it up in VodoooMessage Board. i want to take a look at the diffs myself and check on how you did it or at least post them up

For your information , I did update your boot file manually and other things and it did not work out. So if you did something to chameleon do share out the source code on how you've patched it , etc

I agree with prasys, so we have a way of fixing it for all atoms and not just the netbooks that you support. I did just try to run your installer and did pick the default behavor beside the dsdt part as i allready have a pritty custom dsdt...

And it did no change on my Zotac IONITX mobo with the atom 330... I still cant boot the 10.6.2 kernel on that..

Sorry for the noob question but how do you install this AppleHDA.kext ?

I have installed 10.6.2-ComboUpdate using the new NetBookInstaller 0.8.3. RC4, it works great. Thank you very much, Meklort!

Short question:
If I boot my Mini10v I get a message like this(on the white screen, before the apple-logo-appears):

"Enabling ramdisk:
No preboot ramdisk, no loading postboot ramdisk"

What does this mean?

Otherwise, 10.6.2 seems to work very smooth.
I have realized that WLAN appears after sleep immediately. This is great, because you don't have to wait to surf in the internet.

After sleep, bluetooth seems to restart new again every time (it takes 20 seconds).

Unforatunately the boot-time of 10.6.2 is worse than on 10.6.1.
My Mini10v takes 1:55 minutes (!) until OSX appears and WLAN is ready.
I have timed this from pushing the power-button of the Mini10v, until the OSX desktop apperead and WLAN was ready in the finder-bar.

Agreed! Worked great on my Mini9.

I just ran NetBookInstaller 0.8.3. RC4 and when I went to reboot it hung up with pinwheel and didn't shut down. Anyone else see this it on a 10v?

Works for me ! Thank you, Meklort.

I agree with prasys. I tested it on my s10 using the modded boot files and it did not work.

Please post your src to this patch. So we may all benefit.

Thanks!

As stated in my blog, I'm going to upload all of the source changes to Chameleon as well as SleepEnabler later today, but the patch consists of this (more or less). It's not very nice, but it works. I've also modified ThinFatFile to set binaryOffset to the x84 offset of the mach file. I finally call patch_kernel after LoadThinFatFile is called with the kernel path.

Code:
/*
 * Copyright (c) 2009 Evan Lojewski. All rights reserved.
 *
 */

#include "libsaio.h"
#include "patch.h"

extern void* binaryOffset;

struct patch_entry
{
	char *addr;
	char byte;
	char oldByte;
};

// Kernel path by tea
struct patch_entry patch_table[] =
{
	{ (char*) 0x005E6A8A, 0x31, 0x83 },
	{ (char*) 0x005E6A8B, 0xC0, 0xE8 },
	{ (char*) 0x005E6A8C, 0x40, 0x0D },
	{ (char*) 0x00000000, 0x00, 0x00 }
};
	


void patch_kernel(void* kernel_addr)
{
	int i;
	
	for(i = 0; patch_table[i].addr != 0; i++)
	{
		char* addr = (unsigned long)kernel_addr + patch_table[i].addr - (unsigned long)binaryOffset;
		if(((*addr) & 0xFF) != (patch_table[i].oldByte & 0xFF)) 
		{
			verbose("Failed to match 0x%X with 0x%X\n", *addr & 0xFF, patch_table[i].oldByte & 0xFF);

			return;
		}
	}
	
	for(i = 0; patch_table[i].addr != 0; i++)
	{
		char* addr = (unsigned long)kernel_addr + patch_table[i].addr - (unsigned long)binaryOffset;

		verbose("Replacing 0x%X with 0x%X at 0x%X\n", *addr & 0xFF, patch_table[i].byte & 0xFF, addr, patch_table[i].byte & 0xFF);
		*(addr) = (patch_table[i].byte & 0xFF);
	}
}

EDIT:
Just a note: I'd wait for a few users to confirm that this works as I have not extensively tested this out. It's been tested using the 10.6.1 and 10.6.2 kernels, however I may have missed some things. Let me know if it works or doesn't (in which case I'd pull it).
I patched the RC4 installer with the Speedstep files first.
Followed the instructions as above.
It JUST WORKS!
Note: Speedstep works well with 10.6.2.

meklort et al, what would we do without you?!
