I was thinking that maybe there's a way to solve the HPET error, and the reboot issue ussing strings? i mean, the same way TM was solved ussing strings, maybe instead of replace AppleACPI to fix reboot and remove AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement to fix HPET error, theres a way to solve this with the strings???
Ill try with the HPET thing looking on my mbp to see whats there... but not sure about AppleACPI to fix reboot.... ?

bob: I noticed that you have a core2 system. If you get something working, or get some good ideas on how to do it, please post the info. I would like to try to implement it on my pent. 4 system - unless your solution demands an efi enabled mobo.

Looking on my MBP, i noticed something, first HPET appears under PCI0@0/LPCB@1F/HPET, but on my hackintosh it appears as PCI0@0/HPET .. And the other thing is CPU's that on my MBP they starts at 0@0, i mean, CPU0@0+CPU1@1 but on my hackintosh they start at CPU0@1+CPU1@2...

./gfxutil -f HPET gave me this DevicePath = Acpi(PNP0103,0x0)

Yeah, same here on my hackintosh, but its diferent on my MBP, gfxstring -f HPET returns: DevicePath = PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1f,0x0)/Acpi(PNP0c01,0x0)  The weird is that LPC is the same address, but HPET on MBP is under LPC, and but its not on the Hackintosh... Also the CPU's are enumerated from @0, but on hackintosh it starts on @1 Atached, how it looks on my MBP... |

I been seeing that Apple updates the firmware to correct things, and supposedly, efi is upgraded in te process too... When these updates comes, they are for different platforms, MakBook, MakBook Pro, Mac Pro, iMac, etc, So what i mean, is that efi firmware is not for a specific platform, but diferent versions/properties/etc... So my thought is that, based on what i can see, the PCEfi8 is based on a MacBook firmware, and maybe, for more desktop mobos compatibility, we need a MacPro or iMac firmware maybe? netkas, what you think, maybe this is crazy and have no sense, but its just a thought.

PCEFI8 is not a full/real efi firmware! It's just customized darwin bootloader that sets up or add's some fake efi tables and devicetree nodes (efi runtime, device-prop etc). Minimum configuration for kernel to boot happily. It has nothing to do with your pc real hardware. The real efi firmware which is in real mac chip or come's with firmware update (firmware updates are available, you can download and extract inlcuded efi stuff) contains real efi core, drivers, apps and acpi aml tables (dsdt etc) for specific mac model (imac, macpro etc). So its very hard to include more complex stuff to bootloader because it has 64k size limit due running in real mode. Correct me if i'm wrong. |

You have almost the same config that i see on my MacBookPro.. I see on mine exactly what you see on your hackintosh... Im not totally sure, but i think maybe "just maybe" the efi has something to do here... Not sure how netkas built pcefi, but maybe there is a diference of the ripped efi on pcefi and the efi on iMac or Mac Pro, no netkas? if yes, can be good to try with the others and have something, pcefi_mb, pcefi_mbp, _imac, _macpro  |

Personally I don't think there's a need for different versions of PC_EFI for different types of PC's. EFI always works (about) the same, because an OS needs to have a single way to reach the stuff it needs.
The reason of all those different software updates is the same as why every different PC motherboard needs a different BIOS update. It's only for the BIOS (or EFI for that matter) so it knows how to handle certain hardware, support newer CPU's, memory modules etc. And this software contains specific details for specific hardware.
The software update for a MacBook for example tells him perhaps of a better way to handle the battery. Switch the fans on or off earlier or later, etc..
The software update for a Mac Pro tells how to handle all the interrupts for the PCI Express slots etc.
The software updates are totally on itself and have nothing (or not much) to do with OS X, or how OS X works with hardware detection.

Hi since my graphic string and my sound string still don't work: What exactly is it all about those configuration-tables. I can see in your screenshots that you have several tables in ioreg? I can only see two (the last two in frantisheq's screenshot starting with EB9D) here... Thanks for any help and clarifying  |

Hmm, thanks a lot. So it's something else preventing me from loading device-properties...  But it's the wrong thread to ask for help... Again, thanks |

Again, thanks probably the device pci address does not match on your system to the string you use following link for how to http://forum.netkas.org/index.php/topic,104.0.html |
