it looks like my Hackintosh is booting up faster. It takes now 40sec from Chimera to Lion, before it was like around 1m4sec.
Thanks so much for sharing this knowledge. bless.
by the way, i have a question maybe someone can explane me. in Multibeast 4.1 there is a option about "Generale CPU States", what does this mean? please i realy would like to know.. cheers
I am running the CustoMacMini build. Using all defaults from MultiBeast and UniBeast. A few weeks ago, I tried to trim down my boot flags to the shortest list possible. I booted without problem after removing "UseKernelCache". But maybe a week later, I guess I did notice that it felt like booting was taking longer. But two weeks later I also noticed that I had no more Graphics/Quartz Extreme Graphic Glitches! I had gotten these after installing the CustoMacMini TuneUp Kit. I didn't have them before. I couldn't figure out what exactly made the glitches go away, but I consistently did not have them. Just now I added "UseKernelCache" ("Yes") back into my Boot.plist, and sure enough, two Restarts later, the graphic glitches have returned in the Dock and in Safari.
I think "UseKernelCache"="Yes" _CAUSES_ the Graphic Glitches when used after the CustomMacMini TuneUp kit.
Here's my current string, I'll be removing, "UseKernelCache".

Guy i don't understand this kernel...what is it suppose to do with the regular boot?
I believe that is only fair that the Chameleon developers receive acknowledgement for their work.

Without these guys who did the hard work we would not be where we are today, as this is not purely a tonymacx86 effort - far from it.
So I guess if we've used MultiBeast 4.1.0 then we don't need to worry about this? :)
speed up the boot time Jame.
What's the hurry, Joe? Speed kills :-)
I just checked my just updated bootloader chameleon-2.1svn-r1713 and its there (in extra),I hope this is the one that you're talking about.
Aside from being fun, this shows passion for the craft. Cheers and thanks for this amazing resource.
LOL
Reading from Right to left
Good to know about it. I wondered already about the boot time already on my new Lion.
It still takes my machine over 30secs to boot from SSD.
great video tony!! maybe this place is the only place that can make such nerdy things so entertaining~
Hooooo! yes,

It also works well on 10.6.8.
kernel panic with this key (backtrace says driver.nullCPUPowerManagement was the reason).

oops, sorry for the code tweaking out my carrot symbols, here's my boot.plist (-) = <->:
(dict)
(key)Kernel(/key)
(string)mach_kernel(/string)
(key)Kernel Flags(/key)
(string)npci=0x2000 darkwake=0 PCIRootUID=1(/string)
(key)EthernetBuiltIn(/key)
(string)Yes(/string)
(key)Hide Partition(/key)
(string)hd(0,4)(/string)
(key)Timeout(/key)
(string)1(/string)
(key)Legacy Logo(/key)
(string)No(/string)
(/dict)
I had some bad system freezes with the enabled kernel cache flag. That's why i removed the string. Now my system is as stable as bevor.
Using the UseKernelCache for 4 Days, No Problem so far. works like a charm.
cheers
