How to Enable Kernel Cache on ML 10.8.x
Copy kernelcache from the Lion installer image to your installer image aka MLI with following command. cp /Volumes/Mac\ OS\ X\ Install\ ESD/kernelcache /Volumes/MLI/kernelcache Navigate to MLI > Library > Preferences > SystemConfiguration and open com.apple.Boot.plist file with TextEdit. Enter following string and save the file. <key>Kernel Cache</key> <string>kernelcache</string> Also you can download our edited com.apple.Boot.plist ready to rock! >>> GO TO DOWNLOAD <<< This is a screenshot about how must look.
Modified 10.7.3 Kernel for Ivy Bridge CPUs
BridgeHelper 3.0 MacMan has added support for these new CPUs to xnu-1699.24.23 (AKA the 11.3.0 Darwin kernel shipped in OS X 10.7.3) and we're happy to announce it's release. PLEASE NOTE: Ivy Bridge CPUs and chipsets are not currently supported natively by Mac OS X. We can't recommend Ivy Bridge systems yet, as there is no official support. Hence, please don't view this as buying advice. We don't recommend using a patched kernel for the long-term. The vanilla kernel is a much more desirable solution for a stable system. source
Flags for hacked kernels ONLY [ Fix ]
kernel name "mach_kernel" This flag simply tells the system to boot from another kernel available in / (aka root). fsb=<mhz> = Most of the hacked kernels include the possibility at boot to chosen FSB frequency. These flags DO NOT work with any known vanilla kernel. Do testing with the below values to see what works for you. The default value is 200Mhz. If you want different value, you have a few possibilities. Ex: kernel name "netkasSS_kernel" Ex: fsb=800 or use one of these flags below: -g = For frequency's multiplied by 100 Mhz -y = For frequency's multiplied by 133 Mhz -z = For frequency's multiplied by 166 Mhz * You can easily add either the -y, -g, or -z options to your boot.plist file or use the fsb=<mhz> flag to give it an exact figure. I have not tested the fsb=<mhz> flag but the -y gave me the correct 800fsb (100mhz x 8) and boosted my performance to where it should be in OSX. This may not change the FSB in abo...
