Unsupported CPU panic installing 10.8 with core i7 on x79 motherboard via Clover. #iATKOS #ML2

This seems to be very tricky with CLover. Some have reported success with Chameleon, but I am booting UEFI, so those solutions have not worked for me yet.

The kernel panic is :

“Unsupported CPU: family =06”

“Kernel Extensions in Backtrace:

com.apple.driver.AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement(196, 0)”







I am trying to do a new install of OSX Mountain Lion 10.8. I am booting from a fresh install partition. I’ve tried with and without a DSDT from rampagedev. I’ve tried the cpus=1 boot option, and the KernelLapics option.

I suspect that I have the wrong kexts or I am missing kexts in either

Clover: EFI\CLOVER\OEM\X79-UD7\UEFI\KEXTS

or

OSX Install System/Library/Extensions



In the extensions dir, I have tried it empty, with only FakeSMC, with only NullCPUPowerManagement, and I have tried it with all 220 10.8 kexts that are part of a 10.8 distro.



So far I always get the Unsupported CPU kernel panic. Or it hangs at the using xxx buffers after the MAC framework is initialized.



I have a blog about my whole setup and what I have done so far
