    I've installed it and it works perfectly.

    I'm running the iAtkos 5 install updated to 10.5.6 running the voodoo kernel, multiboot with OSX, Windows7, Ubuntu. The drive is partitioned as GPT.

    I'm impressed. It's just a case of installing the package and rebooting. Simple.

    How do you have windows 7 installed on GPT?

    Is that not something that is normally done?
    I built the partitions in OXS, so I made the OSX partition and then a fat partition after it. Then I set the fat partition active with fdisk and installed windows. From there OSX can be installed and it's boot loader takes care of launching either OS.

    Yes, but the charmeleon 2 has implemented a new skinneable graphical, bootloader. Very similar to REfit at an original Mac.

    Does not work for me. Just upgraded from PCEFI_v9 using the installer.

    On my dual boot system, WinXP is recognized by the bootloader, but when I try to boot XP all I get is a blinking cursor (no errormessages). :(
    OS X boots fine. :)

    So what's all this about them saying it supports sleep?

    All mine does is reboot.

    Do they mean hibernate for other OSes than OSX?

    So,being the idiot I am, I tried the Chameleon 2.0rc1 and naturally, it broke hibernate.
    The good news was that Leopard still booted.
    I downloaded the installer for PCEFI v9 and deep sleep was fixed.... For all of one reboot cycle.
    Now, whenever I turn the computer on, I'm greeted with:
    boot0: GPT
    boot0: HFS+
    boot0: booting
    boot0: done
    boot1: /boot

    And it just sits there.

    Is there any way to fix it?
