Share this story First the 10.6.2 update to Snow Leopard with Intel Atom processors. Then when it was finally released to the masses. Fortunately for the netbook-loving Mac OS X fans out there, the OSx86 scene is only too happy to of machkernel to enable booting 10.6.2 on netbooks once more. The kernel is the deep-down part of Mac OS X that generally handles direct communication between the OS and hardware.

Speculation swirled that Apple was actively trying to keep Mac OS X from being installed on inexpensive Atom-based netbooks. However, chances are it was more likely a result of optimizations that didn't take into account Atom processors, since Apple doesn't use them in any shipping products. Russian hacker 'tea' was able to flip some bits in the 32-bit version of machkernel to make it once again compatible with Atom.

Getting Mac OS X 10.6.2 to run on a netbook involves downloading the patched kernel and little Terminal-fu to put the kernel in place. It's definitely not for the feint of heart, but then again, neither is getting Mac OS X to run on a netbook in the first place.

Forum members at InsanelyMac report that the patched kernel on a variety of Atom models. Fans of tiny screens, keyboards, and trackpads can now run the latest version of their favorite OS.

Viva la hackintosh! Or soemthing. Hopefully this will suffice until Apple releases its mythical iTablet everyone.

It won't last. Apple has thrown down the gauntlet against the hackers. It didn't need to do anything now. Apple has had well over four years to plan its response to hacking. When Apple converts to the 64 bit kernel around the middle of next year, a host of security procedures will kick in:ASLR, DEP, Sand boxing and encryption.

If the installer is placed in a virtual machine where the Hackers cannot get at it, then new procedures can check on whether the hardware is correct and that the person installing the upgrade has the authority and permission to do so. If anything is wrong, you will be directed to an Apple store for problem resolution. This won't end hacking, but it will make it much more difficult and, thus, rare.

I don't think so.

Their strategy may be more subtle than this. I'm also not convinced that they put out an Atom-incompatible update purely by accident.

Apple is testing which way the wind blows. They know they get some mind-share benefit from 'grey hat' hackers, as they also do from strictly legit hackers on.

(not to mention the overlap between each group) Apple likes to keep their options open. The history includes Apple foot-dragging with OpenDarwin, the ambiguous relations with AppleTV hackers, the late DarwinPorts and emergence of PureDarwin, even the establishment then abandonment of MKLinux. Apple plays these games with hackers, to reassure themselves no money is being lost.

They probably want to make sure they can still put out a netbook if their iPhone strategy changes. But until then they will 'tolerate' projects on the side. Dear ars authors: not all of your readers are aware of how dangerous it is to use a kernel binary from an untrusted source, so please mention such issues before giving the 'OK' to your readers to blindly start using such a kernel binary. The kernel is the single most important and omnipotent piece of executing code in your system and as such should either be compiled by the user (after code inspection) or only used when provided by a trusted source. There are a huge number of nasty things an unscrupulous hacker could have added to that binary: key loggers, making your hackintosh yet one more spam bot in the great botnets of late, lifting personal identify info, etc. Darwin is open source, so instead of taking that binary and just trusting it i would always recommend instead to take the upstream darwin source and diff it against the changes made by 'tea'. If they look harmless then compile the kernel yourself and use.that.

binary. Yeah, and what they lost with WGA? It was a virus released by Microsoft as 'Critical Update', which actually made them money because some people (who had legit windows) bought new licences rather than using activators (or calling tech support) when their Windows got borked with 'Critical update'. So M$ do not care about credibility because they never had it.

And they do not care about money because they always get it no matter what. On the other side, XNU is open source, so someone would come yelling by now if that hacked kernel is malicious.

The guy just removed hacks made by apple to brick computer when detects Atom or AMD. It is not that easy to implement malware on UNIX-based kernel.

Holy christ, stop talking. Maybe I'm just grumpy today, but fanboys of any, any, ANY sort should just straight up be banned from Ars.

I'm so completely exhausted from conversations being derailed by weaselly posts entirely devoid of value. Fanaticism begets hatred. Hatred is the root of evil. Magnavox flat screen tv. So take some of that energy you're wasting spewing pointless vitriol, and funnel it into something constructive.
