I installed chameleon, but I just wanted to get some things clarified.
I can not find any documentation that explains how the Extra folder works, where to put the kext extensions and how to install themes.
This folder was not automatically created so I assume I do this manually. Also, in RC4 do I use a sub folder with 10.5 or 10.6 or do I just create a Extensions folder and put everthing in there. I can not find any documentation on how the Extra folder works.
Anway, assuming I correctly setup the folders does the bootloader work like this:
1. Chameleon bootloader starts
2. Checks /Extra for kexts to load instead of the ones located at System/Library/Extensions.
?
Second once I installed rc4 my USB, Battery, and a few other things stopped working, but when I use the arch=i386 flag they all work fine again. Does anyone know what could;ve changed from CHAMELEON_DFE_FORH_HARDDISK to the RC4 version that could cause this?
THanks!

Hi vinnie881
With a little searching, it's amazing what can be found in this forum.... ;)
- Documentation that explains how the Extra folder works is in the Documentation for Chameleon (http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php/topic,767.msg3337.html#msg3337) thread.
- If you don't have the Extra or Themes folders then yes, you can create them.
- I only recently discussed the 10.5 and 10.6 folders here (http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php/topic,1255.msg5707.html#msg5707)
- For Chameleon load order etc, searching for older posts brings up ones like this (http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php?topic=327.0) and this (http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php/topic,790.msg3591.html#msg3591).
I don't know the answer to your second question.
