Title: Chameleon 2 RC error: 0xdeadbeef
Post by: DieselDandy on April 13, 2009, 01:58:04 PM

Heyya,

I have experienced some weird stuff with my Chameleon boot loader:

\
memory allocation error (0xdeadbeef, 0x00)


My configuration: Dell Latitude D630, BIOS A14, 4096 MB DDR2-800 RAM, 128 GB Samsung RBX SSD Drive,
Nvidia Quadro Mobile NVS135, Mac OS X 10.5.7 (9j44 - can grant access) updated from iDeneb 1.4

This happens only with chameleon 2 RC1, the older Chameleons work...


Does anyone have an idea

I've been having the same error and it's driving me nuts!
 
I tried installing SL using various methods with the Chameleon 2.0 bootloader, and tried the new RC3 version too... I keep getting memory allocation errors.  In one forum it suggested bad RAM, but I have 10.5.8 running EFI with chameleon and no problems, so it seems odd that this would be the case.

Could it be there is a BIOS setting I'm overlooking?  I've wasted 3 CDs and get the same problem with my USB drive, so I have a hard time thinking it was a bad disc.  Any help would be appreciated PLEASE!!!

TIA
Moeb

I think it may be a partition table/filesystem related issue.

Can you guys dump your partition tables please?

Same error here on my Lenovo S10e. But only if "Lenovo Quickstart" (Splashtop) is aktivated in BIOS... Any ideas?
