About this Mac : no system definition, no serial number

[Olivier75009]

I have a couple of smbios.plist which did work, but since I updated to 10.7.4, I do not have a serial number in "about this mac", neither a system definition (it does appear in model ID).

here is my MacPro3,1 smbios.plist :

   <key>SMfamily</key>
	<string>Mac Pro</string>
	<key>SMproductname</key>
	<string>MacPro3,1</string>
	<key>SMboardproduct</key>
	<string>Mac-F42C88C8</string>
	<key>SMserial</key>
	<string>G88451235J4</string>
	<key>SMbiosversion</key>
	<string>MultiBeast.tonymacx86.com</string>

or I did use before a MacPro5,1 smbios.plist:

   <key>SMfamily</key>
	<string>MacPro</string>
	<key>SMproductname</key>
	<string>MacPro5,1</string>
	<key>SMboardproduct</key>
	<string>Mac-F221BEC8</string>
	<key>SMserial</key>
	<string>G8031788GWR</string>
	<key>SMbiosversion</key>
	<string>MultiBeast.tonymacx86.com</string>

and here is a picture "about this mac" :

You should use the utility know as Chameleon Wizard

this is available from downloads in the Community software area. And this utility will modify or select your smbios file and you can assign a serial number to you hack

See this link for some ideas - caution this tool is very powerful so do some research ...
