Mac OS X 10.6.7 Early 2011 MacBook Pro Sandy Bridge Update

I believe the MBP 2011 Install DVD is already 10.6.6.

I keep seeing conflicting information on this. Tony and MacMan both say that the 2011 mbp restore disc doesn't work with chameleon but people here seem to be using it successfully...

The 2011 MBP Restore disc is not a Retail DVD- therefore it can't be used with iBoot. And it's also against the rules of this site- faq.php#f0r3

Ah I see. Thanks for clearing that up Tony!

Just as well. I'm sure you and MacMan will come up with a full solution soon anyway. Do you think we will be able to use DSDT configurations for SB builds soon?

Another question. Where did you find your graphic cards ID to add to the info.plist ?

Lots of questions, lots of questions

BUMP for 5770

The Graphics card id can be found in System Profiler under Graphics/Displays.
It is the Device ID followed by the Vendor ID (1002 for ATI).

More id's can be found here:

Excellent, thanks.

ATI Radeon 5770!

Can I just add this to the list inside the info.plist under "IOPCIMATCH"

It should already be in there, at least it is in my 10.6.6 system!

It's just cosmetics, the main thing is that it's working!
