I've succeed installing and booting Mountain Lion with my Saphirre Radeon HD 6950 1 GO. I've read some post from netkas blog and i copied the AMDRadeonAccelerator.kext to my system but it does'nt change anything. ML sets up a default 3MB graphics display :(.

I've tried your recommandations but it doesn't work for me.
To sum up :
1 - i've install the radeonaccelerator kext
2 - i've copied your org.chameleon.Boot.plist

I can run ML but it says that no kext are loaded in Hardware->Graphics/Display

:(

Are you familiar with the cold boot bug? Did this happen after a restart? That's 'normal'. You need to power up the Hackintosh to the white screen you mention, and then reboot. Not shutdown, but reboot. Then the 6950 will init to full res desktop.

You have set the IGFX in Bios to first init display etc.?

I've just reinstall ML. I've installed also the kext patched. But when I boot, now I get ML desktop whith a 3MB display graphics (it says 'no kext loaded').
I don't know if i can access my GC BIOS cauz I didn't patched (IGFX). Thanks for the help.
