[SUCCESS] Updating Lion to Mountain Lion GigaByte GA-X48-DQ6

[RPG24]

Hi,

really amazing, all working fine, just installed over my Lion installation and after reboot used Multibeast with mit standard settings for GigaByte GA-X48-DQ6 (attached). All working fine, except CMOS-Reset - it's back ... no idea how to fix, but otherwise simply ease to upgrade to Lion. Hope for a CMOS fix soon.

For Mountain Lion 10.8
you can easy fix it with that command

new AppleRTC kext version 1.5, got rid of CMOS Resets on my setup with this perl script [Edit: for arch=x86_64].
Basically jumps over the checksum updates.
sudo perl -pi -e 's|\x75\x30\x89\xd8|\xeb\x30\x89\xd8|' /Extra/Extensions/AppleRTC.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleRTC

or with a Hext editor

As per Smolderas on this thread: http://www.tonymacx86.com/mountain-...307-mountain-lion-cmos-reset-after-sleep.html

These two lines from the terminal did it for me. Now my GA-X48-DQ6 setup works great. Video is an Nvidia GT9800+.

' sudo perl -pi -e 's|\x75\x30\x89\xd8|\xeb\x30\x89\xd8|' /System/Library/Extensions/AppleRTC.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleRTC '

' sudo kextcache -system-prelinked-kernel; sudo kextcache -system-caches '

Note: the CMOS reset happens during boot, so you'll have to reboot, reset the BIOS, then reboot again to see if this worked.
