29- disableIRQs() http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=255866&view=findpost&p=1677779
30 Port of original patch by: CPARM (who basically did this in boot.c) Thanks!
31 The ACPI specification dictates that the 8259 (PC-AT compatible) vectors
32 must be disabled (that is, masked) when enabling the ACPI APIC operation
33 but this isn't done (apparently) on all mobo's and thus we do that here.
34- Added AtiPorts option to GraphicsEnabler, so users can override the default number of ports. It proved
35 to be useful when used to limit the number of ports that a framebuffer registers, which seems to be a
36 requirement on laptops that can only use 2 ports at the same time.
37 Thanks to Akbar for testing and AniV also for the tip:
38 http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php/topic,1959.msg10402.html#msg10402
39- Added NVidia ION AHCI controllers dev id to AHCIPortInjector kext.
40 Forgot to mention source on the commit: http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php/topic,1170.0.html
41- Renamed com.apple.Boot.plist to org.chameleon.Boot.plist.
42- Added "ShowInfo" key (enabled by default for now), which enables/disables the display of

45- Modules can now be selected between not compiled, compiled into chameleon, or compiled as modules.
46- New makefile + configuration system.
47- Added the BOOT2_MAX_LENGTH constant in memory.h. This is now used in mboot.c to relocate the correct
48 number of bytes for boot2.
49- Added new ATi/AMD Graphics Card Enabler.
50- Added new SMBIOS patcher.
51Includes changes to "manufacter" keys, from SM*manufacter to SM*manufacturer.
52- Added module system.
53- Added automatic P-States & C-States generation for native power management.

66- Increased boot2's maximum size from 383.5k to 447.5k.
67 Updated stage 1 loaders for handling the new size limit.
68- Added alternate format for setting the default partition. The user can specify the selected
69 volume UUID for the "Default Partition" key.
70- Implemented SPD memory automatic detection and injection,seems to work really great ...
71- Factorized code to prepare a dynamic memory detection algorithm ...
72- Optimized smbios table address search
73- Optimized cursor spinout in textmode if no verbose mode is set
74- Added ram table structures definitions
75- Added getSmbios() a param permitting to select between orig and new smbios entries
76- Changed "Default Partition" behavior to accept only native system volumes or foreign partitions.
77- Added NVIDIA new NVCAP customization support and support for ION gfx cards from aserebln
78- Added ATI new framebuffers support and new cards from PCEFI10.6
79- improved ACPI file search algo by implementing a cache.
80- Nvidia injection fix
81- pciroot would not always return correct UID in auto detection mode
82- Fixed the hibernation problem in boot2/resume.c
83- Fixed all new booter versions with SystemType would override the facp value even if correct,
84 now keeps the facp value if correct and no override has been done, implemented a best effort algo.
85 for maximizing the chance to get the most correct value before we decide to use a fixed value (1=desktop)
86- Fixed display cosmetics of UUID, now a convert.c file contains all
87 conversions api, to be completed by function that we should reuse.
88
89- Fixed SystemType would be always forced to a value, now optionally changed
90 only if overridden
91- Kept SystemID as the only option to change manually the system-id
92 For theses reasons, SystemId from bootConfig and SMUUID from smbiosConfig are now DEPRECATED.
93
94- Integrated JrCs fadt patch (kept for RC5 the existing DSDT.aml retry algo that disappeared in his patch,
95 should be more discussed for RC6)
96- Added JrCs modified convention name change to coding_standards
97- Now malloc (ex. MALLOC in Asere patch) is renamed malloc(size) and is an alias
98 to safe_malloc(size, file, line) with _FILE_ and _LINE_ preprocessor definitions
99- Added a new 'Rename Partition Feature', now permitting to rename partition
100 like 'System reserved' to a more meaningful name
101- Added SystemID option permitting to change the System UUID to a fixed value.

103- Added automatic "system-id" injection from dmi bios, also compatible
104 with SystemID boot option and former SMUUID from smbios,plist
105- Added "system-type' automatic injection (1=Desktop) plus override possibility
106 with the new system-type option in bootConfig
107- Added SMserial and SMproductname new options for smbios.plist
108- Merged with asere patch, while keeping my fake_efi.c changes, and adding a new
109 stringForKey() API, also changed the DT__XXXX() set of functions
110 to handle const char * values instead of char*.
