48- disableIRQs() http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=255866&view=findpost&p=1677779
49 Port of original patch by: CPARM (who basically did this in boot.c) Thanks!
50 The ACPI specification dictates that the 8259 (PC-AT compatible) vectors
51 must be disabled (that is, masked) when enabling the ACPI APIC operation
52 but this isn't done (apparently) on all mobo's and thus we do that here.
53- Added AtiPorts option to GraphicsEnabler, so users can override the default number of ports. It proved
54 to be useful when used to limit the number of ports that a framebuffer registers, which seems to be a
55 requirement on laptops that can only use 2 ports at the same time.
56 Thanks to Akbar for testing and AniV also for the tip:
57 http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php/topic,1959.msg10402.html#msg10402
58- Added NVidia ION AHCI controllers dev id to AHCIPortInjector kext.
59 Forgot to mention source on the commit: http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php/topic,1170.0.html
60- Renamed com.apple.Boot.plist to org.chameleon.Boot.plist.
61- Added "ShowInfo" key (enabled by default for now), which enables/disables the display of
62 partition and resolution related info, on the Gui.
63 This info may not play well with some custom themes.
64- Modules can now be selected between not compiled, compiled into chameleon, or compiled as modules.
65- New makefile + configuration system.
66- Added the BOOT2_MAX_LENGTH constant in memory.h. This is now used in mboot.c to relocate the correct
67 number of bytes for boot2.
68- Added new ATi/AMD Graphics Card Enabler.
69- Added new SMBIOS patcher.
70Includes changes to "manufacter" keys, from SM*manufacter to SM*manufacturer.
71- Added module system.
72- Added automatic P-States & C-States generation for native power management.
73- Added Booter Log Dump Tool
74- Added Booter message Logging (":/boot-log" ioreg property)

81- Revisited theme resource embedding. Using the device_<type> icons are optional with
82 the exception of device_generic.
83- Optimized memory detection speed
84- Added displaying source device and partition number for file read operations.
85- Increased boot2's maximum size from 383.5k to 447.5k.
86 Updated stage 1 loaders for handling the new size limit.
87- Added alternate format for setting the default partition. The user can specify the selected
88 volume UUID for the "Default Partition" key.
89- Implemented SPD memory automatic detection and injection,seems to work really great ...
90- Factorized code to prepare a dynamic memory detection algorithm ...
91- Optimized smbios table address search
92- Optimized cursor spinout in textmode if no verbose mode is set
93- Added ram table structures definitions
94- Added getSmbios() a param permitting to select between orig and new smbios entries
95- Changed "Default Partition" behavior to accept only native system volumes or foreign partitions.
96- Added NVIDIA new NVCAP customization support and support for ION gfx cards from aserebln
97- Added ATI new framebuffers support and new cards from PCEFI10.6
98- improved ACPI file search algo by implementing a cache.
99- Nvidia injection fix
100- pciroot would not always return correct UID in auto detection mode
101- Fixed the hibernation problem in boot2/resume.c
102- Fixed all new booter versions with SystemType would override the facp value even if correct,
103 now keeps the facp value if correct and no override has been done, implemented a best effort algo.
104 for maximizing the chance to get the most correct value before we decide to use a fixed value (1=desktop)
105- Fixed display cosmetics of UUID, now a convert.c file contains all
106 conversions api, to be completed by function that we should reuse.
107
108- Fixed SystemType would be always forced to a value, now optionally changed
109 only if overridden
110- Kept SystemID as the only option to change manually the system-id
111 For theses reasons, SystemId from bootConfig and SMUUID from smbiosConfig are now DEPRECATED.
112
113- Integrated JrCs fadt patch (kept for RC5 the existing DSDT.aml retry algo that disappeared in his patch,
114 should be more discussed for RC6)
115- Added JrCs modified convention name change to coding_standards
116- Now malloc (ex. MALLOC in Asere patch) is renamed malloc(size) and is an alias
117 to safe_malloc(size, file, line) with _FILE_ and _LINE_ preprocessor definitions
118- Added a new 'Rename Partition Feature', now permitting to rename partition
119 like 'System reserved' to a more meaningful name
120- Added SystemID option permitting to change the System UUID to a fixed value.
121- Added the PciRoot auto detection feature imported from pcefi10.5
122- Added automatic "system-id" injection from dmi bios, also compatible
123 with SystemID boot option and former SMUUID from smbios,plist
124- Added "system-type' automatic injection (1=Desktop) plus override possibility
125 with the new system-type option in bootConfig
126- Added SMserial and SMproductname new options for smbios.plist
127- Merged with asere patch, while keeping my fake_efi.c changes, and adding a new
128 stringForKey() API, also changed the DT__XXXX() set of functions
129 to handle const char * values instead of char*.
