93- cparm : Added a workaroud for Xcode 4.4.x compatibility 504B030414030100630004731141000000007D0000008B00000003000B0062696E01990700020041450308001AED80DA50DF6080B0390FE095B3BC129E1FC27C104EC97897EF27CD1175766CB18C66FF42EFB7023911BDFD5E4BC9AEEC32FF3473963F70B255581D7B74DE9F
94- cparm : Fixed a buffer overflow in the plist loader
95- cparm : Ported the nvidia plist helper (less time to spend on the device id more time to code :-) )
96- cparm : Added a Sata module, known as YellowIconFixer in my branch, useful to fix yellow icon issue (can also fix an issue with the apple's dvd player application in moutain lion)

100
101- Added AtiPorts option to GraphicsEnabler, so users can override the default number of ports. It proved
102 to be useful when used to limit the number of ports that a framebuffer registers, which seems to be a
103 requirement on laptops that can only use 2 ports at the same time.
104 Thanks to Akbar for testing and AniV also for the tip:
105 http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php/topic,1959.msg10402.html#msg10402
106- Added NVidia ION AHCI controllers dev id to AHCIPortInjector kext.
107 Forgot to mention source on the commit: http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php/topic,1170.0.html
108- Renamed com.apple.Boot.plist to org.chameleon.Boot.plist.
109- Added "ShowInfo" key (enabled by default for now), which enables/disables the display of
110 partition and resolution related info, on the Gui.
111 This info may not play well with some custom themes.
112- Modules can now be selected between not compiled, compiled into chameleon, or compiled as modules.
113- New makefile + configuration system.
114- Added the BOOT2_MAX_LENGTH constant in memory.h. This is now used in mboot.c to relocate the correct
115 number of bytes for boot2.
116- Added new ATi/AMD Graphics Card Enabler.
117- Added new SMBIOS patcher.
118Includes changes to "manufacter" keys, from SM*manufacter to SM*manufacturer.
119- Added module system.
120- Added automatic P-States & C-States generation for native power management.
121- Added Booter Log Dump Tool
122- Added Booter message Logging (":/boot-log" ioreg property)
123- Removed -x32 option, use arch=i386 instead
124- Added automatic SMBusspeed detection for lga1156 core i5/7 cpus
125- Added new iMac11,1 sbios default model for lga1156 core i5/17 mobos
126- md0 code. Notified xnu when an md ramdisk is specified
127- Added rollover image support for selected device icons.
128 Use device_<type>_o.png in theme folder. Credits goes to Blackosx.
129- Revisited theme resource embedding. Using the device_<type> icons are optional with
130 the exception of device_generic.
131- Optimized memory detection speed
132- Added displaying source device and partition number for file read operations.
133- Increased boot2's maximum size from 383.5k to 447.5k.
134 Updated stage 1 loaders for handling the new size limit.
135- Added alternate format for setting the default partition. The user can specify the selected
136 volume UUID for the "Default Partition" key.
137- Implemented SPD memory automatic detection and injection,seems to work really great ...
138- Factorized code to prepare a dynamic memory detection algorithm ...
139- Optimized smbios table address search
140- Optimized cursor spinout in textmode if no verbose mode is set
141- Added ram table structures definitions
142- Added getSmbios() a param permitting to select between orig and new smbios entries
143- Changed "Default Partition" behavior to accept only native system volumes or foreign partitions.
144- Added NVIDIA new NVCAP customization support and support for ION gfx cards from aserebln
145- Added ATI new framebuffers support and new cards from PCEFI10.6
146- improved ACPI file search algo by implementing a cache.
147- Nvidia injection fix
148- pciroot would not always return correct UID in auto detection mode
149- Fixed the hibernation problem in boot2/resume.c
150- Fixed all new booter versions with SystemType would override the facp value even if correct,
151 now keeps the facp value if correct and no override has been done, implemented a best effort algo.
152 for maximizing the chance to get the most correct value before we decide to use a fixed value (1=desktop)
153- Fixed display cosmetics of UUID, now a convert.c file contains all
154 conversions api, to be completed by function that we should reuse.
155
156- Fixed SystemType would be always forced to a value, now optionally changed
157 only if overridden
158- Kept SystemID as the only option to change manually the system-id
159 For theses reasons, SystemId from bootConfig and SMUUID from smbiosConfig are now DEPRECATED.
160
161- Integrated JrCs fadt patch (kept for RC5 the existing DSDT.aml retry algo that disappeared in his patch,
162 should be more discussed for RC6)
163- Added JrCs modified convention name change to coding_standards
164- Now malloc (ex. MALLOC in Asere patch) is renamed malloc(size) and is an alias
165 to safe_malloc(size, file, line) with _FILE_ and _LINE_ preprocessor definitions
166- Added a new 'Rename Partition Feature', now permitting to rename partition
167 like 'System reserved' to a more meaningful name
168- Added SystemID option permitting to change the System UUID to a fixed value.
169- Added the PciRoot auto detection feature imported from pcefi10.5
170- Added automatic "system-id" injection from dmi bios, also compatible
171 with SystemID boot option and former SMUUID from smbios,plist
172- Added "system-type' automatic injection (1=Desktop) plus override possibility
173 with the new system-type option in bootConfig
174- Added SMserial and SMproductname new options for smbios.plist
175- Merged with asere patch, while keeping my fake_efi.c changes, and adding a new
176 stringForKey() API, also changed the DT__XXXX() set of functions
177 to handle const char * values instead of char*.
