So googled it and found a nice article on debugging kext @ apple developer site (http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Darwin/Conceptual/KEXTConcept/KEXTC...). I've setup the two mac machines and facing an issue whil following the step -- On Target Machine, Break into Kernel Debugging Mode. I've tried to press the Power button for 3 secs and tried various alternatives specified, even then my Target Machine is not breaking into Kernel Debug Mode. Are you sure you set the boot-args correctly? It only takes a momentary touch of the power button to get the machine into debug mode. If "nvram -p | grep boot-args" doesn't show it, then it wasn't set. The command you want is: sudo nvram boot-args="debug=0x144 -v" This will also enable verbose mode when you boot. If you're building a kext you probably want verbose mode enabled. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
