VT/NX not present on Mac Pro Early 2008 ?

Hello!



I'm trying to install HAXM ("Intel Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager") on my Mac Pro Early 2008. This software provides faster Android virtual machine.


I've got message:


"VT/NX not present


Your computer does not meet the minimum requirements for this software. Intel(R) HAXM cannot be installed on this computer. Please refer to the Intel(R) HAXM documentation for more information."


I've downloaded MacCPUID from Intel's site. I've checked that VMX (VT-x) is present on my processor (Intel Xeon CPU E5462@2.80GHz).



Additional information:

- OSX ML

- Boot ROM: MP31.006C.B05

- SMC (system): 1.25f4



I've hard that could be problem with not enabled VTX after cold reboot or smth.


Any help will be appreciated!

Mac Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

MacPro has turned on VT.


HAXM has broken installation scripts, that doesn't work on case sensitive file system.


Solutions is:

$ sudo su -

# cd /usr/bin

# ln -s true TRUE

# ln -s false FALSE

# exit

$


and run installator again.

is the newest 1.0.4 HAXM (release_1.0.4-hotfix). Works fine on Mac Pro Early 2008.
