THIS GUIDE HAS BEEN UPDATED AGAIN.
 As of 8/25/2007: This guide can also be used to update a system from 10.4.9 to 10.4.10. It will not update from 10.4.8 to 10.4.10. The combo update will not work with these instructions. I prefer that you only update the system and not the kernel. 10.4.10 kernel is not completed yet. INSTRUCTIONS TO UPDATE THE KERNEL ARE BELOW. (only 10.4.9) ======================================================================= Requirements: 1) 10.4.9 Delta updater: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/mac...pdateintel.html 2) 15-30 minutes of your time 3) Pacifist 4) IRC client to get new kernel. ======================================================================= Steps to update to 10.4.9/10.4.10 without new kernel: 1) Open up the terminal and type "sudo -s" then "your password" then the following (line by line): CODE cp /mach_kernel /old cp -R /system/library/coreservices/loginwindow.app / cp -R /system/library/extensions/AppleSMBIOS.kext / cp -R /system/library/extensions/AppleACPIplatform.kext / cp -R /system/library/extensions/AppleAPIC.kext / cp -R /system/library/extensions/IOATAFamily.kext / cp -R /system/library/extensions/system.kext / 2) Keep terminal open. 3) Open disk utility and keep it open 4) Run the delta installer (AND DO NOT RESTART---IGNORE THE INSTALLER WINDOW) 5) Open terminal and type the following: CODE cp /old /mach_kernel cp -R /loginwindow.app /system/library/coreservices/ cp -R /AppleSMBIOS.kext /system/library/extensions/ cp -R /AppleACPIplatform.kext /system/library/extensions/ cp -R /AppleAPIC.kext /system/library/extensions/ cp -R /IOATAFamily.kext /system/library/extensions/ cp -R /system.kext /system/library/extensions/ rm -rf /system/library/extensions.* 6) Open disk utility and repair permissions for your OS X partition 7) Pray and restart the system (unless you have GMA 900 or GMA 950--> read below) 8) Post pictures of your 10.4.9/10.4.10  NB:- The first system boot after the update might take very long and cause a couple of restarts. ======================================================================= GMA 900/950 users: (Do these steps after finishing above steps) 900: Go to this site http://diabolik1605.com/DHF/iATi.html download the GMA900 package and install it then reboot. 950: install the support files from the 10.4.8 DVD or any other source that you have. ======================================================================= Kernel update steps (for the 10.4.9 kernel): Once you make sure that everything is working fine with above steps, do these. 1) Go to system>library>extensions and copy system.kext to the desktop 2) Open your update DMG and open the .pkg with pacifist. 3) Select system>library>extensions>system.kext (ONLY THIS KEXT) and click install. 4) Go to: irc.osx86.hu then #kernel the #1049 to get the link for the latest 8.9.1 universal kernel (use an irc client like colloquy) 5) Download the latest universal kernel, extract it, and rename it to mach_kernel instead of mach_sse2. 6) Put this kernel in the users folder (temporarily) 7) Open the terminal and type the following: CODE sudo -s cp -R /mach_kernel /old cp -R /users/mach_kernel / (DO NOT DO IF YOU HAVE CORE 2) rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext rm -rf /system/library/extensions.* 8) Repair permissions using disk utility. 9) Reboot and pray again... lol ======================================================================= Congratulations, you now have the complete and latest version of OS X  ***If this does not work, boot with the boot flag "old" (without quotes) Copy old system.kext from you desktop back to the extensions folder and repair permissions. open terminal and type: CODE sudo -s rm -rf /mach_kernel cp -R /old /mach_kernel ===================================================================== Disclaimer: Again, I am not responsible for any damage happening to you, your computer, your data or anything due to following my instructions. Different hardware configurations could still cause problems.
