Same here, with System Update and Combo :(

 

 

 

You will need to remove SleepEnabler.

 

 

 

Basically what it says, enable Sleep :P, check this thread for a link to the Kext's web and an longer explanation there on how to get it working on 10.6.5

 

I tryed the file I posted but still says 10.6.4 now I tryed to apply patches with System Updater but every time I try to apply a patch, the patcher crashes :(

I just installed. The only things I needed to fix were Graphics (I have an Intel 945), which I did from another MacOS install on a second hard drive, and I needed to fix USB by installing the Modded IOUSBFamily.kext file (you can find it on projectosx.com by googling it).

 

Hello all,

 

I am new to this world and I am going to need your help here. I just installed 10.6.5 and see below, kernel panic. Please help...

 

Since you said you were new, I decided to describe the process.

 

To remove SleepEnabler.kext, first boot into single user mode by typing -s at the boot menu (if you have chameleon, it appears in the lower left corner of the screen). Then when it gets to a prompt, type: mount -uw /

That allows you to make modifications to the file system.

Look for SleepEnabler.kext either in /System/Library/Extensions or /Extra/Extensions and delete or rename it.

 

When you're done, to reboot, type: shutdown -r now

Thank you for that! I plugged my drive on another PC and removed the Kext Manually. Now I don't get the kernel panic, but SL does not boot up. I am getting the "forbidden" sign in the middle of the screen :( Any thoughts?

Boot using -v flag (or verbose) and take a pic

Get this version (from here or the link floordance posted), it works on all 10.6.x systems, but needs a kernel boot flag to be specified - that's the pmVersion. When updating you can disable the extension to avoid KP by setting pmVersion=0 at boot time, after that edit your com.apple.Boot.plist and add pmVersion=21 (for 10.6.5, etc.) under "Kernel Flags".

 

An explaination of this flag can be found in the comments in the link above.

 

Thanks that explains alot... but i still dont understand where to put the pm= flag my bootplist below..

If you boot up with the -v option, what error messages does it give you?

Add it to the Kernel Flags, like so:

 

<key>Kernel Flags</key>

<string>arch=x86_64 pmVersion=21</string>

 

 

On the other hand, I haven't got any confirmation that the "21" actually works for 10.6.5. It seems logical, but not confirmed. Can we get a confirmation?

Mine got broken that's why I removed the link, I got that one from a guy that posted it on mac rumors.

 

I'm so sorry guys I didn't know that file would break OSX

Well, shame on me but the keyboard does not respond so I don't know how to do this. When the Chameleon screen comes up, I have the "press any key to enter boot setup" but my keyboard does not work at that point. here is my config:

 

Intel DP43BF

Intel E6500 ( SOCKET LGA 775 )

geforce 8400 GS 512 MO RAM

My System Update is still ok. I typically clone or a backup or have a failsafe drive I can use to correct things. This seemed to restore ok for me, just don't know why it failed.
