gnubeard Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I'm now successfully running 10.4.9 in VMware, and have applied the latest (4/19) Apple security updates. 1) I started with a fresh install of JaS 10.4.8 w/ PPF1 & 2. 2) Drag AppleACPIPlatform.kext to the desktop 3) Apply 10.4.9 update, but don't restart 4) Drag AppleACPIPlatform.kext back to Extensions 5) Restart now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I still overwrite this new kernal extension with the old one i removed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnubeard Posted April 25, 2007 Author Share Posted April 25, 2007 After I installed the update the AppleACPIPlatform.kext kernal extension file is actually updated. Should I still overwrite this new kernal extension with the old one i removed? I had to. My system wouldn't boot with the new one. Additionally (and I don't know if this is significant) I always boot in safe mode (I use none of the excluded extensions in VMware anyhow). I mainly wanted the update so that I could install the newest 10.4.9 security fixes and such. Hope this helps. -gnubeard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajv Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 oops... I found this post after I installed the 10.4.9 update. Can someone post a copy of AppleACPIPlatform.kext ? [edit] nevermind... I pulled it out of the 10.4.8.AMD.pkg on the JAS install image. Now I just need to figure out how to get it on filesystem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3-S-E Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Is the version of AppleACPIPlatform.kext important to let the update work correctly? I have version 10.4.6. but after updating to version 10.6.9. I'm unable to boot in vmware 5. I've a core 2 duo notebook with nvidia 7700 pro graphiccard und 2 gig ram and as I saw that the update contains better graphics support for nvidia cards I started the update... hard fate...
