Steven Razo Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I was wondering how do I update my leopard software to the version 10.5.5 that's avalaible in software update? The last time I tried to it, it grayed out my screen and told me I had to restart my comp, and then when I did it never booted back to my desktop, so I am just wondering how I go about this update? my specs are Compaq EVO D310 1.5 GB DDR 2 RAM Nvidia GeForce 5500 FX AC'97 Audio Lite-On DVD/CD Burner Pentium 4 @ 2 Ghz Mac OS Leopard 10.5.4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sysyphus Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Steven, This is how I managed to get from 10.5.4 upto 10.5.5: (1) Updated to 10.5.5 with Vanilla Kernal via the Apple Website Apple Update 10.5.5 (1.1) Download the update (1.2) Open Terminal (1.3) type: sudo -s (1.4) type: while sleep 1; do rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext; done (1.5) run the update (1.6) when request to restart DON'T, kill the terminal command (CTRL+C or CTRL+X) first (1.7) then click restart as requested (1.8) type: update -v (1.9) reboot again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erño Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Hi, What if I was to run an update with those instructions, but I had Pentium 4 processor and XNU kernel? Would the update fck up my system? Or could I update directly via apple's software update without any worries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
