dakine Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 You must be very careful when installing updates from Software Update, some of the updates will break your hackintosh installation, which may require you to reinstall your OS. The 10.5.2 update would most likely break your system unless you follow precise installation instructions.Before installing any update from Software Update, you should search InsanelyMac first to find out if the update is safe to install on your particular version of Leopard.You must be very careful when installing updates from Software Update, some of the updates will break your hackintosh installation, which may require you to reinstall your OS.

Manix Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 You're also especially in danger of breaking your system if you're running on an AMD machine, so be sure to grab all necessary patches. The only things I see that have a high chance of breaking your system are the 10.5.2 update and the AirPort update.
