Just got my OSx86 in good working order -- running Kalyway 10.5.1. I have not run any software updates ... not clear on what if anything is "safe" to run with this distro.

 

Any advice on updating the following?

 

- Pro Apps, including ProKit update 4.5

- iLife/Work apps

- iTunes/Front Row

- QT Player

 

I'm guessing most if not all are safe ...

Anything that includes a kernel update is generally not safe to install. 10.5.x updates as well as a certain time machine update include these updates.

 

That being said, those updates should all be safe, though it is always good to have a system backup, or at least a backup of your extensions folder.
