Mac OS X 10.5.5 Kalyway COMBO UPDATE

[zeamp]

I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 and myself, and others with similar models have reported kernel panics when going from 10.5.4 Kalyway to 10.5.5 via Software Update. There are a few tips and tricks, some success and some failures, but what is the clear cut method? I'd like any of you Kalyway users to post your success and how you did it on getting 10.5.5 to run without erroring, panicing, or beachball syndrome.

 

Thanks in advance -- POST SCREENSHOTS OF SUCCESS/FAILURE!

Dell Vostro 1510 with Kalyway 10.5.2 here...

 

it worth trying to update to 10.5.5 ?

and if yes, how? =p

[jimmydigital00]

Same Here.

Was on 10.5.4 tried the software update and CRASH!!!

 

Now I am back on 10.5.4 and waiting for good solution.

I successfully went from 10.5.3 to 10.5.4 to 10.5.5 incrementally using these files:

 

http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1054update.html

http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1055update.html

 

I did NOT use the 10.5.5 ComboUpdate from Apple.

 

The kernel is 9.5. I started with Kalyway 10.5.1 and then did the 10.5.2/.3 Kalyway updates.

 

As far as I can tell, everything still works.

Up and running, however battery meter refuses to display and sound is failing.

updated from kalyway 10.5.3 to 10.5.5 with sleepscript etc. now i wont get to the desktop. it stucks at the grey apple screen. the loading-circle stops and the only thing i can do is to shutdown

 

in safe-mode it works, but then my internal keyboard and the touchpad doesnt work

 

i plugged an external mouse and keyboard and repaired permission etc. but no success still stucking at the grey apple screen.

On P5W DH mobo.

I started with Kalyway 10.5.1 vanilla kernel + EFI v8

Updated to 10.5.2, 10.5.3, 10.5.4 using netkas method (combo update + background script in terminal)

 

I did the same thing with 10.5.5, but can't boot anymore (It seems it starts to boot, I hear the HD 2-3 seconds, then spinning wheel and finally HDs are turned off).

Guess what ? I had to format my time machine HD this week end so I lose everything

 

Boot with -v shows error message about JMicron

I've tried rd=disk2s1, tried -s then fsck -fy

 

A solution to make me boot again would be VERY appreciated

Hi,

 

I'm right here: Kalyway 10.5.3 with 9.2 sleep-kernel. Updated from 10.5.2 to 10.5.3 with the Kalyway combo-updater - I had to install the kernel after updating.

 

Have you done some post installations after updating to 10.5.4, like reinstalling kernel or so?

[lbaz]

I have an Asus P5W DH that was running kalyway 10.5.4. Downloaded the delta update 10.5.5 with the link provided in this post by mrmick and applied it with the netkas background script in terminal method. The only thing was no sound........erased the kexts for sound and reinstalled with ALC882 AppleHDA v0.4b.mpkg and everything is working perfect with Vanilla kernel. Jmicron is disabled in BIOS.

 

I think its the way to go at least for this MB.

 

Thanks all for the info in this thread it was very helpfull.

just 1 question did you use the netkas method of installing????? Or did you do you just install it?

[Colonel]

This thread title is pretty misleading.. I thought this had something to do with a Kalyway 10.5.5 combo update package... you got my hopes up for a second there...

[tessa17]

update tried update again and it installed but lost video card support and when i try to reinstall kext i loose all abiltiy to see my screen it is just black. Does anyone have any ideas on why????

[Panarchy]

I will try the combo update later, with my ASUS P5K-E Motherboard.

 

But before I do, has anyone tried it with the same motherboard as me?

[zeamp]

For anyone thinking "Hey! There's no Kalyway Combo Update here. What gives?"

 

I successfully upgraded from 10.5.4 Kalyway to 10.5.5. You can find more information on my tutorial.

 

Runs great! Check my signature for specs.

Use the Delta update link provided by mrmick and netkas method. Do not use software or combo update.

[smcpipint]

Upgraded using the Netkas method and the 10.5.5 delta upgrade, NOT the combi. No problems on an Asus Maximus Formula (X38/ICH9/JMicron), other than having to reinstall Taruga to get sound back. I did not use the combi as previous combi upgrades have trashed the AHCI kexts; the delta upgrade did not.

[Coloro]

Origin: Kalyway 10.5.2 -> Kalyway Combo Update 10.5.3 (vanilla kernel) -> Software Update's 10.5.4 update.

 

Downloaded delta (not combo) 10.5.5 update.

Started Netkas method on terminal (to recursively delete AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement file).

Started update.

Before completing, alarm! My screen turns grey and a message tells me to power off my PC or hard reboot it.

Power on again, and my system gets blocked after a few lines of code on screen: power off again .

One more power-on, and my PC suddenly autoreboots after a few lines of code on screen.

Starts booting... grey Apple's screen... blue screen... my system is up and running!

Now 'about this Mac' says my version is 10.5.5, and all (sound, graphics...) works as ever.

I don't know what happened, I am even not sure if my system is really running 10.5.5, but I'm happy .

Did you come from 10.5.4 or from 10.5.3? If you installed from 10.5.4, did you update to 10.5.4 in the same way you describe above?

 

Also can you get the Vanilla kernel to work with your X38 MF because I can't get past 10.5.3 on my system?

 

How do you get the PC to boot with say a Vanilla kernel 9.4.0 or 9.5.0?

[ Mysticus C*]

You guys can also (alternatively) try my BIKE TOWN FILES and TUTORIAL to update anything to 10.5.5 in three stages but at one go...

 

a-) install preparation patch (no restart)

b-) install official update (no terminal fingering needed but no restart yet)

c-) post update patch (custom settings to bring back various files so that no need to worry about more fingering) (restart after this )

 

Here is my topic

I came from 10.5.4. And yes, its a vanilla kernel. The process I followed to get to 10.5.4 is here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...mp;#entry881737.

[ganzhimself]

The first attempt took a dump all over itself after just trying to do it through software update... Well, I reinstalled, and restored from my Time Machine Backup... Tried again, this time using the Combo Update (10.5.2 -> 10.5.5)... I thought the install was messed up, because it never seemed to boot, so I redid the install again. I happened to bump my usb mouse and this time it came back, but no onboard mouse and keyboard... So, I have no idea. Flushed the install again and I'm back at 10.5.2 awaiting some guidance. Probably going to at least upgrade to the Kalyway 10.5.3 combo update, maybe 10.5.4 if I can find it... Ugh. Oh well, it's not like this doesn't work the way it is for now, and I'm sick of reinstalling. If anyone has any advice, that would be awesome.

[MacNutty]

Lost QE support, tried all ways, no success.

Thanks.

 

I can get to 10.5.3 via Kaly's combo update but I still can't use Vanilla Kernel or update past 10.5.3. I've gone nuts searching this forum for methods on getting a Vanilla Kernel to work..... there must be still something I'm missing.....

 

Oh well I'll try one more time with the netkas method then I'll wait for Kaly to do a 10.5.5 update

 

Just a quick question.... Are my update problems caused because I've used the Kaly 10.5.2 DVD for the initial install with sleepkernel 9.2.0 (this is the only kernel that works for me atm)?

Possible - I've never used anything other than the vanilla kernel.........
