cpujoe Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Taken from the link above.. 1. First, download the update directly from Apple’s website. You can grab 10.5.5 at http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/appl...1055update.html 2. Before you run the downloaded file, open up Terminal and type “sudo su -” without the quotes. Enter your user password and then type “while sleep 1 ; do rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext ; done” without the quotes. 3. Keep this window open while you run the downloaded update and install it 4. Before you reboot, exit the Terminal script by holding down Ctrl and pressing X (Ctrl + X). Close Terminal and hit the button on the Update to reboot your computer. 5 Done I haven't tested it..Please post your results if you try it..

Sosai X Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 The above steps worked just fine on my Acer Extenza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpujoe Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 I just tried it and it worked fine.. I have an ASUS P5B. NOTE: It did restart twice. Before it loaded the UI, it restarted and then started normally. If this happens to you, do not panic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orteginho Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Does it work from iatkos v2 10.5.2 because iatkos v4 didn't work for me. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zakfontaine Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 This method didn't work with my Acer Aspire One. I've tried it 3 times with the given script and I get kernel panic about 1/3 of the way through. I'm using ToH 9.2 kernel. I think that is the problem. I can't run vanilla on it.

I'm gonna guess that this method wont work on anything but Vanilla right? So...i should not attempt an update w/ Speedstep? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamt Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I did this method oh my dimension 9100 and it didn't go well. upon rebooting it would start to load leopard and reboot. bummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elcomgeek Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Yes here is the english version of how to update 10.5.4 to 10.5.5 any distro only for Intel user's Check this link. http://insanelymac.blogspot.com/2008/09/ho...-for-osx86.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geiman Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I updated using this method on a toshiba p105-s6064 with the speed step kernel installed, and it did not work the first time for some reason, but after a reinstall it worked the second time around. Since I had to reinstall, I then decided I might as well go for the vanilla/EFI, which worked even more perfectly. So to answer your question, yes, this worked with both speedstep kernel, and vanilla install on iATKOS4i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abrls Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 According 3rr0rists, DO NOT use combo update, use delta update 10.5.4 to 10.5.5 only. I think that's why so many people with iATKos v4i screwed up! Anyone with iATKos v4i successfully update to 10.5.5 with combo update? Please share your method!

3rr0rists Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 yeah, you right abrls. do not update with 10.5.5 combo, its will broke your systems. use 10.5.5 delta only. i try many times with combo update and nothing successed. english version can found here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iPhilippe Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I failed to upgrade my acer aspire one to 10.5.5 too. my kernel is iatkos v.4 and download the update but not combo. followed the script, done the upgrade and closed terminal window. after reboot, it just reboots itself during the booting process. It is too quick to see the booting message to know the last step it goes. Is anyone lucky enough to upgrade his acer one successfully? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lithium06 Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 combo update worked for me. on iatkos v4i. had to do the 'while sleep 1 rm -rf blah' and also b4 a reboot change in: /System/InstallAtStartup/scripts/1 Replace the line Dont Steal Mac OS X.kext with dsmos.kext Restart and boot with -v, it'll do another reboot, then you'll be in. i think the combo does that InstallAtStartup scripts and delta doesnt?

qmac Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Am really stuck !! I too have a Toshiba p105 but no luck have tried this a half dozen times following the instructions Each time I try to upgrade from iatkos 10.5.4 to 10.5.5, I get to the point that I am asked to restart the computer, but my touchpad and keyboard are now frozen and there is no way to enter the terminal window i have left open. I wanted to have access to Windows, so I installed my XP SP3 Media Edition first, then partitioned my hard drive to create a Mac partition, then installed iatkos 10.5.4 without any options ticked. When I tried some options like kernel 9.2, it wouldn't boot at all. On my system MUST use the enable Usb keyboard legacy in BIOS or the touchpad won't work What does "vanilla" mean with respect these installations & upgrades? Does it mean without any options? Does this only work on a hard drive without any Windows already installed? Any suggestions appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
