I've been trying to get iLife 09 and iWork 09 installed, but since they both require 10.5.6 I've had to resort to trying to install iPC 10.5.6 on my system.

 

My system is rock solid stable using 10.5.4 iDeneb v1

 

I can get 10.5.6 installed using iPC 10.5.6 final but then when I try to mount a .dmg file, I get a kernel panic. Anyone else run into this problem before? More importantly how do you fix it?

So it seems I have the same problem, though I installed Seatbelt.kext 10.5.5 at first install..

Did you find a solution to your problem?

 

Edit: Apparently you can´t install the seatbelt kext trough the first install.

So, while in osx I put my ipc dvd in, started the install, and in customize uncheck all but the seatbelt.kext. Install.

This solved my problem super :) got the tip from another post on the forum. Link here.

 

Edit 2: For some reason this kernel panic does continue to appear after all.

 

Success! all I did was follow this tip form this thread. :)

 

If you have rolled back to the old seatbelt.kext or completely removed it and are still getting kernel panics specifically when opening disk images then try removing you extensions cache. Open Terminal and run:

sudo rm -R /System/Library/Extensions.mkext

then reboot with -v -f

 

Kexts (Drivers) are stored in the /System/Library/Extensions folder. OSX builds a cache of these files called Extensions.mkext. When making modifications to the extensions folder you want to remove this cache to force OSX to rebuild it. Booting with -f also forces OSX to pull kexts from the extensions folder and not the cache file

 

You may also want to make sure permissions are set correctly. Open Terminal and type:

sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions && chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions

diskutil repairpermissions /

 

The second line repairs permissions to the entire drive. The reason for the first line is that if there are any non Apple kexts that OSX doesnt recognize, it will not know the proper permissions to set.
