Updated/installed using pacifist, rebooted, and was presented with my lovely desktop, along with QE/CI, and the whole nine yards.

 

For anyone else wanting 10.5.7, definitely use pacifist, and do not replace/overwrite your graphics/sound/network drivers.

 

 

Files you should also not install:

 

AppleHDA.kext (if you use modified hda audio drivers)

AppleHPET.kext

AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext

AppleSMBIOS.kext

AppleTyMCEDriver.kext

Seatbelt.kext

System.kext

mach_kernel

mach_kernel.ctfsys

Time Machine running?

 

Yep, Time Machine works great.

 

Awesome you got it to work i have an amd phenom 9550 i also updated to 10.5.7 i'm having issues i cant not boot into mac at all no verbose mode or anything it just goes to black screen and stops and when going to normal boot up it stops at grey apple screen. any tips?

 

Hmm, that's strange. How did you go about updating?

i had to re format the drive and re install osx. although i was able to back up my files on another hacintosh :D

Hmm I'm running 10.5.7 on AMD now too it was work to get it running though. I started out using Zyphyroth 10.5.2 rev2 a few months ago and that was running very smoothly for my setup. I updated slowly to each update using the AMD Patcher and i hit a snag at 10.5.6 it just wouldnt work so i had to revert to an old backup. Then I came across the iDeneb 10.5.7 combo update and use that.

 

My machine wouldnt boot up it would hang midway through started up then i managed to default to VESA video and safe mode and I applied EFI Strings for my Video card. The system still wouldnt boot without safe mode. I defaulted to AnV kernel and messed with different drivers and i got my system up and running.

 

Its running very smoothly right now. My system profiler says I'm running ddr2 ram even though I'm not it also says I am using a MacBookPro lol. I will update my sig to show my system specs in a bit. :(

Hi,

 

Any chance of a quick/rough guide to doing the upgrade with Pacifist? I'm new to the hackintosh world, so could use a few pointers!

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Mark.

Here's how I updated (it may not work for you and you must be using Voodoo 9.5/AnV 1.4)

 

1) rename your kernel to a different name. Open Terminal

sudo -s
cp -R /mach_kernel /mach_kernel.voodoo

 

2) Change your com.apple.boot.plist

This is either located in /Extra/ (if you have chameleon 2) or /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/

 

Change it from

<key>Kernel</key>
<string>mach_kernel</string>

to...

<key>Kernel</key>
<string>mach_kernel.voodoo</string>

 

Reboot

 

3) ONLY FOR NFORCE MOBO'S

 

Open up terminal and type in

sudo -s
while sleep 1; do rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/GeForce.kext; done

Leave that open, open another terminal window and type in

sudo -s
while sleep 1; do rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/NVDAResman.kext; done

Leave this open too

 

4) ONLY FOR MacPro's

Open up a terminal windows and type in

sudo -s
while sleep 1; do rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleTyMCEDriver.kext; done

Leave that open

 

5) Install the 10.5.7 update

 

Reboot and enjoy

Thanks cicyoass. Worked like a charm!

 

Just one thing though: If you're using a laptop (like me) you'll also need to watch out - the PS2 kexts get messed up by the update so make a backup of

 

AppleACPIPS2Nub.kext

ApplePS2Controller.kext

 

or whatever you use to get your PS2 trackpad and keyboard working.

 

Cheers,

Potenuse
