Hi,

 

since yesterday I am lucky to say, that Leopard is running again on my PC. But now it is the snow one :)

About a year ago, I had Leopard 10.5.8 on this system.

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At first, my system:

- Gigabyte EP35C-DS3R with AALC889a Audio

- Intel Quad 2,66 GHz

- 2x2 Gb Corsair Dominator (800 MHz)

- Sapphire ATI 4870, 512MB

- Original 2,5" HDD from my MacBook (which now has a SSD). BUT, in SL it is shown as extern Device...(don't know why).

 

- Sound works (comes out of the black instead of green, but works)

- LAN don't work. Would be nice, but atm i don't need it

- 4870 works

- WLAN isn't workin (DLink DWL-G122 C2), at 10.5.8 it worked well, but under SL... (Update... It works)

- Searching for good WLAN an BT-Adapter

 

Booting:

- Chameleon RC4 on USB-Stick

- netkas EFI Boot 10.5

- Custom and own created DSDT.aml (created under Ubuntu-Live)

- A few kexts.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Because the WLAN-Stick does not work. i've downloaded the 10.6.2 Update directly from apple.

 

I can run it. But when I have to choose the target Volume, there are only 2 devices. My USB-Stick (Chameleon) and the HDD (2,5", 160Gb, Hitachi, 1 Partition, GUID, Extended (Journaled)). But both of them have a yellow exclamation mark (!) on it.

Do I klick on my SL-Device, there is a note which says that the Mac OS X Update could not be installed on this Device. The Volume does not have the prerequisites for the Update.

 

It's in german...: "Mac OS X Update kann auf diesem Laufwerk nicht installiert werden. Dieses Volume erfüllt nicht die Voraussetzungen für dieses Update."

 

Does anyone know the problem?

There are two types of Updates: Updates and ComboUpdates. Combo can take you from version 10.6 to 10.6.2 (or whatever), skipping and intermediate version. Update NEEDs to go one version at a time. So if you really have a Update for 10.6.2 and your System is 10.6 IT WILL NOT DO IT. So, get Update 10.6.1 and run it and the Update10.6.2 or get the ComboUpdate 10.6.2.

 

 

Good luck.
