I am going to take your advice I want to learn about Mac this is my first Mac Os! I will wait to do the update.. What reason would I want to do the update what upgrades come with the update?? is it even worth updating???

Great to hear that you were able to get this to work, however if you dont mind would you post what you did what ktext you used etc that way we can document it and if someone else comes with the same setup as you they can get started as well. Just a thought

I used iaktos S3 s2 torrent and burn it to a dvd at a low speed and I installed it I had to pick very specific options for the drivers and hard ware to get it working properly I also had to delete many kext files in the terminal to not get a black screen will turning it on!

 

But please why would i want to install updates?? please let me know

 

Hery is a screen shot of my Dell Inspiron E1505

hello

 

only thing u gonna have with update to 10.6.8 is app store.. but u can lost all the system with update...

 

when u go to another version.. all system kext are replaced by new ones.. if u delete ... they back...

 

good hack
