Accord -- you have to do that every time on reboot though, correct? My fix is permanent :)

 

Ok, I really need to stop checking this, I'm running 8.4.1 and waiting for the release of the JaS 10.4.8 SSE2 Intel + Kernel DVD (today sometime, right?) just to get up to new kernel... so I can't contribute here really while being on topic.

 

Sorry again.

1) backup kernel and kexts

2) install 10.4.9 combo update

3) do not RESTART, replace kernel and kext back.

4) update permissions and prebindings

5) restart and enjoy

 

Pardon my ignorance, but what is the point in updating if we have to revert kernel and drivers to the old ones? Well, about kernel, I know that semthex' is better than apple's :dance_24:

 

But shouldnt we have a look at the drivers and kexts? Maybe they are better in 4.9...

Read the whole topic. /me sighs

 

Only 4 old kexts and 1 old framework in my install.

i dont get why do u have to backup loginwindow.app....hum with maxxuss 10.4.4 we had to backup applesmbios, system.kext ipfirewall.kext and kernel.fk

what if we try only that? i bet this can work with the latest loginwindow.

Ok,

 

haven't noticed any issues yet except mounting samba shares.

It won't let me mount it with finder, mounting it manualy doesn't work eather. :)

I get this error: mount_smbfs: session setup phase failed: syserr = Broken Pipe

 

Well, atleast my own "pipe" isn't broken. :)

 

 

Update: Fixed it! I was able to mount the smb shares from my linuxbox, but not with my hackintosh from a hackintosh (both 10.4.9).

Replaced the smbd binary with the one from 10.4.7/8 to /usr/sbin/

That's it.

just install 10.4.9 combo update (8P2111).

I install update, replace kernel back to 8.8.1, replace some kexts ( IOIATAFamily, AppleSMBIOS).

System booted, but have problems, undefined symbols in BSDKernel.kext and ATIRadeon9700.kext. I replace them with same from 10.4.8.

System works, qe/ci/qe2d works.

BUT, i can't mount dmg image, i don't know what's kext is bad ( problem exactly in some kext, because i try 10.4.8 with kexts from 10.4.9, and wasn't able to mount dmg)

So i back 10.4.8 kexts, update ATIRadeon9700 bundles and pluging to 10.4.9 version.

System work now fine, qe/ci/qe2d supported.

 

So instruction is

1) backup kernel and kexts

2) install 10.4.9 combo update

3) do not RESTART, replace kernel and kext back.

4) update permissions and prebindings

5) restart and enjoy

 

If you cannot mount a disk image. There are some private frameworks that control this. The three private frameworks that are involved are:

DiskImages.framework

DiskManagement.framework

MediaKit.framework

 

From what I have found, these three private frameworks work together as a team.

Nvm, fixed. I had to edit /etc/rc, and it works like a charm. (I've replaced System.kext right after the update, so that wasn't the culprit.) However, I'm also having a non-critical DiskArb error, but it still boots, regardless of the error. Also, I have a 775Dual-VSTA. I used AppleVIAATA.kext and AppleHDA.kext from 10.4.8 (patched to work with this mobo, although AppleHDA.kext still doesn't work). Could sb make a 10.4.9 version of these kexts? Thanks!

eGWan , easy way to solve dmg problem is add this lines to /etc/rc

 

/usr/bin/sudo /sbin/kextunload -c com.apple.AppleDiskImageController

/usr/bin/sudo /sbin/kextload -b com.apple.AppleDiskImageController

 

Could someone please explain how to put these lines in the /etc/rc file? Thank you.
