Juno360 Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Merry Christmas y'all! OK so I installed 10.4.6 JAS DVD then the 10.4.8 Jas update SSE3 options in both cases. Now when I try and update the kernel to semthex's new kernel, the computer hangs at the Grey apple logo screen. It shows a little no entry sign then hangs. When I tried booting up with "-v" option, it says several files are missing eg. com.apple.....etc Do I need to do more than just update the kernel file? Thanks in Advance!

eGWan Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 perhaps you are using jas 1048 update for 8.4.1 kernel There are many thread telling you how to upgrade to 1048, just check Rammjet's signature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juno360 Posted December 26, 2006 Author Share Posted December 26, 2006 Sorry, I'm not quite sure I understand So the Jas update was incorrect? BTW is it that I'm missing the kext(s) for the new kernel? Thats why the new kernel does not boot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammjet Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 The JaS Combo SSE3 update is for the old kernel. When you want to update to the new kernel, you still need some files from the Apple update. Follow the 10.4.8 link in my signature for ways to update to 10.4.8 with the new kernel.

Juno360 Posted December 26, 2006 Author Share Posted December 26, 2006 (edited) Just to be absolutely sure I know what I'm about to do is right: Following Paulicat's Method: Install 10.4.6 Install Apple 10.4.8 Combo update DO NOT REBOOT REPLACE specified files: AppleSMBIOS.kext, IOATAFamily.kext Install SEMTHEX kernel Repair permissions Reboot Edited December 26, 2006 by Juno360 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eGWan Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 actually you need some files to get a perfect one, you may follow the link in my signature to upgrade. the file contains 1048 common issue fixed and optional drivers just follow the instruction and you're done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
