10.5.1 without PC_EFI

[XanthraX]

- Downloaded the 10.5.1 update from apple (you can do it via Software Update, select it and from the file menu, chose "Download only");

- Backed up my kernel (made a folder in the system disk named "kernels")

- With Disk Order , set to view hidden files I copied mach_kernel into /kernels (you can do with terminal, or Pathfinder or Xfolders)

- Backed up AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext, just in case;

- Opened the 10.5.1 update package with Pacifist 2.5.1, selected all, except mach_kernel and installed;

- Chowned and chmoded all extensions, just in case;

- Rebooted and voila, I have 10.5.1.

This also worked for me as well. I had to readd my ATi X1600 info and reuse my 10.5.0 System.kext since I didn't update my kernel or otherwise I wouldn't have been able to mount any external disks. Sweet.

[alexander k.]

same for me.

 

ToH RC2

Used nvinject and AzaliaAudio

 

on Asrock 775-DUAL VSTA, Realtek 8169S NIC, Pentium D 805, Geforce 6600, ATA

 

1.) Backup my kernel and the System/Lib/Extensions folder

2.) Installed via Pacifist

3.) Copied back: kernel, AppleIntelIntegratedFrame...kext, NVDAN40Hal.kext, IOHDIX...kext

 

Rebooted.

Resulted in kernel panic.

 

Rebooted again: -v -f -legacy

 

All is working now.

I also confirm success using this method, the easiest method found on this forum, in my opinion.

 

Anyone knows how/if we can get an updated kernel?

Another success - I hosed EFI installs several times with ToH, BrazilMac, and the flat image, then before I tried again I saw this thread and said "{censored} it!" This worked very well. I'd like to get a new kernel, too, but it doesn't seem to matter...

 

By the way, I just downloaded, installed everything with Pacifist (leaving out the kernel) and rebooted...none of the other steps listed above.

[Kevin Email]

on the Netkas.freeflux.net they have information about the new kernel. I just installed 9.1 (Sleep version) with a new AppleSMBios.kext and works a treat after the 10.5.1 update

[SleeplessMedia]

I cant seem to get Pacifist to open the update download, and "Show package contents dosent work on it either.... any thoughts on why and how to get around it?Nevermind... got it to open.This method was too easy... complete success. I also didnt bother to Chown/Chmod... no problems. Thanks,

hi,

 

try replacing your graphics card kexts from backup. I copied all ATI kexts from backup (ATI*.*) - though probably not needed (I have ATI X1650 Pro, so it uses ATIRAdeonX1000.kext). Also, somebody on the forum mentioned replacing the AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext.

 

Will try this kernel, the 9B18 patched via this or this method gives me no sleep/shutdown issues.

Manage to get 10.5 working on my MSI 915P/G Neo2 with P4 3GHz, 2GB DDR2, Geforce 7300GT using ToH RC2 . Used also nvinject and AzaliaAudio. Linksys wireless USB network apdater V4 working.

 

I know nothing in using the Terminal command.

 

Download the 10.5.1 already. How to backup my kernel, AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext before opening the update package? How to set to view hidden files using the terminal?

 

What is the full command line for Chown and chmod.

method to backup appleintelintegratedframebuffer.kext

 

go to System/Library/Extensions

and search for appleintelintegratedframebuffer.kext

copy it and save it on a pen drive or anything else

in case you want to place it back u can use kext helper to install it.
