rhalls Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 1) backup all to another disk 2) Try If you are on EFI, your chances are good for it to work well. But who knows?

mtotho Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 on my computer i have a quad boot.. XP/Vista/Leopard/Leopard Update tester. I have a perfect install with vanilla and everything and everytime there is a new update i test it on my junk 10gb instatll of leopard. If install is succesfull on that partition then i go onto my main install. I would recommend a similiar setup cause u can never be too sure.

mtotho Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 An semi-unrelated question, do you guys expect this new update to increase compatibilty with alot of new hardware, i assume it will cause its addressing all the new apple products of coming out.

fiuwe Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 @Smooth My machine run with Toh rc2 10.5.1 + vanilla kernel + efi emulator and it's able to upgrade system using Apple Upgrade. I think it depends by the efi emulator, In my opinion it allows the system to be recorgnized by Apple like a PPC and in that case it can be upgraded...

Lester56 Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 I made my Hack with OneTrack's method, vanilla kernel, to 10.5. Then I used Apple's Software Update to move to 10.5.1, and have used it every time since to update my Hack. I have no fear in using it with 10.5.2.

jlbrown23 Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 It is impossible to know - but either way it will be a good thing. If it works, then it works. If it doesn't work, then it is an excellent chance to see if Time Machine REALLY DOES WORK on a Hackintosh!(for me at least - it seems to me like Time Machine is more useful to Hackintosh owners than it is to Mac owners for just this reason! Too many times I tried to tweak something and wound up having to do a reinstall. Now I can just do a restore! Best part - the drive I am using for my TM backup used to be my Vista drive).
