genin Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Hi, how can I use my 10.5.1 retail DVD to install Leo? I will follow this tutorial (http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=75863) to install Leo and this (http://forum.osx86scene.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2008) tutorial to patch the DVD.

Dense Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 You'll need an updated OSInstall.mpkg. However the rest of the script should still work (in theory).

csn_pilot Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 You do not need a new OSInstall.mpkg, to my knowledge. I bought a 10.5.1 retail DVD recently, and out of curiosity, tried using the BrazilMac 9a581 patch. Here's what I did: I used an Uphuck 10.4.9 installation for the patching. I unzipped the patch files to my Desktop and edited the patch as needed (user name, apdir, dmg). I opened a terminal shell and typed sudo -s and my password, to log in as root. I then opened the patch file in terminal, and it proceeded to patch my leopard 10.5.1 dvd image. One problem I ran into: For some odd reason, the patcher would not mount the leopard.iso.cdr from the patch's first step, as Mac OS X Installation DVD. Instead, it mounted as Install. As a result, when the patch tried to rename Mac OS X Installation DVD to OSx86DVD, it of course did not work and every step afterwards failed (Directory not found: /Volumes/OSx86DVD). To get around this, I simply changed a line in the patch.sh file to rename /Volumes/Install to OSx86DVD. This fixed all of my problems right away. The only other error occured at the very last step, updating the prebindings. I thought that this would make the patch fail, but it did not. I burnt the resulting 4 gb dvd image and booted from it. After 10-15 minutes, it had fully booted and I then installed Leopard. After, of course the first reboot failed, and I then applied the post patch from my Uphuck 10.4.9 tiger partition. After it patched, I rebooted into Leopard, and was treated to the usual "flying through space" welcome video. Leopard works like a charm now, and About this Mac says Mac OS X 10.5.1. Right now, I am trying to install pc_efi. We'll see how that goes. Hope this solves anyone's problems.
