HI dudes,

 

having installing kalyway 10.5.1 leopard version a few weeks ago, it all worked until I used the combo update from kalyway (10.5.2), the update went great but after rebooting for the first time, I only saw the grey apple for 10 minutes then my pc rebooted and the same grey apple without, this time ans HDD activity ... so I really think I'mstick now ... and no black screen even after 20 minutes ...

did I do something wrong ?

 

Thanks for replying )

After much finger crossing, I updated to 10.5.2 and Graphics update.

 

Now I have to install my new 500gb hard drive for additional storage, remove all the applications that no longer work (transferred my settings once I upgraded from an old powerbook 1.25ghz), and install the applications I bought and but didn't want to install on an old machine.

 

Loving my new build...

 

Thanks!

not working for me, a BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH welcomes me every time I boot my kalyway after update with exactly the instructed procedure.

 

Reinstalled kalyway and updated with Kalyway combo update & kalyway kernel update, and I'm set.

 

Thanks anyway ;)

Work. Boot up great, but no keyboard or trackpad working.

 

Tried to backup some 10.5.2 kernel extensions (AppleACPIPlatform, ApplePS2Controller, IOPCIFamilty), but nope too, changing this, make me boot without graphics and stuck at "Login Window Application Started", tried to replace the old GMA kexts, but nope. A lot of errors, no boot.

 

Anyone have solutions for this?

My graphics is still working fine with some minor mouse artifacts -esp with firefox- and I still have the same Suspend/Restart hangup issue I had with 10.5.1. if someone has a solution for this then Thanks in advance.

Installing Firefox3 Beta3 fixed my mouse artifacts in Firefox, and I haven't noticed them in the OS anymore either.

Has anyone determined the root cause of sleep no longer functioning w/ the 10.5.2 kalyway update? From reading online it sounds like AppleACPIPlatform.kext is definitely possibility. Can I just pull those kexts from my install DVD, drop them in extensions then repair permissions?

what u hv to do is to replace the AppleACPIPlatform.....with ur backup frm the old one.......but if u boot u will get kernel panic so u hv to add -f to ur kernel flags in ur com.apple.Boot.plist. and u should be fine.........

 

dont try to replace everything at the same time....try to go slow replace n trying one after the other.....

When you do a 10.5.2 combo update, does it install a vanilla kernel (i am guessing not)?

Even better yet, how do I check?

thanks

I downloaded the file you had listed. Can you elaborate on a few of the steps?

 

How do you back up the data? I know nothing about macs.

 

I put in the "while sleep" code and then ran the installer. The installer pronpts that I will need to restart after the update. At the end of the update the screen automitically gets slightly darker and a dark grey prompt box comes up that says I have to restart in a few different languages.(I did not hit anything, this prompt came up on its own) Neither the mouse nor the keyboard work. The prompt says that I have to pust the reset button or hold down the power button. I had no option so I powered down. The white background with the gray apple comes up and then the prompt comes up again about having to restart and the keyboard and mouse do not work. How do I not get this prompt the first time?

 

Concerning the replacement of "do not steal" with "dsmos" can you do a step by step including where to find the files and how to do the replacement?

I followed the instructions exactly. Now my computer just keeps rebooting itself as soon as the Darwin bootloader starts.

Make sure to read and understand the entire update post BEFORE you try to update.

 

"I put in the sleep code" Did you sudo -s first, then your password, make sure to push enter after the sleep code!

 

Did use the .dmg update or use software update?

 

When Devin says to "FIRST: backup /System/Library/Extensions/" You can just make a zip of the extensions folder. Then find out what kexts you need to replace:)

Good luck

I think that this needs to be stickied.

 

I started the software update, and thought, Hmm, I need to check Insanely Mac. I read this before my download was 85% complete, so I canceled it, and ran this, and it worked like a champ on all 3 of my Pac's. 2 have Core2 Quads, and one just has Core2duo. All run vanilla, and are running the graphics update. (2 of them have x1950's and one has x1900. Just used natit, and added dev ids to the ati kext)

at boot up I get:

 

b0 error

 

WTF did I do wrong? :(

 

for me this error usually goes away after updating the mbr or more specifically by reinstalling the efi (in my case v8).

 

i assume you use efi? if yes download the efi pack and follow the instructions on how to install it. you can find it on the forum.

iATKOSv1 with EFI_v8 GUID on GA-965P-DS3 & Q6600:Downloaded the combo updater. Ran with the instructions above to remove AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext and change the line for dsmos. No replacement of any kexts thereafter. Everything works smooth. The boot times were little long initially like a more than 1 min. So I removed and rebuild all the kextcaches using

sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions.mkext and .kextcache files

kextcache -e -z -a i386

kextcache -a i386 -z -k /System/Library/Extensions

And then I shut it off, pulled off power cord for a minute and removed all the peripherals, ethernet, etc excluding keyboard and mouse. The boot thereafter was 35 sec. Plugged back all the peripherals and rebooting gives me mostly 35-40 sec.Hope this info may help someone. I am not sure if all these steps were necessary but they did help to shorten the boot times.

 

I have a question though. Now that Nvidia 8 series graphics cards, esp 8600GT are supported, can we go ahead and delete NVinject? Actually I tried that and I could see now the resolution is native for the monitor (1680x1050) for the LCD monitor but qe/ci was not supported. So I re-installed NVinject back into extensions to get these things. Please let me know if I had to do something else that would natively support my XFX 256MB 8600GT with full res and qe/ci. Actually, that would cut down more boot time, not that I desperately need to cut it more but just that it would be nice.

 

Thanks devin for this thread and amazing instructions. My Hack Pro rocks. Xbench 151 (with Q6600, 2GB RAM)

I followed the steps and now it wont boot, it will just restart on its own.

 

I tried -s, -x, -v and still the same.. it doesnt stop and show me an error, it will just reboot and start it over again.

 

I do have a Pentium D.. NOT a Core 2 Duo, is this the problem?

I was going to make sure I edited the InstallAtStartup file but for some reason booting to terminal off the Leopard cd doesn't understand "sudo nano"

Is there anything I can do to go back or am I screwed?

download this kernel

http://rapidshare.com/files/93078936/mach_kernel.zip.html if you are using vanilla don't download this kernel. it won't work

and then copy it in a thumbdrive

now boot with the osx dvd and then do this

cd /rm -rf /Volumes/your hd name/mach_kernel
cp -R /Volumes/your thumb drive name/mach_kernel /Volumes/your hd name/mach_kernel
chmod -R 644 /Volumes/your hd name/mach_kernel
chown -R root:wheel /Volumes/your hd name/ mach_kernel
reboot

:):(:D

I did read the entire update and I throught I understood it. Concerning the backup I just copied the file and saved it to the desktop. I figured this would be good but I just wanted to check. Having never used a Mac before I did not know if Mac had a special backup that I should have been using.

 

I did put the full "sleep code" in and then had to verify password.

 

When you say .dmg vs software - I used the installer from the download, is that what you mean by .dmg? After my initial install I did get a prompt from Apple about needing a few updates which included 10.5.2 but I did not do any of those. Are those what you ment by software?

 

The main issue though is that the tutorial says not to reboot right after the install but I had no choice. I had to reinstall after the failed update becasue I was getting the prompt screen telling me I had to restart. I attempted the update again and the prompt came up again telling me I had to restart and locking out the keybaord and the mouse. Do you have any idea what I am doing wrong?
