MrsColumbo Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 First of all Hi @ all at this cool forum. I'm posting this because I didn't find anything by using Search, so please stay with me here Here's my Spex. ASUS P5B, Core2Duo 6870 3GHz, 2 GB Ram, 8800GTS. Disk0 is Vista, Disk1 Leopard. i installed Leopard by using a guide on Gulli Board (osx86 10.5 Leopard flat image) Everything worked fine out of the box, as far as I can see. Beautiful. About this Mac shows: System: Mac OS X 10.5 (9A581); Kernel: Darwin 9.0.0 After farting around a bit I decided to go and try the software update (I know, should have searched the forums first, but I didn't and still don't know which Image (iAtkos etc.) I got here). After rebooting it didn't boot up, just rebooting BEFORE the splash screen (so I couldn't get info in verbose mode about what was happening). I set it up again (took me mere 20 Minutes) but now I'm stuck here. I'd like to move to 10.5.2. Any hints, guys? will this (http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=88266) work? TIA, MrsCOlumbo Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/88266-unsolved-upgrade-kernel-to-92/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
waring192 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 im in the same boat as you. Image instal went fine (had to use the toh_kernel though). Did the upgrade and didnt boot, replaced the kernel to the toh_kernal again and it worked but only up to 1.5.1?!

afiser Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 yea, i had to end up using the kalyway 10.5.2 update pkg and the kalyway kernel updater...the netkas guide just would not work for me no matter what kexts i replaced.

MrsColumbo Posted February 18, 2008 Author Share Posted February 18, 2008 Update worked. It just hung after finishing installation -> shut down the update program, restarted -> wallah, 10.5.2. Now I'd like to update the kernel to 9.2., just for the {censored} of it. Do I need to?

waring192 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 i didnt need to, im using the toh kernel and all is fine, do you have to copy the kexts from the kalyway download?

MrsColumbo Posted February 18, 2008 Author Share Posted February 18, 2008 Sry, dunno what you mean - you mean, if I DID copy some kexts? Well, I didn't, just "paved" it over. Didn't even repair pemissions. But, alas, Time Machine doesn't start (Error -43). So the update f***** it up somehow. I'll dig into this. I tried to do the kernel update (kalyway 9.2. kernels; NOT the vanilla one), after rebooting I end up with kernel panic :/ Will try again in different order -> maybe that's not for me Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/88266-unsolved-upgrade-kernel-to-92/#findComment-630648 Share on other sites More sharing options...
waring192 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 I tried paving them over and ended up not booting (unmatching somthing) boots now fine and everything works but i have to boot in -V or it wont boot. Any ideas why? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/88266-unsolved-upgrade-kernel-to-92/#findComment-630787 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsColumbo Posted February 18, 2008 Author Share Posted February 18, 2008 sry man, i'm absolutely new to this ( i guess i got lucky cause i got just the right hardware here. maybe you gotta repair permissions after update and before rebooting ..

MrsColumbo Posted February 18, 2008 Author Share Posted February 18, 2008 just use the disk utility (finder->programs->utilities->disk utility). on the left plane click on the drive you installed leo on, in the main pane click "repair permissions". this seems to reset r/w-persmissions to certain system files. dunno what it does in detail but sure as hell doesn't hurt Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/88266-unsolved-upgrade-kernel-to-92/#findComment-631092 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatNeh Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Just to add my 2 cents, I upgraded to the 9.2 kernel found on IRC, and it worked fine except I lost sleep capabilities (machine turned off but when trying to turn back on, it went into an infinite ON/OFF loop).
