N0Lif3 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 my specs: Kalyway Mac OS X 10.5.2 Leopard (Used the Kalyway 10.5.1 install disc, then the 10.5.2comboupdate) Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L 2Ghz Pentium E2180 dual-core (overclocked to 2.4Ghz!) EVGA Geforce 7300GT 2GB (2x 1GB) DDR2 800Mhz 250GB SATA HDD Here is my situation : Will these updates hurt me? I'm only really concerned about the "Leopard Graphics Update." Should I just do it or will it mess up my hackintosh? EDIT: Nevermind, I went for it and absolutely nothing bad happened!

KWKSLVR Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 What about the regular MAC updates? I'm tempted to try it and see what happens. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/92023-will-these-updates-hurt-me/#findComment-656830 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuusharo Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I think only a few people have had problems with the Graphics update. Otherwise, I've yet to have a problem with any Non-OS updates related to iLife, iWork, Pro Kit, etc. KWKSLVR, *never* install Mac OS updates directly from software update. Even though we have EFI emulation, the updates themselves have checks within them that can tell if your system is a real mac or a hack, and will do things to break your OS installation. 10.5.2 is a prime example. If you want to be completely safe, never update anything. But I don't think you have much to worry about individual app updates. Its only the OS updates you need to be concerned about. Check back here whenever one comes up and see other people's experiences with it. You may need a modified version of the update, or run a few terminal commands to be able to work around the checks and keep your system up and running.
