Updating Your Hack via Apple's 10.5.5 Update

[themaniac84]

Has anybody tried to update their Hack to 10.5.5 via the below mentioned method? If so how did it go?

1) Open Terminal

sudo -s

*type password*

while sleep 1;
do rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext; done

2) Open 10.5.5 Update Installer

3) Run update BUT DO NOT RESTART

4) Go back to your terminal and press Control C to end the script

5) In terminal type:

nano /System/InstallAtStartup/scripts/1

Replace the line Dont Steal Mac OS X.kext with dsmos.kext

6) Restart and boot with -v

7) it will start loading and then you will get the message MACH_REBOOT, there you can hard reboot your computer. When you reach the darwin boot screen again, boot with -v again just for safe measure and it will boot fine.

Also could some help me understand the how to steps. I would like to update my Hack to 10.5.5. I can not update via the iATKOS v4i DVD that I have burned 5 times.

Thanks

themaniac84,

I've managed to update my Kalyway installation all from 10.5.2 to 10.5.5 using the following method:

(1) Installed Kaylway 10.5.2 with Vanilla Kernel
(2) Installed Kalyway 10.5.3. Combo Update with Vanilla Kernel
(3) Updated to 10.5.4 with Vanilla Kernel via the Apple Website
Apple Update 10.5.4
(3 a) Download the update
(3 b) run the update
(3 c) restart when requested
(3 d) update -v
(3 e) reboot again
(4) Updated to 10.5.5 with Vanilla Kernal via the Apple Website
Apple Update 10.5.5
(4 a) Download the update
(4 b) Open Terminal
(4 c) sudo -s
(4 d) while sleep 1; do rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext; done
(4 d) run the update
(4 e) when request to restart DON'T, kill the terminal command (CTRL+C) first
(4 f) restart as requested
(4 g) update -v
(4 h) reboot again

Only one issue that I have come across is my Audio (Realtek ALC888), I can get 5.1 sound but its not very good clicks and apears to "sleep" (but livable!)

So, from the above, you can see I've always used the Vanilla Kernel, I think this is the easiest to update, but not everyone can use the Vanilla Kernel
