Ipc 10.5.6 to 10.5.7

First, what is the difference between the 10.5.7 update and the 10.5.7 Combo update?

Has anyone done the update yet and has it worked?

Any issues

Successfully updated to 10.5.7 on IPC.

Used part of netkas instructions and did not have to textedit any files.

Just did the while command and ran update. 2 boots and done.

I have been running an iPC OSx86 PPF3 build in 10.5.6. Updated to 10.5.7 yesterday by Software Update. The update process resulted in 2 reboots.

System reports as Mac, System Version as 10.5.7, Kernel Version as Darwin 9.7.0

As far as I can tell everything works as it did before the update, except it did not sleep or shutdown/reboot and it reports the incorrect memory.

I notice that shutdown/reboot woks if I disable USB Legacy in the BIOS.

Thanks for the great build.

Didn't need to replace system.kext. Is there something special about iPC that makes it easy to update?

I managed to update to 10.5.7 on my quad core amd by installing the update, then installing the voodoo kernel before restarting.Had to install video drivers again to get back my quartz extreme on my 8660gts.But apart from that all is good.

I find it very interesting that some folks have had to re-install some kexts, have the Extra folder, etc., whereas for my install I did not have to do anything.

Is it just luck of the 'hardware' draw?

I forgot to download the delta and just updated via Software Update. The only problem I had was a minor graphics glitch on reboot. Reinstalled NVDarwin and everything works fine.
