Hi guys:

my issue is i have kaliway 10.5.1 DVD installer, so i want to update to 10.5.6 but i don't know how, someone in the forum (who help me a lot) told me that i have to installs this prerequisites:
1. voodoo kernel 9.5
2. AppleDecrypter kext
3. Disabler kext
4. AppleSMBIOSEFI kext
5. Chameleon bootloader.

so now i've done that. my question is how do i have to update?

i have an Asus motherboard, with 82845G/GZ intel chipset driver and 8139 ethernet card... now i have the GMA kext functioning.

this are my hardware specs

Graphics Card: Intel(R) 82945G Express Chipset Family (128 MB)
3D acelerator: Intel GMA 950
RAM: 1GB
Motherboard chipset:Intel Lakeport-G i945GC

i tried to update with 10.5.4 ComboUpd:

i run the installer until the restart button, then edited /System/InstallAtStartup/scripts and did the trick with dsmos kext and after restart i got freeze at boot, here are the screenshots

PS: i removed the AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement kext

There's nothing helpful, at least I don't think so, in those screenshots.

What boot options have you tried?

Have you tried booting with -v -f -F ?

Or into single user mode?

You could also try a different kernel just in case Voodoo doesn't like your cpu, though I'm pretty sure your chip should boot just fine with Voodoo.

well since you were booting with voodoo kernel fine before applying the update I am going to suggest booting with the boot flag "mach_kernel.voodoo -v -f" a few times as it will probably want to restart after running its scripts after initial boot.

EDIT: Those screenshots basically reflect a system that cannot load its chipset kext and is hanging... but then again, there are probably other things not right after the update such as permissions for some of the extensions... try booting with "-s" /sbin/mount -uw /
cd /System/Library/
chmod -R 755 Extensions/
chown -R 0:0 Extensions/
touch Extensions/
rm -Rf Extensions.*
reboot
see if that helps.

(oh, and also include the voodoo kernel in your boot flag if the com.apple.Boot.plist file doesn't specify it already)

already tried "-s" flag but it's just the same...
i will try to set the permissions right with the Terminal app from the kaliway DVD installer, so let's see

You need matching system.kext and kernel, it usually gives usb problems.

Use the voodoo installer and customize it to only install the system.kext
