First off, thanks to everyone for all their hard work. There is no way I could even come as far as I have without standing on the shoulders of all the postings I have found.

Well - the title about says it all. I have managed to get my little machine running MAC OS. Now I would like to upgrade to 10.6.2. I have downloaded the combo patch and netka's new sleepenabler, so I want to follow the directions (I'm using prasys's guide: http://prasys.co.cc/2009/11/tutorial-upgrading-to-osx-10-6-2/comment-page-1/ )

My problem is that when I boot my current 10.6.1 install, I can't find /Extra/Extensions

At first I thought maybe I didn't do a Guid partition like I thought, but Disk Utitlities says it is. I only have one HDD. I have tried doing a cd /Volumes/OSx86/Extra/Extensions from the terminal, but that says No such file or Directory.

?? What am I doing wrong?

Hardware used:
GA-G31M-ES2L Rev 2
E3200 Core 2 Duo Celeron
Sparkle 9500GT 512M
Encore ENGLA-1320 NIC
SYBA USB Sound
SATA 320G Disk EIDE DVD

Pulling out my hair - I know it is something stupid.

Thanks

try using spotlight (top right of screen magnifying glass icon) to look for a kext you have in there, fakesmc or sleepenabler?

Ok Sweaty, No.
On your desktop click Your drive(the one your booting from)
Then Look around for the Extra folder.
then click Extensions inside of it.
There you go!

But if you dont have E/E, then you havent installed Chameleon.

Report back if and when you find it!
