This is simply a question to satisfy my curious mind on the difference between the two and possible advantages and disadvantages both has on a machine.
Also, I'm using MBR partition. I know PC_EFI v8 cannot be installed on MBR, yet I read on another forum that it now can.

How to update from 10.5.2 to 10.5.5
I also loaded Zepy's 10.5.2 and the bootloader working fine in SATA drive.
How did you update 10.5.2 to 10.5.5? I tried using ASU while extracting the monitor showed reboot and nothing worked. I reinstalled 10.5.2 again.
Any help in updating to 10.5.5
