normally you look at the kernel panix information , and it tells you what file got the panic . Then you google the file + 10.6.2... pretty easy stuff …

Field Note #2 @Nomad347 2010-03-26

Probably related to Sleepenabler but please provide more info

Field Note #3 @coley 2010-03-27

I really could with some help with this too. Same thing happened to me when I tried to update.

I am a complete newbie to all this however I managed to get a solid install with this board everything seems to be working spot on (I think).

I have installed loads of stuff and all works well.

When I get to this system needs to restart what are my options

complete format and start again
or can I go back to 10.6.0 somehow

I know this is probably written somewhere on the forum but having great trouble finding and understanding the correct way of going about it.

@fantome2024 if you found a solution please it for me thanks.

I had exactly the same issues as you did.

Basically, rebuild your system from scratch following whatever guide you originally used (I followed this one →). Then download the 10.6.1 update from the Apple support site (support.apple.com/kb/DL930), install and reboot.

Then download the 10.6.2 update from the Apple site (support.apple.com/kb/DL958) and install. When it asks you to restart, open up Finder, go into your /Extra/Extensions folder and replace SleepEnabler.kext with the 10.6.2 version which can be found here ↗. Run Pfix and reboot and you should have a fully functioning 10.6.2 Hackintosh.

Please note, you shouldn't install that version of SleepEnabler until you've upgraded to 10.6.2 because it'll give you a Kernel panic on boot.
