tried to update with 10.5.4 ComboUpd

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

Author Update #2 @erick2red 2009-01-17 ↳ Re: @nfoav8or
@nfoav8orwell 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…

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

Author Update #6 @erick2red 2009-01-19 ↳ Re: @eMatoS
@eMatoSYou need matching system.kext and kernel, it usually gives usb problems.

Field Note #1 @Dies 2009-01-16

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.

Field Note #2 @nfoav8or 2009-01-17

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)

Field Note #3 @eMatoS 2009-01-19

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

Field Note #4 @OrangeJuice 2009-01-19

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