for the people they have problems to upgrade to this kernel:

in my case i had to clear the caches after installing the kernel and system.kext

simply type:

sudo rm /System/Library/Extensions.mkext
sudo rm -R /System/Library/Extensions/Caches/
and reboot

that worked in my case!

befor i did this i got some strange kernel panics

Try booting with DVD and reinstalling kernel 9.4.0 and system.kext. Did you install it manually or did you use kext helper? Maybe it was not properly installed.

@Lnerrrka

permissions for System.kext and mach_kernel are different.

<b>sudo-s
cp -R /path/to/mach_kernel /
chmod -R 644 /mach_kernel && chown -R root:wheel /mach_kernel
cp -R /path/to/System.kext /System/Library/Extensions/
chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/ && chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/</b>

and yes, it would help if you cleaned the caches after this.

kernel update to 9.4.0 - went just fine, but (!) system.kext (ver. 9.4.0) ruins my system ( luckily i have timemachine working - good tip: make tm backup before evri system update)
Tried to install the kext with 1) OSXtools, 2) kexthelper, 3)manually with chown+chmod, repair permissions - all the same -kernel panic or reboot loop.
so i'm still using system.kext ver 9.2.2, having no problem at all.
What is the real advantage of this new kext? Do i really need it?
my system :
10.5.4
kernel 9.4.0
Venice 3800
nforce4
GeForce 8500 512mb


P.S.
Tip:
if u have old 10gb disk, restore install dvd on it - otherwise 10 min booting from dvd is frustrating, every time when u need to restore the system...

I used the kernel installer linked in a post over at Leo4All I believe... That, along with "Kext Helper" made it easy to install the 9.4 kernel & system.kext on my 780G install. I updated 10.5.3 w/9.3 -> 10.5.4 w/9.4 using Zephyroth ASU 0.5, the kernel installer, and kext helper... It was easy and worked great.
