worked on AMD

Worked for me on my AMD system updating from XxX_10.5.6 with the voodoo kernel. I downloaded the stand alone installer from Apple and ran it through Zephyroth's AMD patcher just to be safe then backed up essential kexts... sound, video, etc. I had to replace the ATI drivers with the ones from my 10.5.6 install, but everything appears to be working fine.

HP Pavillion a1600n
AMD Athlon64 X2 3800+
2GB DDR2 RAM
200 GB SATA Hard Drive
ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro PCI express
Voodoo kernel 9.5
ALC 888 HD Audio

Worked for me as well. I installed via Pacifist since this is a non-vanilla capable machine and I need the 9.5.0 voodoo kernel.



I installed all new kexts except ATI and IntelGMA related, AppleHPET, AppleHWSensor, AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement and AppleUpstreamUserClient.

All the rest of the new audio and video related kexts work. Obviously I did not upgrade my SMBIOS, System and seatbelt kexts for compatibility with the kernel.



Since I have a 7600GS 512MB, I needed to add my Device ID to GeForce, NVDANV40Hal and NVDAResman and do:

Code:
chmod -R 775
and

Code:
chown -R root:wheel
on those kexts, then ran:

Code:
diskutil repairPermissions /
Which gave me back my acceleration.

Looks too easy. I'm downloading it now but I'll wait until my new hard drive comes in and clone my install, because like clockwork, the first time I install this OS update, it'll brick, no matter how easy it is.
BTW, Hara Taiki, where can I get the About This Mac logo you're showing off there? Me likey.
