I have done that but i still get the issues

I have a minimulist(sp?) installation as far as I am aware.

I have installed with your 10.5.4 distribution (only distro that actually gets a bootable system for me) with only nforce chipset drivers installed. then i ripped out the alc888 from the dvd for my audio and i have a working nforcelan kext. I've then added disabler, appledecrypter and applesmbiosefi and dsmos kexts. repaired persmissions, deleted mkext etc and still having a bootable 10.5.4 which i have then backed up entirely.

I had another go with ideben 1.4 10.5.6 last night and that would install but not boot afterwards. iPC just refuses to even boot up the installer, it just hangs. I've even diabled my sata in the pc so it's not accessable and using just the two ide channel i have on this board, hd master, dvd slave.

I would be ever so grateful if someone could give me a a step by step guide to updating from 10.5.4 to 10.5.5 because I am either stupid or I am missing something somewhere and I don't think I am stupid


As it stands your distro works perfectly for me apart from no accelerated graphics hence the requirement to go to 10.5.5 as the things I've read that I need to do have to be on 10.5.5, that's if i have read correctly)

kindest regards

.ps. What would i need to get around the memory limit issues? I have 8gb showing in 10.5.4 but i have read and have been told that it could cause an issue as it is over 4gb.
