So much reading and that in the early morning.^^

I'm worried about sleep. Can I do it?

What about trying it?

Runs hot sometimes. My laptop is known for doing that, and I haven't noticed anything major in the half-day I've had the dual-boot fully working too worrisome. But, I have the iStat Nano widget for dashboard, and it says no fans noticed. It sounds like they're on, but I want OSX to see them. Any tips?

I've been trying to update to 10.5.5 with no success. Tried with the "appleintelcpu..." script, without the script and still it always ends in me reverting to time machine backup. Did it yesterday and when it seemed to work, when I rebooted with "update -v" it said "no update found" or somet like that, then would hang in reboot loop with all other flags (-x, -f, -v, -s). I forgot sudo -s before the script that time, could it have really made all that difference?

You should install a Disabler Kernel Extensions! It's very important to disable some Kernel feature that aren't suitable for your CPU. I'd recommend you to use "NullCPUPowermanagement.kext" for this. - This will also prevent you from getting a Kernel Penic during the Systemupdate.
If you want to have to use the Powermanagement features of your AMD CPU, you should use VoodooPower by Superhai & the Voodoo Dev Team.

-Updating to 10.5.higher then 4, how?

First you should check if you are realy running the Voodoo Kernel! Got to the Terminal and enter "uname -a" to check and then report back - depending on that, I might explain you How-To continue doing this.

And forget about deleting stock kexts - get a bigger HD if you don't have enaugh disk space - as there is no other reason to this, if they don't trouble you!
