when you use a native Apple installer, it rewrites over the existing mach_kernel to update it to the new one... to circumvent this in the future, have a two copies of the voodoo kernel in the root directory: one named "mach_kernel" and the other "mach_kernel.voodoo"
when you want to update, use the mach_kernel.voodoo kernel and make sure you keep entering this in your boot flags until you've run the following in Terminal:
Code:
sudo cp -Rf /mach_kernel.voodoo /mach_kernel
This will replace the native Apple mach_kernel with a renamed copy of the Voodoo Kernel.
Cheers.
