![]() Hi all
I went the following path to upgrade to 10.5.6 ![]() 1. got the 10.5.6 combo upgrade from Apple, 2. made copy of my kexts and good faith ![]() 3. Started upgrade, Finished ok. 4. Forgot to remove AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext (or similar - more on that later). 5. On top of that (no reboot yet) I reinstalled Voodoo kernel 9.5.0 + Disabler.kext. 6. Reboot I never got past the booting screen (grey screen apple logo). ![]() Went in with single user ( -s ) and removed AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext, the kextcaches, etc and noticed in the "1" script that there is a line "kextload Dont_Steal..." which I modified to read "kextload dsmos.kext". ![]() Machine rebooted into Leopard ![]() System profiled and "About this Mac" crashed. Found fix to replace AppleSMBIOS.kext with another one, I got one from somewhere (this was about 1am so I dont remember all detail) and voila! worked. ![]() ![]() Current problem: Machine does not reboot properly or shutdown. I have to use reset and power buttons for that. It seems to me an ACPI module issue? maybe the AppleACPI*.kext from 10.5.6 does not work on AMD? Any ideas, proposals, solutions? Should I replace it with something else? Thanks in advance... hackint0sh noobie ![]() LawlessPPC-Phenom-AMD now 10.5.6 working!

did you replace the system kext with the 9.5 to match your kernel

It does so; the installer for Voodoo 9.5 says it includes matching System.kext.

yeah, but maybe you need to do it by yourself, the installer could be a little buggy.
