If that is the one, copy that kext file into your desktop on Revision 2, and use Kext Helper to help patch that extension in. If all goes fine, the Utility will ask you to reboot your system and keep your fingers crossed. =) Most likely, in every scenario, installing kexts work for me.

Yes, you should be able inject this kext before you get to the welcome screen. If not, try replacing the rev.2 usb package with the one included in rev.1 and repatch the DVD (since you said in your first post, that the USB Mouse and Keyboard combo worked with rev.1, right, "...i canīt use my USB-Mouse and USB-Keyboard (both Logitech) , so im not able to install this release. in 10.5.1. USB Support worked...")

@standard, if your 10.5.1 works fine, then you only need the 10.5.2 update by eddie, you donīt need a clean install.

@WinLinMac01 , If some people want the support for Sata DVD, why are you saying they need a clean install? itīs not necessary , please think about the answers ok? they only need the new AppleNforceAta.kext not a clean install.

I didn't realize about the support I gave for the SATA DVD (should have proofread). Yes, they only need the new AppleNforceATA, by Medevil.
How is going to do the 10.5.2 update when his combo does not work? If thats the case, he should rather stick with the 10.5.1 release, and then upload manually from there using eddie11c's update. =)

Not exactly, its not a PPF. Instead its a standard installer available at http://osx.kbot.de/comments.php?DiscussionID=300&page=1
for discussion purposes only. Unfortunately, at the time being, the link is broken, and should be repaired soon.

the update is a pkg and only works if you have a working 10.5.1, but if you want inject a kext into the ISO go (if you have a tiger or leo install) here if you are in windows, download transmac open the iso and inject your kext.

edit: you can try enable only USB 1.1 and disable 2.0 or plug your device after install dvd boot
