When I installed Leopard 10.5.6 I do not remember modifying any DSDT file and
I have successfully ugraded to 10.5.7 and then 10.5.8 and the system is extremely
stable. No issues at all.

I consider myself a noob yet so bear with me.

1. Where is the DSDT file on my current system?

2. Can I use a copy of that DSDT to install Snow Leopard?

3. Where is the DSDT file that everyone says you must modify.

4. How do you modify the DSDT?

5. Is there a tutorial on DSDT modification?

6. Is there a DSDT on the Snow Leopard DVD?

7. If there is a DSDT on Snow Leopard, is that the one I have to Modify?

8. Is there a utility to display my current DSDT so I can extract info from there
if I need it?
