Field Note #1 @farcaller 2008-03-13

There is no PPF for rev2 because the diff size was too near to iso size itself.

Field Note #2 @WinLinMac01 2008-03-13

If the PPF was applied as Zephyroth had said earlier, the size would be too large and would have to require each of us to burn a dual layer 8.5GB disk instead. Would you want to do that? I don't think so. =)

Field Note #3 @BBeard 2008-03-13

I apologise for my bad English

Whether costs hopes for exit PPF for Leopard-10.5.2-AMD-EFI (rev 1) here with these critical corrections:
1 - New options

----> Single Boot & Dual Boot

Under Single Boot
---> Darwin MBR EFI v8
---> Darwin GUID EFI v8 (fixed)

2 - New ToH kernel 9.2.0 (reboot & shutdown fix for some systems).

Various fix:
---> AppleSMBIOS-27 (Revison 3 - Updated 18/02/2008 - Fix CS3)

I cannot download 4Gb every time (i have only 64k unlim)

Field Note #4 @gaz919 2008-03-13

To tell the truth, Im not downloading or installing the new rev 2

I have a mostlly fully working version of 10.5.2 on raid, all my devices are installed and detected. I use guid already, the manual method wasn't so hard.

I have updated the kernel and most of the new kexts already that are in the new update. + There have been a few problems with a few programs in rev 2 such as ichat and such, that zeph commented he may have made a mistake with.

In my opinion you are better off using rev 1 and learning a bit about leopard and unix by installing the update kernel and any kexts you need, installing the guid manually.

If you need any help updating to the same as rev 2 we can give you advice, there is really no need to download rev 2 unless you have a sata dvd drive, or could not install rev 1 due to hardware problems.

please don't feel its necessary to update to 10.5.2 rev 2 as it can all be done manually with a little effort, unless of course you cannot install rev 1.

Good Luck most of the install commands for the rev 2 updates can be found in this forum

You make sense, and nothing to comment about your post. You are doing what is right. I would do the same, but unfortunately, I consider myself too savvy, lol. =)
