10.5.5 upgrade?

Has anybody succesfully installed the 10.5.5. update?

I have tried the 'Mysticus' method using the pre and post pacthers (http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php? ... 109102&hl=) but this resulted in that I could only boot in safe mode.
The other method described on Insamelymac;
do rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext; done
+ the additional DSMOS steps did not work for me as just after the apple update the OS wanted to restart, so no possibility to do:nano /System/InstallAtStartup/scripts/1

If someone has a good/proven different method for upgrading to upgrade to 10.5.5 please post your steps here.

Ciao,

tried a few times and gave up. I heard the new version of Kalyway will work.

 

If anyone has success in any 10.5.5 upgrades methods, please post results and info here....I'm standing by to upgrade myself. I'm running iAtkos. I'd happily try myself and contribute my results but I'm running my hackintosh in a production environment (yeah, that stable) and can't afford the downtime.

Thanks,

Derek

 

I used this method, http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=129774
this method works. then I change the kernel to Voodoo Beta2 w/c gives me way better performance than the vanilla kernel

 

Out of curiosity, how are you measuring performance of your kernel?

 

There are several 3rd party applications you can use to measure or monitor your OSX's performance, Xbench, Geekbench, IStats Menus(monitoring).

My Xbench score in
Vanilla kernel is around 35 to 37
Voodoo Beta2 is 42 to 44

Or even without 3rd party apps you can still measure it using Activity Monitor.
try watching a video in youtube
In Vanilla Kernel or cpus=1 your cpu usage will be around 80% to 90% (bcoz hyperthreading doesn't work)
watch the same youtube video
In Voodoo Beta2 cpu usage will be around 46% to 60+%
