Leopard 10.5.3 is out and ready for all mac users,
except for some of us Hackintosh users. Until now, a little script that makes 10.5.3 work!
Credit goes to netkas and iSkylla
Update 1: Getting Root Error Message, Probably means you have to revert to 10.5.2
Update 2: Ok the fix, It seems user, get an error message like this
what you need to do is backup your old IOAHCIFamily.kext and replace it with the new one
Ok first open terminal
sudo -s
*type password*
while sleep 1; do rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext; done
Open 10.5.3 Update Installer
Run update BUT DO NOT RESTART
Go back to your terminal and press Control C to end the script
In terminal type:
nano /System/InstallAtStartup/scripts/1
Replace the line Dont Steal Mac OS X.kext with dsmos.kext
Restart and boot with -v
It will start loading and then you will get the message MACH_REBOOT, there you can hard reboot your computer. When you reach the darwin boot screen again, boot with -v again just for safe measure and it will boot fine.
Enjoy.
thanks for this! now I’ve been able to update mine as well!
good afternoon,
I would like to know how to fix the following problem:
after running 10.5.3 Update Installer, I have restarted my hackintosh.
So, do you know if now, there is a way to make 10.5.3 work
because now there is “restart message” every time I try to sart my computer.
Thank you very much.
