LOL! I thought Apple had FINALLY created a magic bullet which would kill my Hackintosh, but a simple fix out-foxed Apple on that score. Yes, there was a magic bullet, under the guise of AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext, but if you opened TERMINAL session and then looped on rm /S/L/E/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext the 10.5.5 update would go. Thereafter, and before restarting, you CTRL-c'd out of the loop and replaced the text in a certain startup file whereby "Dont Steal Mac OS X,kext" became "dsmos.kext". I'm not "stealing" Mac OS X. I have a receipt for the full retail version of the darn thing, and I have its media and all packaging, too! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
