Let's say you have a couple of "Macks" in your shop. And, let's say you also have a couple of Hacks in your shop, and all of them are using the "vanilla" MacOS X kernel and the hidden partition for your EFI emulator and Boot132 for your boot loader. And, let's say you have a 1 GB thumb drive with the file "MacOSXUpdCombo10.5.7.pkg" as a "flat" file on that thumb drive, plus you also have the audio packages which are needed for each Hack (none are needed for a "Mack", of course). Then, simply run "MacOSXUpdCombo10.5.7.pkg" against each "Mack" and/ or run "MacOSXUpdCombo10.5.7.pkg" against each Hack PLUS run the applicable audio package against each Hack, and Every "Mack" and Hack will be brought up to 10.5.7 and you will loose no functions PLUS you will gain all functions provided by 10.5.7. P.S. Some Netbooks use a different address for their GMA950, in which case you may have to edit the two GMA950 kexts. If you successfully got your Netbook Hack to 10.5.6, then you'll know which kexts those are. The site referenced below contains a number of audio packages which have been extensively tested, and are known to work.
