Now its time to update Mac from 10.6.3 to 10.6.8

WARNING

DO NOT use mac's default software updater as ur Hackintosh will Crash/give u Kernel panic or fail to boot

Use the DMG file downloaded from apple's website or u found on google (10.6.8 combo update)

mount the dmg file and u will get a pop-up folder with 10.6.8 combo update pkg file in it

just install it....installation will take up to 15/20min after its done will give u an

option th restart dont restart....PLEASE DONT RESTART

Open [url=&quot;http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/&quot;]#####[/url] and go to the Miscellaneous tab u will find USB Rollback( The update will replace your IOUSBFamily.kext)

and ur usb will work with this...update

go to the Bootloader option u will find Chimera bootloader only install tht as will work fr ati/nvdia on amd pc

LAST BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO DO BEFORE RESTARTING OPEN Nawcom's new 10.6.8v2

AND INSTALL THE PKG FILE WHICH WILL REPLACE THE KERNEL TO LEGACY WILL ALTER UR SLEEP MODE AND WILL NOT GIVE U

PCIE ERROR

After installing Nawcom's PKG restart and u will b able to Boot in to MAC 10.6.8

Sucsess full installation of Mac 10.6.8

No pcie error

 

Thanks Nawcom Again fr the kernels and PKG....
