10.5.8 Update Released.
How to update:
install Disabler.kext
install this dsmos.kext ( a bit updated to be present in mkext)
reboot
create backup of Extensions folder. just in case:
sudo cp -rf /System/Library/Extensions /System/Library/Extensions_old
update !
good luck
if smth wrong with your drivers after update – u have a backup 😉
some info:
for radeon hd 48×0 users, binary of Motmot wasnt updated, so if u used patched framebuffers, should work fine still.
for radeonhd 4870×2 4890 4830 users – you will loose qe/ci/3d after update, wait for proper patch.
dont remove AppleIntelCPUPM.kext until install finished, or it will stop with error.
After update done, and you have rebooted twice, remove Disabler.kext and AppleIntelCPUPowe….kext

Confirmed: Sleep working after removing disabler.kext on Intel BX2.
“working like a charm here with AppleIntelCPUPowermanagement running”
Yeah – but of cost of much higher CPU temp (=higher powerconsumption) especially in non high CPU% usage.
I will wait for an other solution and simple will not use sleep with that bad side effect.
I got the “Still waiting for root device” error as well. IOATAFamily.kext has not changed. But, after some tooling around, 10.5.8 is not detecting my second SATA controller any more. I replugged my Leopard disk into the first SATA controller, and everything boots find. I’m using an ASUS P5E-VM SE. Any clues on getting this back to work again?
OK. Solved my network problem. Had to restore IONetwork.kext.
Typing this with Safari on a MacOSX-pc 10.5.8…
Did not install or changed anything for my Ati 4870. Did not delete AppleIntelCpuPM.
Everything seems fine. I do not use the sleep function.
Is it required to replace AppleDecrypt.kext with your dsmos?
Hi. I’m not a bash expert. Does anyone have the exact syntax or code to restore it to 10.5.7 in single user mode (the Termnial when you boot up and there’s a count down). Stuff like unmount sudo, etc.
My backup is named Extendions_old and my Home is name OSX.
Thanks in advance.
Hey i have big problems my system wont start after update how can i restore my old extension folder PLSSSSS HELLLLLLPPPP
Work great . Thx Netkas 🙂
Work’s great thanks ! (GA-EP45-UD3P 1.1)
BIOS: MEM at AUTO etc., CPU:Enable TM,C1E,Speedstep, Vander etc.)
iATKOS 10.5.7 –>> 10.5.8 🙂
Step one: put Disabler.kext into /Extensions
Step two: Reboot
Step three: Run Apple Software Update to install the 10.5.8 Update.
Step:Four: It will reboot twice.
Step five: Delete the Disabler.kext file and reboot !
Step six: Enjoy ! 🙂
Hi. The graphics card doesn’t seem to be loading. I have a backup of the 10.5.7 called Extensions_old. How do I fix this in single user mode? Thanks in advance.

You hosed it ! Just redo it, You’ll “Learn” faster more on your own then trying to find the problem on the net. 🙂
Not, sure if this means anything, BUT I just added a Apple Mighty Mouse, and a Apple keyboard to the mix, SIMPLY Awesome ! 🙂
(Let’s see…OHH yeah ! The Mouse connects to the keyboard !! 🙂
Hey there guys!
Does Ati RADEON HD4670 work with this update?
Many thanks in advance!!
//NO
In addition, I was forced to put back keyboard drivers (ApplePS2Controller.kext, AppleACPIPlatform.kext) and run patch27ae to fix video.
I have Lenovo R60 laptop.
Upgrade OK from iPC 10.5.6 > 10.5.7 > 10.5.8 following your instructions and using the files given. Only sound input to tarugize again.
Mobo is Gigabyte G33M-DS2R with E2140.
Thanks for the awesome works, guys!
Hi,
I have OSX 10.5.7 on EVGA X58 SLI mobo.
Everything worked.
I upgraded to 10.5.8 according to your directions, used
Terminal, Kext helper b7. I booted into 10.5.8 but
I lost audio. I restored extensions using OSX86 tools
(I’m a newbie at this, not so versed in Terminal)
Finally I restored Extensions using OSX86 tools.
Still no audio although the restoration went OK.
Did I do something wrong or is this mobo so different than
everything else?
thanks, I appreciate your great work.
install Disabler.kext
install this dsmos.kext ( a bit updated to be present in mkext)
Where should I install Extra folder or System\Library\Extension ? pls help!

Hi. After 10 days it’s finally fixed. If it fails. Backup everything first (Time Machine is good coz’ you can restore it using the DVD). If it was working before 10.5.8 try removing the ATINDRV.kext before rebooting (you’ll need a password set up) or remove it at the single user mode. Do research on terminal commands and bash.
-s
umount -uw /
cd /Volumes/nameOfyourdisk/System/Library/Extensions
rm -rf /System/Library/ATINDRV.kext
Thanks. Gbu.
*mount instead of umount, sorry
Неткас, все хорошо, но зачем же ты на кору всем дисейблер на советовал. Я уже давно завел нативное управление питанием, через ДСДТ (Gusar) и никакому дисейблеру этого не снилось. Кстати, с новым дсмсом система стала заметно тормознутей. Извини.
///щаз будешь смеятся, новый дсмос это тот же самый старый, только plist отредактировал 😛 , а дисайблер он для универсальности
Hi, I am really new to hackintosh.
I installed retail leopard 10.5.6 and now I would like to update it to 10.5.8.
My question is do I need to follow this instruction or just download the dmg file and install it?
This guide is only needed for non retail leopard?
Sorry about those questions.
Alvin, post a solution if you find one, i’m suffering the same problem in i7 10.5.8
Hi, want to ask if I need to edit string:
/System/Library/Extensions/Dont Steal Mac OS X.kext
and replace it with:
/System/Library/Extensions/dsmos.kext
Thanks
///no need
Thank you so much for all the great tutorials…. Every time I’m not sure about something you have the answer!!! You Rock!
if you’re stuck in a boot loop after update, how do you boot back in to restore your backed up files?
netkas, finally decided to do this update. must say, couldn’t do it with out you!
All the best!
Hi Netkas,
Thanks for this tutorial, it worked lik e a charm.
One drawback though, stand-by mode doesn’t work anymore. Any suggestions where to look.
Keep up the good work!!

I have updated my iAtkos v7 (10.5.7) to 10.5.8 using iDened combo update and it works flawlesly. Are u using the latest bios 0572? For Intel DP35DP, if you have “still waiting for root device” message, enter BIOS setup and try changing the SATA mode from AHCI (default) to IDE.

[…] the Procedures to Update. Only Phase 2 for Osxtool was not able to run. With same guideline from netkas.org 10.5.8 Update Released.. I end up with an Continuous reboot over and over again. Use the -v -s -f -x methods from Darwin […]
yup, even months and months later, netkas u are still the man.
Hello, I just updated my iPC 10.5.7 to 10.5.8 using these instructions. After the update, I got the dreaded infinite reboot problem so I restored my kexts and mach_kernel from a backup I made prior to running the updater.
My infinite reboot issue was resolved as a result of the restoration, however, now I’m getting the error “Couldn’t alloc class ‘Apple8259PICInterruptController'”.
I googled the issue and google returned 0 results for this problem.
I was hoping you guys could help me figure out what exactly is going on here and how I can resolve this issue without having to reinstall iPC to get this computer back up and running.
Thank you so much!
