For some reason when I try to upgrade, about 70% through the upgrade it changes my password. I can't access the InstallAtStartup folder anymore and can't replace my extensions. Anyone have an idea on what the heck is going on?

You try use original dmg or Kalyway (or other) updates?

I am using the original 10.5.4 pkg from apple and the exact steps you had listed. I have tried 4 times now and each time after I start the install the password gets changed. Is this something new they added in?

Well, I don't see this problem over the net.

If not works from you, you need to waiting somebody makes a "modified" update.

I am running into a problem and hoping there is a simple(ish) fix. I follow the guide step by step and the patch (10.5.2) installs without a problem. After editing the "1" file etc I reboot the machine and it sits there at the Apple logo screen with the spinning wheel. When I do a "-x" the HDD activity light stays on longer, but in both cases when i do a "-v" it also stops at "BSD root 14 (or 15) Major, 1 minor"

The weird thing was that tonight after my 7th go at upgrading from 10.5.1 > 10.5.2 .. I used a different guide which instead of using a terminal command to delete the cpumanagement.kext it said to manually delete it when it appeared. Now I did this, and i got a kernel panic shortly after and the update never fully installed. Now the weird part is that when i rebooted the computer after the panic, the computer got stuck at the same point as when I successfully installed the patch. Now this leads me to believe that whatever is causing the problem is affecting it whether it fully installs or only partly.

I hope someone can shed some insight into this as it is getting rather frustrating. My basic setup is

kalyway 10.5.1 installed with vanialla kernel using EFI_MBR
Gigabyte 965p-DS3
C2D @ 1.8Ghz
Nvidia 8600 GT

One more note, I do have a gamepad, mouse and keyboard all hooked up in USB. Now they do actually all light up just before it hangs.

Is there a log file i can post or something else to help ? If so let me know

Boot using -v and post back screen of error. Best way to see what happened there.
