mdg1618 Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 Hello Conti, Yes, I know that my system was a little “screwed up†before, but I did perform a clean install and did try to install the Extras folder you provided me through MyHack’s “Install extrasâ€. I do not know why I am still having trouble installing updates on Snow Leopard. I recently went through my complete BIOS setup again and made yet another fresh install. I was able to install Snow Leopard 10.6.7 with sound and Internet, but when I tried to install 10.6.8, so that I can finally install Mountain Lion I got this message: “com_chucko_RealktekR1000 : Ethernet address 6c:f0:49:e4.d4:xx ** Device in slot : SLOT –1 **†After I make an updated, am I supposed to run “My Fix†thereafter or any other task or can I just reboot my system and see if problems arise and then address them? I have been dealing with this matter for over two weeks now and do not see a quick solution to my problem as of yet. Any assistance from anybody would be of great service.

mdg1618 Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 Steps taking to solve my upgrade problem: 1. Installed myHack 2. Made a 10.6 installer USB through myHack 3. Installed 10.6.7 (Maybe not needed, but I installed 10.6.2 first got my sound and Internet connection to work then installed 10.6.6 and finally installed 10.6.7) 4. I then went to /System/Library/Extensions (S/L/E) and copied all the 10.6.7 ATI kexts and placed them in a folder on my desktop 5. I upgraded to 10.6.8 and did not reset after upgrade was finished 6. I went back to /System/Library/Extensions (S/L/E) and deleted all the 10.6.8 ATI kext 7. I then copied all my 10.6.7 ATI kext from the folder on my desktop and placed them in to /System/Library/Extensions (S/L/E) 8. I placed my myHack USB 10.6 installer back in my computer’s USB slot and restarted my computer 9. During the boot screen I pressed F12 (Gigabyte Motherboard) to select my USB for the boot device 10. Once in myHack I installed “My own Extras†(you can choose “Use Generic One†if you do not have your own), then I ran “Run myFixâ€, “Install Chameleonâ€, “Install myHack Utilities†and then “Remove Problematic Extensions†11. I restarted my system and finally had 10.6.8 working on my system. Happy Hacking mdg1618 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
