iSheep Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Hi guys, Just quick question: I have Dell XPS L502x running 10.9.1 smoothly without any problem. Just wondering, is it safe if I want to update to 10.9.4 via apple combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1755 ? Did anyone having some issue after updating? any experience worth to share please? Btw, I use Chameleon bootloader in this case. Thanks a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iSheep Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 Oh, really? this update will replace my previous mach_kernel as well? When I update from 10.9.0 to 10.9.1 only my applehda that need to be re-installed so I have no experience replace or reinstall my mach_kernel. I Google it but still no luck on how to replace or install my mach_kernel after a combo update. I'm not using multishit whatsoever since the beginning of my installation, I only use the image from this forum and patch manually one by one whatever kext that need to be patched. Any help how to perform this action will be appreciated. Maybe can be useful also for anyone else out there that have the same problem. Thanks a lot!

nixones Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Updating a Hackintosh PC could be a pain in the ass, before you start the update, backup all your working kexts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
