    I’m working with the 10.6.3 reference release disc and following the quick start instructions. When InstaUp2Date runs it can’t find the Airport Utility update, perhaps because Apple has now posted version 5.5.3 and it is looking for 5.5.2. Here is the actual error message:

    Hey there,

    These are the steps I performed to clear this up:
    1.Open Safari, go to support.apple.com/downloads
    2. right click on the Download button under the new AirportUtility and choose ‘Copy Link’
    3. Open terminal, and depending on the path to where instadmg is, paste this:

    bash-3.2$ /instadmg/AddOns/InstaUp2Date/checksum.py http://support.apple.com/downloads/DL1390/en_US/AirPortUtility553.dmg
    AirPortUtility553.dmg  downloaded AirPortUtility553.dmg (10.3 Megabytes) in 1 mi	AirPortUtility553	http://support.apple.com/downloads/DL1390/en_US/AirPortUtility553.dmg	sha1:9a2ebd9333d780fe280120f58e4af5bea51a3958

    4. Copy the output(from “AirportUtility553 through to the end of the sha1 value) and paste it over the pre-existing AirportUtility line in the 10.6_vanilla.catalog file (using a text editor that won’t swap tabs for spaces) and save it.
    5. ???
    6. Profit

    Thanks, I can’t seem to reply to any post without the SPAM filter thinking I’m a spammer. Hopefully this one will get through.

    I followed your instructions and that worked perfectly. Are there any reasons why I can’t add more updates to the vanilla catalog as they come out using the same method? When using the GUI for Software Update, they seem to come down in two batches with a reboot in between. Is this a cause for concern using InstaUp2Date? Thanks again.
