What Netbook: Dell 10v

NetBoookBootMaker 0.8.4 RCL

After I did all a normal install using the mechdrew guideline, I used 
NetBookBootInstaller 0.8.4 post installation, and most things worked fine 
except for the sleep/wake issue which I fixed by resetting the Administrator 
password and applying the "sudo" changes.  At this point everything worked fine!

Then I tried to do the update to 10.6.8 which seemed to go okay.  When the 
update was finished, the system did a reboot/restart and while it was trying to 
reboot, instead of the Apple logo on the screen, there was an image of the Dell 
10v and the twirler just kept going and going.  So, I powered down to force a 
reboot and when it came up again, I got the reboot cycle described above.

Has Apple finally figured out what we are doing with the NetBooks and built in 
a fix to block us from doing it?
