After you install the base 10.5, download & install the 10.5.8 combo update at http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_8_Combo_Update

Hi Jon,

Is this using a Retail Leopard/10.5 Install Disc, or a Gray machine specific Disc?

How much RAM does it have?

What exactly happens step by step?
