Do you have a Space in your Drive name like "S10 HDD" or something like that? Spaces in the name of your boot-drive are a bad idea in OS X. They will break a lot of (I think poor written) Scripts depending on their usage of Parameters. e.g. if you have a Variable BOOTDRIVE an try something like /Volumes/${BOOTDRIVE}/usr/bin/open ... this will result in /Volumes/S10 not found inside a UNiX shell.

If this is the case for you, rename your Drive using Finder and try again.

Well, for starters.. does your S10 have a BT module? I ask because depending on where you live and bought it from, you'll either have it or not.

Can anyone tell me...is it ok to update to 10.5.6 by downloading the 10.5.6 combo update from the apple site and then installing the .dmg file on my s10....because i don't have a wireless connection here i have only the LAN connection which can't be used on s10. Is it the one and the same thing updating by Apple software update and downloading and installing manually???

Wow. I've got everything - or almost everything - working. With the help of this guide, some knowledge from an older hackintosh-experience and some other guides. But...

Seems like I can't actually turn _off_ the internal Bluetooth on my S10e. This is not good for getting my netbook to sleep, I guess... Anything I can do short of removing all .kexts that have to do with Bluetooth? (I don't _really_ need it...)
