What the??? It's a 32GB SSD with about 15GB free, and currently has 10.5.6 on it.

Any ideas??

That delta update is only if you already have 10.5.7 installed, you need the combo.

You need the Combo update (745mb), the regular update (274mb) is only for 10.5.7.

I just updated to 10.5.8 and ran DellEFI with remove custom dsdt.aml, reinstall Dell Mini 9 extensions, restore 10.5.5 keyboard pref pane, and fix bluetooth checked after restarting the computer boots to the grey screen with the apple and spinning gear the shuts down.

I tried to boot to safe mode but it does the same thing.

Just tried to restore from an older backup and it failed after restarting the computer it just goes to a black screen and has

Boot0: GPT
Boot0: testing
Boot0: testing
Boot0: error

and then i have to turn it off, it just keeps doing it. I have even tried to boot to the restore disk that came with the computer and it still does it.

Anyone have any ideas?

The boot0 issues is related to Chameleon. Have you tried re-installing it?

I did this and got sound back:
Start Dell EFI 1.2a5 and select Reinstall Dell Mini Extensions and Remove custom dsdt.aml File
Reboot
Start Dell EFI 1.2a5 and select Create custom dsdt.aml File and Fix Bluetooth
Reboot
Thanks fabfour.

Battery issue remains.
Fixed battery issue by using Kext Helper to install the AppleSMBIOS.kext
Thanks tea.
