Currently the update will work on Intel SSE3 only using this method:

1: Install 10.4.5 as a normal bootable install. it might work on later installs this is all i've tested
2: Boot into newly installed system.

Backup files for after 10.4.9 update
3: sudo -s
mkdir /backup
cp -R /System/Library/Extensions/* /backup

4: Run apple software update and install 10.4.9 update
****DO NOT RESTART AFTER INSTALLATION****

5: Update your kernel, I prefer this script created by Prasys. it does all the work for you and updates the kernel with the newest version from semthex' website. READ THIS THREAD FIRST THOUGH!!! there are problems known with this process.

6: for my GMA950 I ran this in terminal: cp -R /backup/AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext /System/Library/Extensions

7: per Kiko's suggestion replace system.kext with old copy, type in terminal: cp -R /backup/System.kext /System/Library/Extensions

8: Copy this AppleSMBIOS.kext to /System/Library/Extensions.

9: Copy this IOATAFamily.kext to /System/Library/Extensions.

10: Repair permissions with Disk Utility.
11: Reboot, don't be surprised when it reboots on it's own

Follow this thread for updates.

Update: SSE2 for Intel now found using this guide.
