Wanted to bring this thread back to the top to complete what I have recently found.
My crashing and freezing after updating I am pretty sure is due to a cheap USB 2 controller for a hard drive enclosure I bought before Circuit City went down.
After unplugging the hard drive I have had no ill effects so far from updating to OS 10.5.7.
