No it wont install on a Pentium 4 machine. You need a Core 2 Duo spec.
@johnnycomposureNo it wont install on a Pentium 4 machine. You need a Core 2 Duo spec.
Patched Kernel by quoopz! will make you able to run Snow Leopard on a P4 - even if it's one that doesn't support SSE3.
@MayrThank you for the answers. Is there any special tutorial I should follow?
I recommend you to install 10.5 Leopard first with including the thaught of creating a second Partition for Snow Leopard.
Once you have Leopard running you can follow this Guide to install 10.6 "Snow Leopard":
And to use this Kernel → at the "Making it work" step. Good Luck.
