What architecture are you using, Intel?
[cite] seren:I cant get Marvins Utility to run; I just freshly installed Rev2 and when I run Marvins Utility I get "Marvins Utility Is Not Supported On This Architecture."
With intel works as well. Some models of intel nforce chipset based must use marvin for a success install of leopard.
Didn't know, thanks for enlightening me. =)

Well, if that's the case for seren, then the question should be "why are you on these forums if you're using an Intel?" Hehe
I actually get this message on my amd opteron in leopard, thats really strange. Perhaps marwins utility does not have my cpuid (opteron 144)? You can launch the app anyway just right click on the package and then click "show contents" (or similair im not on the english version). Then enter Contents/MacOS. Now you just double click on the file Applet and Marwins utility will launch.
are you running from a Case-Sensitive HFS+ volume? the utility cannot handle that.
You can edit the volume's name if you want. It is possible you know. =)

WinLinMac01: it's not just the name, it's the way the drive is formatted. case-sensitive formatting and marvin's just don't mix well.
True though.
