Hi,

I have a 20GB external hard drive that I want to install OS X on because my laptop's HD is rather small and I have some difficulty partitioning it. I have a LG R400 with the following specs:

- ATI X2300 Graphic Card (128MB VRAM)
- Intel T2130 CPU (1.86GHz Core2Duo)
- 2.5GB RAM
- Atheros AR5007EG Wifi Card
- Realtek Speakers

I was wondering what distro of OS X would be able to give support for my wifi card (dont really mind not having speakers) and install without much problems?

Which kernel should I use since someone said I shouldn't use Vanilla (I have downloaded iDeneb v1.4)?

Which patches should I use with my laptop (I chose my X2300 driver, Vanilla kernel, tried voodoo kernel as well, and the cpus=1 fix patches but the install didnt work both times)

How can I go about installing iDeneb v1.4 on a external HD, and getting it to install and boot from the external HD (so that I can use windows when I need to and when I want to use OS X I just plug in the HD - I can set up the BIOS to load from external HD first).


Thanks alot, I am new to OSx86 - I have tried installing OSX on my laptop partition and it didnt work.
