lanxxx, thank you for the instructions. I will try it out as soon as i have installed leopard again. For now, i switched back to tiger, because i have the feeling that some of the problems which appeared have nothing to to with installing leo on pc - i guess those safari crashes etc. are a leopard specific problem in general. i found a lot of topics in forums where people had problems with leopard (people who own a mac...).

by the way: those problems confuse me a little bit: i was thinking about getting a mac this year and now i am not more sure if osx is really that stable like i thought before... well, maybe wait for 10.5.3 and hope the best ...
