Installing & patching 10.5 flat img
i just got a copy of Leopard 10.5 flat image and im confused as to weither it can only run on SSE2 Intel CPUs or both Intel and AMD. if not is there a way to patch the kernel to work with AMD. btw my CPU is an AMD Turion 64 x2 TL-62 and supports SSE, SSE2, & SSE3. I dont need help installing the image just wondering if itll run on my CPU, so no lengthy guides, thanks.

Get out of the stoneage and use a real installer DVD.
|
hmmm i would but every DVD ive tried fails to find my HDD on both my desktop and laptop.
|
Have you heard of iPC...?
|
yeah sir, that doesnt work either. i have a generic AMD OS 10.5.1, LawlessPPC Phenon & AMD 10.5, and OSX86 Beta.
Anyways... back to my original question.... would i be able to patch the flat image to run on AMD and nforce/nvidia? |
Only if there are PPF's for it. Otherwise, no.
|
well technically... yes.
You can use TransMac to access this drive from within windows and also to place it on the hard drive in the first place. You can then manipulate the drive to fix the OS to work with your system. I do agree with Hara Taiki in that you may not get it running with your system if you aren't able to install it from any of the distros out there for OSx86, but I think you can at least tinker with the flat installed image through Transmac. |
It's a lot harder with Transmac or MacDrive, because if the OS X drive panics, you have to force restart, which doesn't properly sync the drive, forcing you to reboot that drive first before doing mods through Windows, otherwise in Windows it will whine about corruption. And if it panics before you can get into -s, then it's even worse.

you use Transmac from within Windows to manipulate the drive when running windows but you aren't using Transmac to RUN OSx86... you restart the computer after the manipulation so you don't have to worry about corruption through Windows.
