Install from original Leopard DVD
 
OSX86 community has grown rapidly through last few years. We have great bootloaders, kernels, many patches and extensions to make are hardware working on Leopard...

Are we close to day when installation from original Leopard DVD will be possible? For example you boot from USB flash drive, then load Leopard install disc, and then proceed with the installation as we do on regular Mac hardware? :)

Already possible buddy. Been around for a few months now ;) That's just my tutorial, there are loooads of different variations all over the web, research boot132 and chameleon :D

I was too lazy to try that but it's not that hard.

-Created bootable CD with motherboard kexts and voodoo kernel.
-Booted from CD, Installed Leopard
-First system boot done via CD, then installed Chameleon 2 and Voodoo kernel

Works great now. :-)

Just a question. In your tutorial, you said that one needs an Intel CPU to boot the Retail Leopard DVD. Is this only the Intel CPU or does one need an Intel Chipset as well?
