I am using VMware workstation 7.0.0, this should work with older versions but I have not tested it. Also, this may not work with processors other than Intel Core 2 Duo, Quad, and AMD dual core and quad core. i7 may work and then again may not. ENABLE VIRTUALIZATION IN YOUR BIOS IF YOU CAN.

1. Get an iAtkos ISO (Google is your friend).

2. Download and install VMware Workstation from here: http://downloads.vmware.com/d/info/desktop...workstation/7_0

3. Open VMware Workstation, click New Virtual Machine.

4. Click Custom (advanced) and click Next.

5. Click Next again.

6. Click Installer Disk Image File and then navigate to your .ISO file then click Next.

7. Click Other, FreeBSD and click Next.

8. Name your virtual machine something like iAtkos or Mac and click Next.

9. Don't change anything here, click Next.

10. Use 512MB of RAM and click Next.

11. Click Use bridge networking and click Next.

12. Leave the settings as they are and click Next.

13. Select Create a new virtual hard disk and click Next.

14. Use IDE, and click Next.

15. Make the disk 16GB or larger and click Next.

16. Name it Mac.vmdk and click Next.

17. Click Finish.

18. Now it will boot, wait for the prompt to come up then click in the screen and press F8. Now type put in -v -busratio=7 cpus=1 or type cpus -z to find out how big the busratio should be.

19. Wait for the install screen to load.

20. Okay, installer loaded. Click Utilities, Disk Utility.

21. Click the virtual hard disk and go to Erase then select Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and name it something that is one word like Mac then click erase.

22. Close Disk Utility once the erase is done.

23. Click Continue on the installer then read and agree to the terms.

24. Select your volume you just made and click Continue.

25. Click Customize. Change x86patches -> kernel, add voodoo 9.7.0 only, drivers->system-> sata-ide -> add intel sata/ide. ps/2 mouse/keyboard-> add voodoo ps2 driver. Click Done.

26. Now click Install and wait until it's done. Skip the disk check unless you like to waist time.

27. When it's done (if you are there) click Restart.

28. Boot from the virtual disk and hit F8, then type in -v -f busratio=7 cpus=1

29. For display drivers, refer to this: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...t=0&start=0

Enjoy your Mac OS!!!
