Welcome to the Genius Bar. Here's how this forum works:

1. Members are encouraged to make a guide that details something that they might have found troubling or challenging.
Chances are, if you've seen the same question asked over and over again, you should write a guide for it.

2. This is not the forum for asking questions. If you have a question about a thread that's already here, feel free to ask it.
Just don't start a thread for a specific question. Use the other forums here for that.

3. Posting links to off-site tutorials is not allowed.

4. That's it! Thanks for sharing your information with the rest of us. :)

To keep this forum clean this forum is moderated. You can post in existing topics but new ones will have to be approved before they show up.

For this guide you'll need:
- Lastest JAS OS X (I've used 10.4.8 Intel/AMD SSE2/3 with some ppf's)
- Mac OS X Server 10.4.7
- An internet connection or apple's 10.4.8 server updater downloaded.
- A little time.

Steps to follow:
- Install JAS OS X as you usually do..
- If you need network drivers, install 'em now.
- open server DISK/ISO/DMG and go to ./System/Installation/Packages.
- Install this packages one by one:
*ApplicationsServer.pkg
*QuickTimeStreamingServer.pkg
*ServerAdministrationSoftware.mpkg
*ServerAdminTools.pkg
*ServerEssentials.pkg
*ServerSetup.pkg
- Install the 10.4.8 server Update either via software update or via a downloaded package *DO NOT REBOOT*.
- open JAS OS X DISK/ISO/DMG and go to ./System/Installation/Packages.
- Reinstall the hacked kernel package for your plattform (intel/amd).
- Reboot and configure your server. (you'll need a serial for this, if you can, you should filter TCP port 626).
- Use prasys script to update to the lastest kernel, also you should install any drivers remaining.
- Enjoy!

Hi what update do you use for this method? Instead of using 10.4.7 i used the JaS 10.4.8 installer and then installed the Server stuff. Now when i try to run the 10.4.9 Server Updater it says the drive doesn't meet requirements for the installer to install too. Just wonder how to resolve that.
