ive got it and booted - only see the apple mac os x loading screen and rolling circle - waited 20minutes and nothing. booted under vmware.

I did exactly what is in the "Launching Mac OS X Tiger x86 in VMware Guide" by vertigo173. I boot it up and see the counting - 10, 9, 8 ... seconds to boot. Then I see gray screen with Apple in center, and then the same but with this circle - loading symbol which is rolling... I see the HD icon in the right corner blinking for few seconds, but later it stops doing it. I see the same screen - like the Mac OS X is loading... But is it loading for 5, 10, 15, 20 minutes? What is wrong? Help me!

hey! i still need help and no replies!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure this is only a forum for dual booting Windows on Mac hardware.

Or perhaps no one else has done what the OP has done so they haven't a clue how to help?

I got it to boot fine in VMware but you still need to make sure your harware is compatible mainly do you have a SSE2 motherboard or SSE 3 ?

hmm - i dont know ^^ never checked it
ive got a bit ^^ old stuff, but i will upgrade it soon:
-Athlon XP 2000+ @ 1.95GHz
-MB Matsonic MS8147C+
-786MB DRAM
-GeForce FX 5200 128MB VRAM (o'clocked core speed and mem speed)
-80+20GB HDDs

More than likely your hardware has some incompatibility. I have seen that screen quit ea few times now in my desktop, AMD64 3000+ , NF4 Platinum and a whoel bunch of other hardware. My take, use a intel system.

AthlonXP has no SSE2 so OSX86 don' t run in VMware. It runs unaccelerated (no kqemu) in qemu on your PC:

oh :S
but thanks for help

ive set up qemu but now i get kdp_poll: no debugger device.
how to fix it?

I just got it to work, (btw i have vmware 5 & i used tiger 10.4.1) i just wanted to say that it is very slow....i even tried the speed boost guide but still its slow...
