Hi (newbie here),

I posted a question yesterday about whether or not to try one of the more recent distros that are out rather than fighting with my initial choice (Uphuck 10.4.9,1.4i R3) on an older laptop (Pentium M,1.5GHz). Post was in the "New Releases and Updates" section, was titled "Should I switch distros?" and was gone within an hour or two.

I skimmed through as many of the forum rules as I could and read through the forum descriptions beforehand. I figured that was the proper place for the question.

Sincere apologies if that wasn't where it belonged, but not having any mention of why it was deleted makes me wonder if it's even worth trying to repost it.

-Thanks!

The new releases and updates section is for the people who actually develop these distros to let everyone else know that a new version of their distro is available to the public. You should try and repost it in one of the other OSx86 subforums.

Will do, and thanks both of you. Wish I had saved the post's text now. sad.gif

Take Care

--- shame there's not an "undecided" section in between the 10.4/10.5 install sections

You dont need to post in one of the sub forums just post directly in osx86 installation if it is a general question about osx86 installation.

I've PM'd you with the old topic so you don't have to re-write it all again.

Much thanks for that! I've been pretty busy today.

Running With Scissors- It appears I don't have permission to post in the main part of the install forum. Do I go with the 10.4 section?

Must be different than the post installation forum in that case I would post it in 10.5 as people should be able to help you regarding installing leopard on your laptop.

Generally speaking though if your hardware works on Tiger it should on Leopard with the exception of QE/CI on a GMA900.

Good Luck
