Mac OS X under AMD Thunderbird


7 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

Have tried it under an AMD Thunderbird (2500+) machine.

 

Doesn´t work, after some booting there comes some writings:

 

This hardware configuration is not supported by Darwin/X86.

 

I´ve found that this string is found at

 

Binary file usr/standalone/i386/boot matches

Binary file usr/standalone/i386/cdboot matches

 

That means the first check is made in one (or both) of the files.

 

Greetings

It requires hacking to get anything to load on a non-sse3 processor. It can be done, but it's difficult (I'm still working on it but have made nice progress on an Athlon 64/nForce3 machine -- no vmware!).

 

On that note, though, if your processor doesn't even have SSE2 (let alone SSE at all) then it's most likely not going to ever work. You'll need AT LEAST an sse2 processor and have enough knowhow to hack some files.

they did a good job doing it too they new the first place people would look was at the cdboot and boot file and open it in a text editor so they made it look like it was coming from there so i deleted the whole usr/i386 dir and the non folder files in the main folder and it still booted that i was like wtf that wasnt posed to work

 

 

plus i was disappointed spending all night trying to hybrid it with darwin and it was fake all along
