j_michael_pinc Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I'm pretty new to the realm of OSx86 and I'm looking forward to putting together my first machine. Perhaps it's a foolish question, and if so please forgive a n00b but here's what I was wondering... Say I have an external firewire hard drive. Now, though I haven't tried it with Leopard, I know that with Tiger I could use my system disk to install Tiger to that external drive, put it into another machine and it would boot quite happily. What I'm wondering is if it is possible to do something like that with Leopard, manually (via terminal or using Onyx to make invisible directories visible) install the required kernels and kexts and then put this hard drive into a Hackintosh and boot from it, after performing some jiggery-pokery with the various permissions? That's the question. Sorry if it's been brought up before; I tried doing a keyword search to see if it was an existing topic but I didn't find anything that was very obvious. Since I'm still assembling my components, when the time comes I'm more than willing to play guinea pig. I look forward to hearing what people have to say.
