Giso Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Hi Guys! Last day i accepted the offer of Parallels to become a betatester for the new version of Parallels for Windows, parallels desktop 4 beta. it worked very well with win and linux and then when i saw there was support for Free BSD too i thought i could try out some hacked OsXs.... I chose the typical install , then FreeBSD and Other BSD option but while iDeneb 1.4 didn't boot even, i tried with iPC OsX86 for Intel. With great surprise the Darwin booted... so i pressed on f8 then i wrote cpu=1 -v and..... it loaded!!! now i am installing it.. i only chose the preselected settings.. now i am 7 minutes missing from the end of the installation... but well it is good news, isn't it?? i hope the osx will boot too... but anyway i am a total newbie so i hope someone else with more experience than me will try it out !!!

Giso Posted June 14, 2009 Author Share Posted June 14, 2009 it's sad that no one replied to this post, pehpas no one with more experience than me did some trials on this interesting program... anyway let's start saying that unfortunately the other time my leopard installation went well but it never booted... my next trial will be to convert the Leo4VMWare image and try if it boots on parallels 4 since it is much faster than vm ware.... who knows... let's hope well... anyway let's say it again... if anyone who is not a newbie like i unfortunalely am, would try this out, perhaps we could get some results more easily....

Giso Posted June 15, 2009 Author Share Posted June 15, 2009 Unfortunately i had bad luck another time ... the convertion tool of parallels converts the vm ware image but suddenly it advise that it cannot find any operating system on it... so it didn't boot ...
