Validatorian Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I have tried various distros on several different computers/laptops, and I haven't gotten this far for any of them, but I'm still having trouble. I got a Presario 2800 to install Leopard on it, but I've hit a road block. My guess is that I didn't use the correct options when installing, but I'm not sure what I should use. Has anyone successfully got Leopard on a Presario 2800? If so, what distro (Kalyway, iPC, etc) did you use, and what options (drivers, fixes) were necessary? I'm not familiar with macs (yet?) though I am generally computer-literate, I'm pretty useless when it comes to hardware.

Validatorian Posted July 1, 2009 Author Share Posted July 1, 2009 I've tried using Kalyway, but the laptop doesn't seem to boot from it like it does with iPC, not sure why.
