Best distrobution based on hardware?

[technotyler17]

Firstly, forgive me if this is under the wrong topic.

 

I've been trying to install OS X on my AMD machine for a while now. I've tried two distros(Leo4All and an older Tiger distro; can't remember the name). Leo4All installed succesfully but it freezes at inital start-up, at the: "Transfer files" screen.

 

 

I would like to know if anyone has any suggestions for distrobutions that would work well with my current hardware:

 

Compaq SR5413WM PC

AMD Athlon Dual Core 4850e(Upgraded)

NVDIA GeForce 8600 GTS(Upgraded)

Realtek On-board Audio

3gb Memory(Upgraded)

 

Linksys WUSB100 USB Wifi Adapter

 

I know that it is unlikely to find a driver for my wifi adapter, but other than that, what would you say would be my best choice of a distro?

 

 

Thanks.

Welcome.

 

I don't want offend you, but is like say "I wanna buy a new car, but I'm not sure. I want to go to the work, to the mall, maybe long trips not too often. What can suggest me?"

 

You must search, read and try... anything is easier as we expected, but when you have that you want is really cool!

 

Actually, is hot to try the native last Snow Leopard 10.6 using Chamaleon 2, you can find a lot of guides, use google, it is god!

 

But you can try also leopard from any know distro, I tried Ideneb and iatkos, I prefer the last one.

 

Just try and fix, is the only way, to get the desirable stable condition you want.

 

And as a suggestion, I don't know about your wifi, but if you try and it don't works, you can buy a cheap realtek usb, a lot is based on rtl8187 chipset and are less as $20, and you have a native driver inside the distros mentioned before.

 

Good luck!

Snow Leopard Hackintoshes already? That sounds great, but I think I'll wait a while longer until trying that out. Leopard is good for now I guess.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll look into that if I can't get my current hardware working.

 

 

Thanks for the response.
