I have a little question which i am searching an aswer for:

 

Is it possible to plug in your HDD on a Mac or Macbook and install Snow Leopard and then just plug it into your PC and boot from it with a bootloader?

 

Very curious about the possibilities here...

if youre talking about turning your HDD into a bootable device then yes, but if you mean installing it then trying to run it on your pc then probably not. You would probably hit a kernel panic.

 

I mean the last one. So there's no way to do this without a kernel panic? Also, why don't we always get a kernel panic when we just install Snow Leopard from the DVD on the PC HDD via a bootloader? Is it the bootloader that adds files to the install to substitute the kernel panic?
