I have a sgl core AMD Athlon XP 2400+ with 1.5GB of RAM and a 300GB Seegate Hard drive using' Windows XP, I have the JaS 10.4.7 Install DVD and VMWare.

 

When I try to install as an i386 OS I get screen information witin the screen shot. When I try to install via VMWare I get the same error or the following message "System config file '/com.apple.Boot.plist not found".

 

When I try to install via -v mode I get the same as if I was trying to install "native".

 

I spent 3hrs this trying to get this to install, I installed Acronis and partitioned my drive, I used fdisk to partioned the a 2nd drive to use EXCLUSIVELY as my Apple HD but it won't install to find the drive - which makes sense :D.

 

Is it tru that there is NO AMD compatible install DVD and that theyare ALL Intel? Is the x86 DVD a 64bit OS only?

 

I have tried using the VMWare How-To guides I have found but one suggests setting the CPU to dual processor but if you do that when you only have a sgl core the VM will not start - obvioulsy. I have tried setting the VM as both FreeBSD & Other, leaving the Network settings as Bridged and the HD Setting as 8GB - as suggested by the guides - all NO GOOD....!!!!!

 

:whistle: this :D am close to tearin my :censored2: haor out, what the :censored2: am I doin wrong?

All the hacked osx installs need at least sse2-enabled cpus.

Make sure first you have compatible hardware.

 

Consult the wiki.

 

And there are amd compatible install dvd: myzar's, jas' for exemple (are there others? ;))

 

Thank you for your response..., it is as I thought, I will need to upgrade from the ground up :)
