asap18 Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 I managed to get my hackintosh running Server 10.4.7 with everything working. Including the server admin app, mysql, and everything else that it comes with. It sure is beautiful. Here is what I did: Install Jas 10.4.6 Updated using Jas 10.4.7 update Intel Install MacOSXServerInstall.pkg under other installs on the server dvd u can find at the demons. Booted up asked for a serial (use serial box) and voila a fully working server Ive used Ubuntu server, fedora, and windows, but Mac server beats them all hand down. Here are some pics. Some are distorted due to my x300 artifacts. And i cant include the server admin menu since it has my full name...Apple Legal Department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asap18 Posted October 27, 2006 Author Share Posted October 27, 2006 you need to convert the dmg of the server dvd to read write in disk utility. then open the new dmg and click show package contents on MacOSXServerInstall.mpkg . find the resources folder within it and drag volumecheck to the trash.

Stellair Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 I figured it out and I have a fully working Mac server now. YESSSS Installed JaS 10.4.7 DVD Reboot Installed update JaS 10.4.8 SSE3 Reboot Opened MacServerOSX.dmg and double clicked MacOSXServerInstall.mpkg Reboot Full Mac OSX Server 10.4.7 Got to try the update 10.4.8 for Mac Server now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asap18 Posted October 27, 2006 Author Share Posted October 27, 2006 cool, but there really is no need to update to 10.4.8, os x server is pissing me off because my mail was working and now its not, plus its using too many resources. so i guess its back to the land of ubuntu server and command prompt for me.
