Hi,

 

I got a Zotac GeForce 9300 ITX and wonderend that it works so well with Leopard and Mavericks.

So I wrote a very, very long thread about it, each post has nearly 10.000 chars ;)

But if it may appear as an effort to read it, it's interesting, then it contains a lot of stuff:

 

- reworking an Intel Xeon E5450 to Socket 775: Quad-Core CPU for less than 35 Euro!

- building a Mini-ITX system

- Instructions and tips for harddrive partitioning

- Installation of Win 7 and localized Win XP in one partition

- Installation of Linux and Android-x86 in one partition

- creating an USB stick for two OS X systems and two install systems

- Installing of Leopard (classic method) and Mavericks (new method)

- fixing boot1 error caused by harddrives with 4k sectors

- adding everything into the bootloaders

- file-sharing across partitions or operating systems to save space

 

So you can imagine, that I'm too lazy to translate everything again. Here's the original text in German and the automated English translation.

 

But here are the two commands you'll need in step 4.2.2, to solve the boot1 error and making the partition active.

 

dd if=/usr/standalone/i386/boot1h of=/dev/disk0s1

fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0

 

So it's possible to copy the lines into the terminal, the Google translator adds some spaces after a slash. For more read the posts.

 

Have fun!

 

Greets, naquaada.
