Advent P4 SSE2 Laptop - Successful dual boot after XP

[BonzoGuinness]

Installed using the deadmoo image on a Pentium 4 3.06Ghz laptop (SSE2) w/512mb ram and a Geforce FX5300. No QE/CI support, as expected. AC97 sound, RTL8139 ethernet working great. Prism mini PCI wireless and Belkin F5D6020 PCMCIA wireless not even "seen". Supports up to 1280x1024x32, or the LCD's native 1400x1050 at 16-bit resolution. 32 bit fails, havn't tried 24 yet.

 

Created the HFS+ partition on blank space using partition magic and diskpart on windows, then just dd'ed the image across. Using "c:\chain0="Mac OS X x86" to boot from the Windows bootloader.

 

Rosetta patch 0.5 appears to be working fine, can load almost every PPC app I've tried including Mac Messenger, Office. Neooffice (Openoffice for mac) installs but wont load, Quicktime etc work but upgrading Quicktime will ruin the system completely (as I found out to my expense ).

 

 

OS is reasonably snappy, everything works relatively fast but I cannot for the life of me get it to browse my Windows PC. It will access shares on my other windows laptops OK, but trying to access the XP Pro desktop gives the classic alias error .
