Thanks Tak... next question... how do I burn a bootable DVD of the Generic Install DVD using Toast 7?

 

Do I use "OS X x86 - The Complete Installation Walkthrough (Run OS X on PC).pdf" as my guide to install the Generic Install DVD or do I look for something else?

It worked!

 

Intel Pentium 4 3.2GHz

ASUS P4C800-E Deluxe

2GB DDR400

40GB Maxtor 7200RPM PATA

52x24x52x16 Samsung Combo drive

inno3D GeForce 6800 GT 256MB

17" LG Flatron L1740GQ LCD

Logitech MX510

Apple Wired Keyboard (which OS X couldnt identify)

 

For those who're confused as I was I'll spell it out in plain English.

 

Get ==> Apple.OS.X.x86.10.4.Generic.Install.DVD <==

 

Unrar it

 

Burn the resulting .ISO to DVD like any other data DVD

 

Reboot and set in your BIOS to boot off your DVD drive

 

Be patient for at least an hour or two

 

There you have it... OS X on your PC.

It worked!

Is that version 10.4.1 or 10.4.3

 

thanks

Is that version 10.4.1 or 10.4.3

 

thanks

10.4.1

 

My video card isnt supported & defaults to VESA 3.0.

 

No audio after the install but I read on the Hardware Compatibility List wiki I'll have to do some Command Line Interface jockeying to get it running.

 

 

My next question is... what is "OSXupdate.tar"? When I decompress the .TAR I get a "OSX Update" folder which contains "osx86-update.pkg" and "README.TXT"

 

THis is what is written inside the README.TXT

 

This package contains updates for your 10.4.1 installation

 

This has only been tested on a SSE3 proc cpu.

 

Highlights:

1. tun/tap driver.

2. x86 Flash Plugin.

3. Updated Safari + Webkit

4. All new Frameworks w/ SIMD optimizations.

5. Quicktime 7.0.4 x86 complete.

6. 10.4.1 Kernel with 10.4.2 exec patch.

7. SDL FAT Frameworks.

8. Growl x86 Frameworks.

 

Run xbench CPU test to confirm it is working properly. You should have a 50-70% better score.
