cringemaster Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 While browsing around OiNK today, this popped up under the apple softwares listing: (Yeah, I know its changed to gray, pink starts to slowly blind you of anything not colored pink after a few weeks ) From some of the info i checked out on Apple Life (the russian forum in the pic, available translated here: Link) It appears to be a heavily modified installation, with the Finder removed and replaced by Xfolders. there are also numerous disk and file utilities included, along with "The installation packages Mac OS X on the hard drives". Looks and sounds interesting, as soon as Azureus finishes with it i'll try to boot it up and see how it works. Disscus it here in the developers thread (Dont ask for an OiNK invite) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/45856-mac-os-x86-kismus-live-dvd-spotted/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
REVENGE Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Already on Demonoid, no need for OiNK. Actually, I already see how this thing could be improved... I think it may be time for me to restart deving Live DVD.

Embio Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 whats going to stop it booting on a real Mac? they can emulate BIOS so it should boot Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/45856-mac-os-x86-kismus-live-dvd-spotted/#findComment-329165 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zizou Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 wel you know, the kernel and all got hacked, chips are different, I'm not to sure it'll boot. I mean I've tried to boot a macbook with an OS X x86 DVD, that didn't work, so why should a live dvd boot all of a sudden? just my 2 cents..

eggie Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 it works for me. looks like modified version of the osx you see in the installation process just that it has xfolders and some extra utilities there is a support forum but its in Russian there have been some other osx live dvd's floating on demonoid but i dont think they are for hackintoshes Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/45856-mac-os-x86-kismus-live-dvd-spotted/#findComment-329826 Share on other sites More sharing options...
