urbanmac Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 I've been reading threads on here for a couple of weeks and for a few hours today and the more I read the more confused I get. I have installed succcessfully using the guide on http://www.osx86.theplaceforitall.com/howto/ - My installation used tiger-x86.tar.bz2 file as in the instructions and it worked perfectly - I assume this is a Native install? So I can run 10.4.1 on my Intel box. The bit I dont get is all the patches, the 10.4.3 upgrades etc. I have just grabbed macosx_10.4.3_8f1111_for_dtk_userdvd.dmg image - so in simple as pie English can someone give me some instructions on what I do next! I assume this image will not run as it needs to converted to an ISO, then patched, then I burn the ISO to DVD and boot from it it on my Intel box. Is that correct?? The guy who wrote http://www.osx86.theplaceforitall.com/howto/ mad e it so simple now its jsut getting confusing!

benArrayx Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 (edited) Thanks scousi, followed your instructions to get a working copy of OS X in VMWare 2 things to add to your instructions - steps 5 and 6 - initially I mounted the ISO directly in VMWare which caused a 'panic' - solved by mounting the drive in DaemonTools and then pointing VMWare at the mounted drive. Step 9 - I didn't really understand this - there didn't seem to be an option to specify a kernel - I had the options of pressing enter to install normally, with -v for verbose install or -? for help. Choosing -v worked for me Cheers, Ben Edited December 22, 2005 by benArrayx Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/4896-confusion-reigns/#findComment-38032 Share on other sites More sharing options...
