Denicio Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Hello people, I recentrly discovered some article describing how to strip down MacOS-X 10.4.7 to fit into a 2GB Flash Drive, and boot it from this Flash Drive. What the article doesn't describe is that, if I'm using JaS MacOS-X Installation disc, I cannot install the extra "Intel" Combo Update + SSE3 package after the Core Files have been installed on the 2GB Flash Drive. Steps I take for installation: Install on Flash Drive using Pacifist 2.01 the following: 1) Base Files, about 400MB. 2) Essentials, about 760MB. 3) Intel 10.4.7 Combo Update, about 780MB (that's where I'm stuck, because I cannot install this update over the Base Files). Please need some help, all the guides I've found are using "Vanilla" MacOS-X Installation DVDs. Thank you in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oracle67 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 It is a complete installation of 10.4.8 on a usb drive(memory stick). I didnt follow any guide for that. I just unpluged all my drives and i left stick only on the usb. I did the installation us normal. I did the upgrade to 10.4.9 and it worked. Finaly it takes lill mor time to boot, but it works perfect. (it didnt worked on nForce chipset mb that i test also) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denicio Posted May 13, 2007 Author Share Posted May 13, 2007 Ok thanks for your input, but still my question remains to fit it on a 2GB Flash Drive, I don't have a 4GB or 8GB Flash. If someone has used Pacifist 2.01 to do that please give me a feedback! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oracle67 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Complete and minimal installation is about 1,9 Gig so it feet in a 2 Gig flash. If you want to upgrade after that you have to delete a lot "unessasery" parts of the all installation. (chess, ical, image capture, mail, sherlock, stikies, watever it doesent destroy the system) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
