Snackhat Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Never done this before.. Please guide or link me to a guide, explaining the installation process all the way from the point where I start my ThinkPad with the OS X 10.4.6 DVD. My computer: CPU: Intel Pentium M 1.5 MHz (MMX, SSE, SSE2) Motherboard: IBM 18306FG Memory: 2 x 256 MB DDR (166 MHz) Is there something more i need to know?

Evidence Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Find out what kind of video card it has. I would suspect that it has a GMA 900 or 915 in there. I just finished installing on an R51, using Jas 10.4.8. Cheers - josh P.S. - The only thing I haven't got working is QE / CI on my Intel 915. Oh, and I can't figure out how to update to 10.4.9 Let me know if you have any success with either of those. But, for everything else, I may be able to help you with it.

Snackhat Posted October 5, 2007 Author Share Posted October 5, 2007 I got a ATI MOBILITY RADEON 7500 32.0 Mb.. hope it will work Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/65369-installation-on-a-thinkpad-r50/#findComment-463733 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evidence Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Ok, I'm not sure how to do the ATI Mobility Radeon. However, checking the HCL (http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/HCL_10.4.8#Mobile) There is nothing in there about it. You should be able to do an install using Jas 10.4.8 SSE2 SSE3 installer.
