Synaesthesia Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I think all of that hardware is compatible with Mac OS X They 2600xt is working 100%, but some people have had some trouble with it...The p35 based board just needs a sata dvd player, and the mode set to "achi" in bios. Otherwise, I think you're all set! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/68974-help-to-build-my-homebrew-mac/#findComment-490540 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synaesthesia Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 JMicron...mmm...I Don't know...for more information, I recommend looking around on the forum for topics about that, and P35 motherboards in general With the "flat image" method, you don't need to install Tiger, you can do it from windows. It's on demonoid. (torrent site) In fact, I think there's another method as well, that doesn't need windows...not sure Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/68974-help-to-build-my-homebrew-mac/#findComment-490701 Share on other sites More sharing options...
