Yesterday, I've installed OSX 10.4.3 on my PC. Though I ran in to some problems, all went fine, really. I followed the instructions on profit42.com. The partition I created with Windows XP's "diskpart" wasn't readable at first, but after some time I found out that, during installation, I was able to use OSX's disk utility to format a partition. I've installed OSX on a secondary hard drive, wich is 16GB. This is fully usable, and after the installation I still have some 10GB free.

 

My onboard network wouldn't work at first (NForce3 networking controller), so I got myself a sub $10-Sweexcard with Realtek chipset, cause I read those work out of the box. And indeed, I'm typing this on Safari :P I did get three extra icons in my dock though - iPhoto, iMovie and iMovie HD, though I haven't installed those at all. Doesn't matter though.

 

I was also able to mod com.apple.Boot.plist nicely to have a 1280x1024 resolution (Geforce 6800LE)

 

Onboard sound also worked out of the box.

 

I have the following two problems though. First of all, iTunes won't run. It comes up with licence agreement, and as soon as I click 'agree' it comes up with an 'unkown error (-50)'. Any solution to that?

Another problem is that I can't access my Windows XP and storage partitions - these are on a 200GB SATA drive. The disk doesn't even show up in OSX's built-in disk utility. Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
