Hey,

 

I got an Leapord upgrade disc with my iMac, and I want to try out Leapord on my Compaq laptop - pretty much just to see if it will work or not.

 

I am using the "BrazilMac-9a581-Patch" downloading from a torrent site. I have copied my Leapord cd into a toast file then converted it into a dmg and have named it "osx-leopard105.dmg" and it is sitting on my Desktop.

 

When I run the patch, i get the following output:

And so on. It jsut says "No such file or directory" for almost every file. Is this because the Upgrade ile structure id different and i need to get my hands on a Retail DVD, or is there something I am doing incorrectly.

 

Thanks,

Chris.

OK. First things first. It's LEO-PARD not LEAP-ORD :hysterical:

Did you look to see if under /Volumes you have 'osx86dvd' mounted? (use 'ls -l /Volumes')

 

If you look at your script output you will see that it's complaining about incorrect usage of diskutil's rename command. I would try again with a new image, and please - dont use TOAST images. Put the DVD in the drive and run Disk Utility. Next click on the disk in the left hand pane, then select 'New Image' from the Toolbar. Leave all the settings as they are, but save it as 'osx-leopard105.dmg'. Try the script again.

 

As for whether the upgrade DVD is different, I don't know. I wouldn't have thought so, this isn't windows land (even with Windows 95 there were probably about 6 different versions around... some things don't change).
