blackcr0w52 Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I hope this doesn't sound too confusing. I have 2 computers, 1 is my desktop which is an AMD and I am currently trying to install zephyroths amd 10.5.2 on, the other is a HP laptop with a core 2 duo. Would it be possible to partition a usb harddrive in half and install zephyroths version on one half for the AMD pc and install the Intel version of osx86 on the other half? That way I can unplug it from one pc and into another and have both run osx86? let me know if you think this is possible and maybe how to do it.

blackcr0w52 Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 Nobody has thought of this yet? or is it even possible?

Skyper Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 It doesent need to be installed 2 different versions of Leo. Once installed on one platform its easy to boot from another.

blackcr0w52 Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 I figured that since one was AMD and the other was intel that it would make a difference.

DoiX Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 its not recommended to install 2 os on the same hd because you could and most certainly will {censored} UP both installs it doesn't matter if its AMD or god knows what else...

Skyper Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 The installer DVD is all it matters when it comes to installing on AMD or Intel. When booting , you are booting one and the same thing but two different platforms ( AMD AND INTEL ). So if you install it on the AMD machine and take the HD out and plug it into the Intel machine it will still boot.
