Ethan R Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 HiI'm just getting started on trying to get Mac OS on my PC laptop. I have original OS X discs that I purchased for the last three pre-Leopard OS's (10.2-10.4). Basically, how do I get started? I'm not interested in downloading 10.5 somehow, I just want to run what I've got.ThanksP.S. Apologies if this is in the wrong forumP.S.

hecker Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Fixing the originals to run on a PC is no easy task so do yourself a favor and download the images and be happy. hecker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackCH Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 If you still want to try: http://forum.osx86scene.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=1661 a guide I wrote some time ago. Make shure your disks are NOT for PPC (G4/G5).... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigPimpin Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 The information you're looking for is available on the net. Just not here. The task is beyond the ability of the scriptkiddies to figure out. Actually I think I did see a DIY here somewhere about how to do it, or at least a general overview. You'll have to search for it because I don't remember where it was or who wrote it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 There is no way a retail disk before Leopard could work on PCs because there is no Universal DVD before Leopard. So if you want to do it with a Leopard DVD: Retail DVD Guide, 10.5.2, 100% working, PC-EFIv8, EFI strings, Vanilla... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
