Snow Leopard to Have Radically Simpler Installer

fake, come on, any one can take some pics and leave some out, make a video instead

It would really be nice if you could customize the install more to leave some useless stuff out.

I didnt actually boot from the disk but those were the install choices I had

I'll make a video of the installation if you people are really that interested.

It could just be since it's the developer version they didn't feel it was necessary to include the other parts yet.

Even if it's fake, the idea to simplify installation is excellent. Installing OS X could be done far more rapidly if Apple would rethink this installer, even though it's the best OS installer I've ever seen.

However, the last part of installation(after the intro video) could be left out or moved to the first part, so that after the initial configuration(selecting partitions, additional packages) there would be nothing to set after the restart.

does the disk utility tool still exist in this new installer? even if it doesn't im sure the hackers would think of a way to format our drives to HFS+ Journaled

I still prefer the installer that existed before Leopard.

Its the Retail version! The choices are always simplified! I can confirm, that was the only choices available!

Yes, of course

rotfl.. hha this is a partition label cmon...

what a fake...dude

I would not call it fake until someone proofs that it is. IMHO, it's the real installer, and I can't say I dislike it

If you really think those are fake, then download the beta and see for yourself.

installing is not an issue, booting is my problem...

No EULA = fake

That, or Apple is trying to help us make OSX86 legal.

Wrong bootsector, also, need some patched .kexts too.

There is a torrent of OS 10.6.

I don't know if it is real or not.... Even if I download it, I don't have a real Mac to test it out on. Only have my poor little Hackintosh

Don't know if it is against the TOS of this website to post a link to the torrent... if it is I'm sorry!!

Yes it is. You should remove the link now.

For people interested in: torrents are in the usual places, like the green daemon and the bay of the pirates.

Looks real to me Numberzz. When you first asked me about this pictures I was on my blackberry so it was hard to tell, but looking now they look legit to me. And the missing components probably have something to do with Apple maybe rushing it to completion for developers and only keeping the components that are truly needed.

Dont you people read? a few people have confirmed this to be true.

You can go download the beta yourself if u dont believe it.

NOT Fake!

definitely not fake - did it myself not 20 minutes ago

not sure how well not showing the EULA will go down in some territories (I'm looking at you - Denmark!) but I like the fact Extra Fonts and X11 are the only ticked boxes, I always have to add X11 and remove the other two :)

Ill go with it being a fake until more screenshots.
