Snow Leopard to Have Radically Simpler Installer

A member on this forum who prefers to remain anonymous has sent me 3 pictures of Mac OS X Snow Leopard's Installer.

 

After choosing a language, this is the screen you see. There are no other options. The anonymous member told me that if you want to clean install, you have to erase the disk via Disk Utility.

The second picture displays the only options that are available for Installation.

The third picture is the screen that you get after installation. The anonymous member told me that everything else is the same in Leopard and Snow Leopard.

So what say you? Real or fake?

But if apple buys nvidia and now with P.A. Semi, drops a new generation of integrated chipsets with new processors, could it be the end of the hackintosh era? I suspect that apple will launch this with Snow Leopard.

 

Nah, remember they make the system compatible with other intel macs, the ones that run intel chipsets. In 5 years we might all be buying nvidia chipsets =/.

What do you mean there are no other options? The picture clearly shows a button labeled "Customize".

 

Surely they are not talking about customizing font color...

I always LOL when I see the title of this thread. What's it doing radically different, going from 5 clicks to 3 clicks? :soldiers: I think they should have integrated Disk Utility into the installation process:

 

1. Boot up & accept license terms

2. Use Disk Utility to format the drive (if necessary) and select the target disk

3. Customize options

4. Install

It looks like that is what Pere was thinking when putting together his system for pendrive. check out the instructions, apart from the bootloader, it's what you suggest:

 

Open disk utility on Osx and select your pendrive, go to partition tab and select one partition, click on options and select GPT as partition scheme, select ok.

Create it.

Go to restore tab, select as source the provided dmg, and select your pendrive as destination, don´t select the "erase" option.

Click on restore, when it´s finished, go to the bootloader provided folder and run Chameleon_v1012.pkg, select the pendrive as destination (This will install PCEFIV9 as bootloader).

;)
