Many of you have heard of this already, but I feel that I need to share this small, super-easy guide for booting Mac OS X (no emulation/vmware) on your pc.
Step one : Find out if your processor has at least SSE2. (Find out with CPU-Z)
Step two : Make sure you have-One USB Mouse, One USB Keyboard, a valid OS X 10.4.6 license, AND a hard drive that you are willing to format during the installation.
Step three : Do a torrent search on btjunkie or thepiratebay for JAS Mac DVD. This is a patched version of the standard Mac OS X 10.4.6 dvd that will boot Darwin then start a cracked Mac installer. ( Only download if you own a license of Mac OS X 10.4.6 legally.
)
Step four : Burn the .iso to a blank single layer DVD with the free trial of Alcohol 120% or your favorite .iso burning client.
Step five : After burning turn off you computer and plug in a hard drive as a master (IDE works better than SATA most of the time) that you are willing to format.
Step six : Boot up your computer, enter setup or boot options and set the primary boot device to your DVD drive. (If on boot options just select your DVD drive and press enter)
Step seven : Your computer should restart and boot into Darwin/x86. After Darwin loads all you should have to do is press enter to select where to boot from.
Step eight : Most of you have stopped reading after step three, but here are some extra tips while using the Mac/Jas installer -
1. If you cannot install to your hard drive go to Utilities-Disk Utility-then format a partition (Mac OS Journaled) to install Mac on.
2. If installing with an AMD 64 or AMD 64x2 system, do not select any "extra" features included with the installer. (This includes iLife, extra languages, ect) This improves stability with the AMD systems.
3. Make sure....REALLY sure...that you have a USB keyboard and NO PS/2 devices installed. If you press a button with a PS/2 keyboard (and possibly mouse) during the install the installer may freeze and cause you to sit through another 10 minutes of boot screens to install again.
Well, that's about it. If you have any questions this is the place to put 'em!
