After installation it was changed back to AHCI. In my Dell 1330 i had to disable flash cache and set SATA setting as ATA instead of AHCI during installation. Pop the CD and start the installation.įirst attempt failed miserably. Installation : Change the bios setting so that the first boot drive is your DVD rom. NTFS is mounted in Leopard as readonly.Ģ. Format it as fat 32 if you want to write on it from Leopard. Out of unallocated space create a primary (not logical, this is important) partition of minimum 10gb and format it as Fat32. Right click My Computer > Manage > Disk Management i kept 25 gb (320gb) for XP during installation of XP and kept rest as unallocated. easist one is : Win+Pause break > Hardware Device manager.ġ. Check the HCL! no not that idiotic company, its the Hardware compatability List at the following.Ģ. (Didn't I tell you, you may loose data)ġ. and yeah! did i mentioned.a sizeable amount of brain dedicated to fiddling PC, OS and disk partiton.
A Bakra! i mean a PC or Lappy, don't blame me if you loose any data or you convert your PC/lappy into an ideal candidate as a parts doner in our Classified Section.ĥ. (Forget it! will not tell you from where)ģ.
EFI patched OSX leopard iso (there are many), downloaded from obvious places on the great WWW. It was bought as a field lappy for boys, but they felt it looked very expensive and fragile, so nobody dare used it, so it has been lying there for 4 months.ġ. If you like it i encourage you to buy it, as it works best on what it was build for Mac.Ībout this 1330: This expensive lappy was acquired from a fellow member (Gopi) from Bangalore, oops Bengaulru at a really good price. Still I must say Leopard is a great OS and what a fine job Apple has done. Legality of doing this is still disputed and questionable world over.
So this (long) weekend, i decided to try turning one stray Dell Xps 1330 in our place into a Hackintosh. Well there was much debate recently in our forum, Mac are better than PC, Mac are bad than PC, Mac are expensive, et all.
