is there a guide to do this somewhere? I seem to have found a bunch of guides for installing leopard, but I want tiger because it'll fit on the super fast 4 gig drive.
this is sad considering you can install and run leopard on most pcs with intel processors in just one step. and if you want tiger you can run it on PearPC and just make it full screen.
I am thinking of doing this for an Eee PC. Should I use Tiger or Leopard? As I already have the Leopard disks it would save some time.. or does it have to be OSx86 (or whatever from the web)?
i got leopard working decent on my 4 gb SURF with 1 gb RAM and it wasent so bad exept the SSD was full i had used like 6 + SD cards for applications music video etc but it wasent so bad BUT! Tiger is just da BOMB! on the Eee
if i do this on my 4gb will i still be able to use the disks restore utility if i want to put it back to normal? because i dont want to get stuck with it for ever
It isn't illegal. The DMCA doesn't say anything against running an OS on a "unsupported" hardware. It does however state in their EULA that your are prohibited to run Mac Os X on a "non-apple-branded computer". Just slap on a apple sticker that comes with an iPod and your "legal" =)
Other than hardware mods can you still use the internet?
Luckily yes.. the red Mac Dashboard Version 2.06 cd that came with the USB Huaiwei E220...install that..it works..so far so good..can use the huawei usb modem...the Mac Dashboard CD made the USB huawei modem work nicely by createing a virtual disk with all the drivers and watcher app
b) use the paperclip method to create a VGA bridge because OS X on the GMA900 chipset defaults to output on the VGA port causing the LCD to stay blue (and setup as a second display.) By bridging it, you disable the VGA port and the LCD is setup as the main display.
i smashed mine 2 years ago then got a mac -_-

get rid of the dashboard by: Typing in Terminal
defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean YES
And then: killall Dock
don't worry the Dock will restart
but if you want it back
defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean NO
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BREAKING YOUR EEE TRY THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!

oh and after putting: defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean NO
to get it back do the killall Dock command.

The sound is the Camera's out of Focus clicker, just to tell you it's out of Focus. Pretty pointless really.

@vrzone24hrs
thanks for that. I've been wondering why the guide(s) tell you to bridge the port. Now I know!
