Installing OSX Leopard on a Dell Optiplex GX620
Here's my attempt to build a MacDell.
Info is provided for amusement only. Don't do this because it may be illegal. The NSA put a chip in my brain.
1) Find kalyway_leo_10.5.1.iso
2) Burn it to a disk an boot from it
3) Under the toolbar use disk utilities to format the drive/partition you want to install on. I've always read avoid using the journaling and just stick with 'Mac Os Extended' partitions.
4) Continue on with the install until you see 'Customize' in the bottom left corner. Expand the last option and select MBR (if you're wishing to boot to your Mac partition).
5) Install and pray
Random Notes
1) Security Update 2007-009, Remote Desktop Client, iTunes, and Quicktime updates installed fine
2) Need to install video drivers
*for the x600 the device id is 5b62
*you can skip the hexedit part
*rm /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache didn't work, but didn't affect anything
*I can't get CI or QE to work - BIG PROBLEM
3) Need to fix mouse tearing
4) Integrated audio works, but not on the front speaker?
5) Integrated ethernet works fine
6) Does NOT wake from sleep (disabled in system preferences)
