[KlyX]

My machine was stuck installing OS X Server for 14 hours so I just stopped the installation and shut the whole thing down. I'll try installing regular Panther tonight.

Ataxy: I got the same thing. It is because your installed OS X is not bootable. You have to make it bootable, but i can't figure out how... :cry:

[kwyjibo]

Did you get the error message:

IRQL_OS_NOT_BOUGHT_OR_STOLEN?

Hilarious. :D

[kwyjibo]

Pilsbury: I love your sense of humor, but u're off topic.

You cannot deny the massive amounts of piracy occuring in this thread. OS X is NOT freeware and let's face it. If you:

a) download it from bittorrent, that is not legal

b) borrow it from a friend, that is not legal

Having read this thread, the majority of people interested and actually commenting DO NOT OWN A MAC, so they obviously are STEALING the OS.

[kwyjibo]

ehm... I'm wondering how this OS X was made... I have an orignial from my friend...

And i hope, It will work.

That is illegal. Do not discuss piracy, such as borrowing a copy of Windows XP or Mac OS X from a friend or you will have to be reported to the proper authorities.

[kwyjibo]

if you'd bought it, you wouldn't have to worry about it, warez boy

:angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

This thread's piracy level is off the chart.

[Schmoove]

What a bunch of choirboys in here.... get over yourself and just let people play with it.... jesus...

Even if they get it working they can't do sh*t with it, so I don't see the problem here.

[kwyjibo]

I will get my hands on the panther disc's, and then try to install that :)

We do not wish to hear about your piracy. Downloading or borrowing OS X is just as illegal as doing so to Windows XP. DO NOT DISCUSS THAT HERE.

[kwyjibo]

After you install panther, can you boot it again? How u boot it?

Still waiting for my panther CD. :unsure:

Don't you mean CD's? There are three, pirateboy.

[kwyjibo]

God damn people, get back on topic and stop the petty bickering.

I'm headed over to my friend's house to steal his OS 10.3 CD's for a few hours. Hopefully I can make it as far as the installer like other people have. =)

While I appreciate all the help you have given, including your PearPC configuration file, please do not discuss piracy. :(

Don't you mean CD's? There are three, pirateboy.

take a chill pill dude

[kwyjibo]

Conspiracy theory du jour:

I could have sworn last night the Darwin download came as an ISO file -- it appears to be an .iso.gz file now.

Did Apple get wise to this and pull a switcheroo on the ISO file available for download?

-A-

.gz is a compression format. There is no conspiracy. Just decompress it. :huh:

[kwyjibo]

i'll bet 80% of you people using pearpc are using illegal copies of osx too...

Bingo.

[ataxy]

Don't you mean CD's? There are three, pirateboy.

ok please back to topic i dont think that was the idea of the thread to discuss piracy ,but i would encourage you to start a thread centered around the your wrong i am right ,your wrong i am right ,your wrong i am right ,your wrong i am right your wrong i am right ,your wrong i am right ,your wrong i am right ,your wrong i am right etc,etc,etc..........

[kwyjibo]

would you expect them to buy a retail copy?

No. I would expect them not to break the law.

[KlyX]

Ehem... I'd better deactivate the other software too... This thing is now installing the programs imovie, iphoto... so i think, you cannot work with this apps, so why I'm installing them? :unsure: ;)

in your case 10 out of 14 post on one page i would call that "For clarity we show zero tolerance for spam, advertising, useless and off topic posts, raising post count"

[kwyjibo]

Uhm. Maybe take your anti-depressants?

I have no interest in post counts. How god damned childish. Honestly. IT'S AN INTERNET FORUM. I came here, read 15 pages of comments, and replied to the ones that impacted me.

[ataxy]

its just that i think your message got true so lets just go back on track with the basic subject of the thread

[configure Veteran]

Allow me to clear something up here. We couldn't careless as to whether you have a pirated or a legit copy of OSX CDs. We will start caring when you start sharing *how* you get one. Now listen carefully, when I said "how" I meant, people posting links, clues, or whatever in that fashion.

The "hey, I got a copy from a friend!" comment is fine in my book as long as it stops there.

This thread's piracy level is off the chart.

I will now go through every post in this thread - If I miss anything, let me know.
