For some odd reason when ever I finish installing my CMD prompt says "reset" and then I try to run ppc ppccfg.osx and it will not boot the HDD incase you need to know I used the EMACULATION pre-formatted HDD but I am not sure what is wrong; could someone create a post with a full guide and links to the newest versions of everything and the patched including the fullscreen patched as well as a very good config file?

Thanks,

SDM :woot: :shifty:

is anyone using os x with their .img file formated as journaled?

[Bluetooth]

uuuhh I am, I had the preformatted and it worked just fine... dont know what your problem is

[xSDMx]

I'm to lazy to read over 1000 posts as I have been stalking this thread for a while but haven't read the whole thing.... :yes:

Bluetooth: Maybe it is my config files as I borrowed it from another user and edited it to my using.

i don't have a problem, i just thought i remembered reading early on that there was a problem with using journaled. and i am reinstalling, so i wanted to know if there was. since there doesn't seem to be, i'll use that.

i justed edited the supplyed one to my liking, got sick of the gui's not working right for me(even tho i give them credit for there work)

I wish I could get networking :( But ever since I installed OpenVPN and I try to go to Properties of my LAN connection, explorer.exe crashes :(

Is your guys' installation useable? Mine takes like 30 seconds for anything to come up, too slow for usability.

I am in the process of writing my guid now. Should be done with in a week. I dont have much spare time hehe.

I got 10.3.4 installing right now.

[Adster01]

Well, the networking build from that richards site didn't work for me, I had to grab the other one and now it works sweet. I can only imagine where this app will go int he future :|

I'm also gagging for 1600 x 1200 full screen usage :o

Which version are you using Dazzla? Could you post a link? I'm using SP1.

[TheReaperMan]

mine runs quite fast, some stuff in osx takes about 2 mins max tho to load etc, speed is quite good considering its only been out a short time

[TheReaperMan]

new pic, full screen, Konfabultor running, live updates from the net(weather showing my local info) still waiting for that osx update to finish downloading :D

[pogz]

Hehe, I'm writing this reply in Safari...

[xSDMx]

Is there anyway someone could write an as today up to date install guide for all the goodies and the basics for PearPC?

Thanks..:)

[pogz]

[xSDMx]

did you try manual ip in pearpc(osx), and do you have more than one network card in your pc??

[amdme2600]

Is all this worth it? Whats the point just buy a mac.

[bolerodan]

yeah i tried manual, i did exactly as what that tutorial says... in network connections in winXP i have my connection which is shared and the tap-win32 connection.... the tap win32 connection has its ip as 192.168.0.1

when i follow the tutorial says to put it to manual (since dhcp seems to not work) i put my ip in mac os x as 192.168.0.1 but it says it is already in use
