[OSx86] I own an iMac already but would try to get it on an amd

[togerland]

computer is it possible?

You mean you'd like to run OSX on standard PC hardware?

I think there are threads about this :)

[duritz]

yes but it isn't easy. search OS x86 in google. you will find what you are looking for.

Possible but not on your nforce 2

OSX requires SSE2 processor, basically you need much newer hardware

It depends on the processor. If you don't have at least an Athlon 64 processor (you said it was AMD), then it's not even worth trying because the Athlon XP processors don't have sse3, so it's a waste of time. I also don't know how well OSX86 supports Nforce 2 chipsets (if it does at all).

Wouldn't it just be a lot easier to do it on an intel chip?

Sorry to be a wet blanket, but aren't we not allowed to discuss using Mac on PC hardware, as it's technically illegal?

Not if you don't have one.

They changed the rules, you can allow to talk about OSX86 but not how to get it.

Anywho, in the end even with AMD patches etc it's pretty unstable and stuff so really isn't worth the hassle.
