Easiest Way to Install Leopard on Your PC

leopard Installing Leopard on your PC is now just a one step process. Thanks to those skilled pirates, who released Leopard DVD with built-in PC-EFI. EFI emulation allows users to enjoy OS X on normal PCs, with patched kernels/kernel modules which just bypass EFI.

How to install Leopard in a single step:

  • Grab the modified Leopard ISO from Mininova. (I won’t link to the actual torrent, but I’ll just give you a hint. Go to Mininova and search for "iATKOS v1.0i". It weighs around 2.09 GB, and you shouldn’t have any problems finding it.)
  • Burn the ISO to a DVD using some burning software.
  • Pop the disc into your DVD tray and boot into it. Follow the onscreen instructions to install Leopard.
  • It takes around an hour to install, so you might consider watching TV or grabbing a cup of coffee in the mean time.

As simple as it can get! Cool huh?

    Have you personally tried this one Thilak?? Coz it seems really odd because the size seems very small. The last time BrazilMac patched it to a smaller size, it was still just fitting on a single DVD and few things had to be removed to do it… Whats not there on this one??

    And drivers have always been a problem for PCs that have a lot more varied hardware than the Mac

    Is it worth installing? I heard, it has lot of issues in the installation.

    Is it worth trying it. I am new to Mac, and just wanted to test it.

    Well there must be security issues with this also, i think?

    Saptarshi: Nope, I haven’t tried it out myself. But one of my friend just tried it today, and it worked. I’m not really sure, if its worth the install (especially, if you don’t have a backup PC to work with)

    I just wish it had support for AMD processors, I guess I’ll just have to wait a bit until that gets support.

    Well, I tried to install this on one of my PCs, and it just got “stuck” on this screen when I tried.

    I left it on overnight! If anyone knows what I’ve done wrong, I’d be VERY grateful. For the recored, this is the first thing that comes up. It asks you before if you want to install Mac OS X, you press Enter to agree. Then it goes to this screen, and in my case, fails to do anything else.

    I Installed Leopard 10.5.1 on motherboard Asus P5GC with Celeron Duel core E1200 Processor. Built in VGA, Sound & LAN Work fine. I Installed Final cut pro 5.1. It works better than Macintosh G5 (Renders fast without any RT edit card).
    Only Problem, dose not boot without Installer DVD in Drive.

    I got it working.

    After you download the image of iATKOS read the installation instructions. There are couple of display adapters which are not supported out of the box, because of which the system goes into a hang.

    I have tried it on Dell Optiplex GX520 it works good. But the network card is not detected.

    Need to find out on that peace.
