How to get Mac OSX10 Lepord as double boot on vista

Kill Bill · 11-30-2007, 02:04 PM

Without using the anti virus create another partion thingy.
Is it possible to install Mac OSX 10 basicly from the disc and it wont overwrite vista?

Example: You have windows 2000 then your installing XP on it. It gives you 2 options.

1.Keep Current OS and install XP
2.Overwrite current OS and install XP.

OMG i didn't know antiviruses can partition hard drives...lolz

Woops, you can't install Tiger or Leopard on a regular PC, it's ILLEGAL and by all means against apple EULA.
But google is your friend and you can also visit INSANELY MAC
buy a real Mac, use bootcamp to dual boot

What do you do if you bought it from the apple?

Tough luck really, Apple state in EULA (if you even read them) that you must only install OS-X on Apple-branded hardware, now what this is can be a bit confusing but it's definately none of the kit you have.

The legality of it is questionable, but I wouldnt let that detour you. There are a lot of communities that will help you get it working, sadly, it will only turn into a war if you try to find answers to that here.

Ya you can do it.

Just type in your question to google and youll find forums which tell you all about hacking and cracking and exploiting programs. theres a lot of those forums.

no the legality is that it is illegal. Just go buy a Mac, it will run OS X better than a PC will with the hacked version.

I am not trying to be bossy far from it. I could care less what you do in your free time with software. I am only saying that to protect the forum from any legal issues supporting or helping support illegal softwares is all.

I had a similar question. Because the schools where i'm interning at now all use Mac's, I want to get my hands on the OS so I can help out more then I can now.

Does anyone know if it's easier/possible at all to set up a virtual machine to use the new Mac OS on top of Vista?
