MAC: Installing MAC OS X Leopard Part 1 (Setup OS)

Before I bought the MSI Wind, I found several web sites taking about install MAC OS X Leopard on the MSI Wind. I don't use MAC, I work deploying enterprise systems and nobody uses Apple systems on large companies, but sounds like a good challenge.

The exercise was done solely for learning purposes. The install of Leopard on PCs violate the Apple Mac OS X EULA. If you are going to run and use Apple MAC OS X Leopard on your MSI Wind, I recommend to buy a license of Leopard here

There are several ways to install Leopard on Wind. I use WindOSX86 (available on any torrent site around). This version include a hacked build of Leopard 10.5.4.

Because I want to keep the Windows XP intact, I decided to split the hard drive on 4 partitions.

1 - 20 GB for Mac OS X
2 - 20 GB for Windows XP
3 - 20 GB for Windows 7
4 - 90 Gb for Data


Using Acronis Disk Director, I deleted the fist partition (recovery) and resize the Windows XP partition to 20 GB, leaving 20 GB partion for Leopard before the Windows XP.
Optional: Then you can create extra partions on remaining free space.

I use a external DVD to boot and install WindOSX86, there are some people booting from USB drives (google or bing it).

Install Apple Mac OS X on the first partition and don't delete any partition (if you want to keep XP).
