I am happy to say that I now have a dual boot 10.4.1 and XP ShuttleX box!
OS X is FAST. It is much more responsive on this box than XP. Even with XP’s effects turned off.
This box is a 1 and a half years old and it feels more responsive than most dual G5 boxes I’ve worked on.
I used deadmoo’s tiger-x86.tar.bz2 and dd it to a partition on using an Ubuntu Live CD. [Ubuntu plug because they are great]
Some notes:
1. ShuttleX onboard sound worked.
2. Onboard Network did not work. D-Link DGE-530T also did not work. Netgear GA311 works great!
3. Video card is an ATI 9000, it works with no tweaks. Does not seem to be Accelerated
4. TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-H552B Samsung OME 2.5xDL DVD+-R works perfectly. I love this drive.
5. Maxxuss-SSE3-to-SSE2_v0.4 works well for me [and seems to have fixed some video tearing]
6. I have yet to be able to shutdown without having to force the machine off, it hangs at the last screen. Or I am too impatient to let it finish.
7. I had to delete AppleTPMACPI.kext for the obvious reasons.
8. I fixed permissions without issue.
9. I can’t connet to other smb servers by name I have to use ip numbers.
10. I only have 512 MB of RAM, yet its reporting 1GB [odd]
I am using my new Tiger OSx86 to post this. I’m all tingly.
love
carl
