Razzle Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Anyone ever have luck installing OSx 10.5+ on an X1? I know its possible to install 10.4 but thats way too dated at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razzle Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 I tried this last fall with a bunch of different releases. Could never get it to work. I got the fatal error reboot every time the installer began. Haven't read online anywhere of anyone having success installing it on the X1, but I doubt its completely impossible. Maybe I'll give it another go and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Leon Posted March 19, 2011 Administrators Share Posted March 19, 2011 Ok, it wont run Lion, thats for sure..I'm not sure about SL since you only have MMX, SSE, SSE2 support.. if my memory services me right, then you need atleast SSE3 for SL. But i think you should be able to run Leopard.. what have you tried so faar ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
