Well its been only a day since the Mac OSX Leopard was released officially by Apple and the hackers have managed to create a patched DVD that everyone like you and me can use to install Leopard on PC’s without having to buy a Mac. Please note the tutorial that I am going to post is still experimental and things might not work the right way simply because it is still early days in hacking Leopard to work on PC’s. Well if you don’t mind your PC getting screwed then go ahead and try out this tutorial.

Make sure you backup all important data before you proceed. Here are the things that you will need before Install Leopard on your PC…

  • The Patched DVD Image
  • The zip file containing the patch
  • One pen drive or USB Flash Drive formatted as FAT32

Well once you have all these you can go ahead and Install Leopard..

Step 1. Getting things ready  

  • Burn the DVD Image onto a Single Layer DVD-R using a software like Nero.
  • Format the USB Flash Drive and the drive label should be “Patcher” without the quotes. Please note it has to be “Patcher” only and nothing else for the patch to work when we apply it later.
  • Extract the Zip file and put its contents into the USB Flash Drive.
  • Now your USB Drive should contain a folder called “files”, if it doesn’t then check to see where you have gone wrong.

 

Step 2. Installing Leopard

  • Now that you have the Patched DVD with you, you can now install Leopard. Pop in the DVD into the drive and boot into it by pressing F12 at the BIOS Prompt.
  • Boot into the DVD and the installer should now load. It take a while though, so be patient.
  • Select your Language and make sure you select Customize and you need to deselect all the packages that are displayed.
  • Leopard will now install. This can take a while, so go grab yourself a coffee.
  • It will ask you to Reboot, so go ahead and Reboot. Before rebooting make sure that USB Flash Drive is connected to the PC.

 

Step 3. Patching Leopard

  • Now that you have got Leopard installed, you need to patch it. Before we do that Boot into the Leopard DVD like the way you did before.
  • Wait for the Darwin Bootloader to load. Once it loads up press F8. You should now see a prompt. Type -s and hit enter. The DVD will now load in Verbose mode. Watch for any errors. It should load without a problem because you have already installed Leopard.
  • Once the setup is loaded select your Language. Once done you should now be seeing the Welcome Screen. Once there navigate to Utilities-Terminal.
  • Once the terminal loads up, you now need to browse to your USB Drive, so follow the steps below, typing it exactly as it appears below in the Terminal.

In the command line type the following as they appear here

cd ..
cd ..
cd Volumes
cd Patcher
cd files

Notice the space between cd and the 2 dots.

  • Now its the time to run the patcher to make sure Leopard will work on your PC. Type the following into the Terminal.

./9a581PostPatch.sh

  • The Patch should now run. You can answer Yes while removing the ACPUPowerManagement.kext
  • After the Script is done, you should now be able to Boot into Leopard after you restart.

 

Step 4. Congratulations! You’ve done the Impossible!

 

Well that was it. Please note this has not been extensively tested, so most of your Hardware like Sound, Network may not work. If something goes wrong for you or you want to help us, then please join the discussion over at OSX86Scene. If you noticed I haven’t posted the links to the Torrent that contains the DVD image and the zip. Well I haven’t posted them because I am sure the lawyers over at Apple are going to sue the hell out of me. If you wondering where you can find them, then head over to Demonoid and search for it. 

Well here are few screenshots by Mac.nub over at the forums who could get Leopard working on his system.

Some Updates and Clarifications :

  • This Hack works on Intel PC’s with atleast SSE3
  • You need to format your Leopard Partition to HFS+
  • Make Sure you install Leopard on MBR and not GUID or it won’t boot.
  • More Patched DVD’s from Uphuck, Netkas is in the works so it would be better if you wait for the polished releases to come out.

Mac OS X Leopard GM Final 9A581 Kernel Patch (INTEL/AMD/NO-HPET/NO-NX/SSE2) and Source Code for OSx86 Hackintosh

This kernel patch will allow you to run the newest leopard build (10.5 final or 9a581) on your (non apple) Intel or AMD pc.

Also included is the source code that was originally written by Lorem (oui, socket), Maxxuss, and Rufus for SSE3 emulation, the CPUID_SET_INFO patch that allows it to run on non Intel, and also several other tweaks and patches that allows all of this to work. This should be open to the world to have, so that others may be able to pick up where they left off and make their own kernels, and not just a few select people to have. The author of the source code has given me permission to post it here.

Thanks to vboyz for great howto

OK folks, this is a quick mini howto on getting Leopard on your SSE2 machine. I got it to work on my Dell 9300.

Not working: System Profiler crashes every time.
Working: almost everything else include Sigmatel sound, Geforce 6800 go with natit, wireless (Atheros), wired (broadcom) internet

OK here it goes.

1. Follow the BrazilMac’s guide to patch the original leopard down to SL DVD. Leave it there once done. Note: this will shrink the DVD size down to single layer DVD. To make it full Dual Layer, if you want, I think you can just edit the script not to remove the files (?) not tested though.
2. Follow this link and download the kernel patcher to bring it down to SSE2. Note: you will need to extract the mach_kernel from your original UNTOUCHED DMG. The patched kernel will be named as “mach_kernel.hacked” rename it to “mach_kernel”
3. Now, you should have a patch dvd and a SSE2 kernel on your desktop (or somewhere else), open a terminal and type: “hdiutil attach -readwrite $path_to_patch_dvd -owners no” (no quotes). This will allows you to mount the iso in writable mode. In terminal, type “cd /Volumes/xxx” where xxx is the label for the patch DVD iso.
4. Now we need to rename the mach_kernel which came from the patched DVD (because it is SSE3 kernel), by typing: “mv mach_kernel mach_kernel.sse3?
5. Then, copy the SSE2 kernel on your desktop to here by typing: “cp /Users/xxx/Desktop/mach_kernel .”
6. Exit out of the terminal, then right click on the mounted DVD ISO and eject it.
7. Burn the DVD, boot and install. Note: during installation, choose your language, then select a drive to install and click Customize and deselect everything.
8. Once installation finished, run the 9a581post-patch.sh however you want (either thru tiger or usb drive).

VERY IMPORTANT here:

9. There are 2 kext from Tiger that you will need: the dsmos.kext and AppleSMBIOS.kext without these you will get Leopard kernel panic.
10. Now boot into single mode of Leopard, copy the dsmos.kext and AppleSMBIOS.kext from tiger partition (or wherever else) to /System/Library/Extensions, overwrite the existing ones (because they are for SSE3 I think)
11. Repair persmision and such and reboot.
12. Now you have Leopard on SSE2 machine.
