Hi, here is the installaiton steps I did on my Fujitsu U810... I did this steps for you all.. If you have any questions please dont hesitate to ask me... Good luck!!! This Procedure might work on other Models as well...
To install MAC OSX you will need the following:
- Licensed copy of MacOS Tiger 10.4.
- Your Laptop
- DVD drive (internal or External)
- Jas' hacked OSX Tiger image file: 10.4.8 JaS AMD-Intel-SSE2-SSE3 with pp1 and ppf2 (don't ask me for this...)
- A lot of Patience
- Most importantly, Backup of your Files.
Remember, in the process you might not be successful. You need to be prepared to do this and accept the consequences. If in case you fail, not only that you cannot install MAC but your Windows OS might also not boot anymore…
How to prepare your machines:
If you want to make a dual boot into your machine, make sure you have 2 partitions. 1 will be your existing OS (XP or VISTA) and the 2nd will be for the MAC OSX. If in case you don’t have 2 parititions, you can make another partition by following the steps below:
1) Right Click on My Computer>Manage
2) In the Computer Management, Open Disk Management.
3) Right Click C drive and Shrink Volume. This will allow you to create another partition on your drive, which you can use for MAC OSX installation. YOU NEED TO HAVE AT LEAST 6GB space.
Now, that you have your unused drive, you can now create a volume for your MAC OSX. Please remember that you will need to format the drive NOT with NTFS or FAT but using the MAC OSX readable format “AF HFS+ format”. You can do this by running DiskPart utility command thru your CMD prompt. To do this follow below steps:
1) Start Run>Command
2) Type DISKPART and Enter
3) Run command below:
DISKPART> select disk 0 (this will select the first hard disk drive)
DISKPART> list partition (you should see 1 partition)
DISKPART> create partition primary size=6000 id=af (size is the space to allocate to Tiger's partition, you can use the whole free space; id=af is the HFS+ compatible Mac partition format)
DISKPART> list partition (you should see 2 partitions now)
DISKPART> select partition 2 (2 should be the Tiger partition create above)
DISKPART> active (now this partition will be the first-boot active partition)
DISKPART> exit (quit from Diskpart)
Remember once you set ACTIVE on the 2nd partition, this will be the first boot partition drive. If you restart the machine “You will get a NON-BOOST DISK” and your OS (XP/VISTA) will not boot.
You can now start the MAC OSX installation by booting from the DVD (MAC OSX INSTALLATION)
MAC OSX Installation:
Before proceeding with the MAC OSX Installation, Make sure that your Jas' hacked OSX Tiger image file: 10.4.8 JaS AMD-Intel-SSE2-SSE3 with pp1 and ppf2 image is now burned into bootable DVD. You can use many burning applications to do this (ex. Alcohol etc..) make sure to set in the BIOS to boor first from the DVD drive. Follow below steps for the MAC installation.
1) Boot from the Jas' hacked OSX Tiger image file: 10.4.8 JaS AMD-Intel-SSE2-SSE3 with pp1 and ppf2 DVD.
2) The DVD will now boot into the Installer for OS X. Be patient as this can take a while.
3) After the installer starts up, hit the arrow and wait for the Welcome screen to pop-up.
4) Now, before you hit continue, at the top of the screen click on the menu that says ‘Utilities’, then click on ‘Disk Utility’.
5) When the disk utility comes up, you should see on the left side of the screen your hard disk.
6) Select the partition that you are going to install OS X on. Make sure the partition you select is not your Windows partition. You can make sure of this by checking the file format of the partition in the bottom-left portion of the window.
7) Once you have the correct partition selected press the tab that reads ‘Erase’.
8) In the drop-down menu select ‘Mac OS X (Journaled)’ and name it something simple like ‘osx’ or ‘leo’. DO NOT use a “space” in the name or any other special characters such as % or &.
9) Press Erase and press it again in the pop-up.
10) Close out of the Disk Utility by clicking on the red button in the top left corner of the window.
11) You’ll now see that you are returned to the Welcome screen. Click Continue and agree to the Licence.
12) In the Installation destination screen select the partition you just made. Click Continue.
13) Proceed with the MAC Installation (Relax and have a coffee.)
When done, restart the system but keep the disk in the drive. Process will show us the well-know boot manager: don't touch... it will boot by itself!
The first reboot will ask you about details like LOCATION, KEYBOAD and Name etc… Input all information then your OSX Windows will appear. You are now done with the OSX installation.
Preparing your Drive for Dual Boot:
Wait.. Remember that you are running a dual boot of XP. You need to configure the Darwin Boot Loader to get selection for the Dual Boot. To make these tasks easy, we will use Darwin's Boot menu, which can be recalled simply pressing the F8 key before the Apple boot logo with a variant: a timer.
Launch the Terminal (Applications -> Utilities) then type:
sudo nano /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist
Edit the time-out flag as this (7 is a value in seconds):
<key>Timeout</key>
<string>7</string>
Save the changes: CTRL+O -> Enter to save the file, and CTRL+X to quit from nano.
Your com.apple.Boot.plist should look like this…
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Kernel</key>
<string>mach_kernel</string>
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string>cpus=1</string>
<key>Quiet Boot</key>
<string>No</string>
<key>Timeout</key>
<string>7</string>
<key>Boot Graphics</key>
<string>Yes</string>
</dict>
</plist>
Reboot your machine and the DARWIN Boot loader should run.. you should have the option to select which partition to use. This will allow you now to boot either Windows XP/VISTA and your MAC OSX.
Remember to check other devices installed on your machine. Some may work and some may not. You can now check the internet for solutions. In Fujistu U810, the Wifi Card didn’t work….
CONGRATULATIONS…….
