Hey i'm using a first gen acer 5920G and i'm very interested in installing Mac OS in my laptop..
I've been holding the iatkos 1.0r2 for a very long time...just that i'm scared to do it..
Can anyone give me a guide on how to do it..
Do i have to make a recovery disk?Because i used acer erecovery management but it came out as 2 dvds..

I think my main problem of not being able to boot into leopard after installing successfully is my many partitions etc...
But its not like i made those partitions..it came with my laptop and i don't know how to just make it into 2 plain partitions without corrupting my vista...

My disk management is like this..
1) A drive called eisa configuration...
2) ACER(C drive) where my vista is installed
3) DATA (D drive) where i plan to install leopard
4) And unallocated 3GB drive...(I don't know what is this...cant extend etc..)

So what should i do??

I been trying so long and can't get it to work...pls help someone...Anyone with good pc knowledge pls help...

Hey..i finally decided to try installing
I erase my HDD using disk utility in kalyway installer..
I then partiton it to 2 partitions..
One named ACER as MS-DOS and the other MACOSX as Mac OS X Journaled(Extended)

Then i insert my acer recovery dvd and it restore sucessfully and i restart..
Then it get stuck after the acer word..
Just a black screen...and no activity on my HDD at all..(light not blinking)
What can i do now...
I repeated it multiple times..

I can't even get back to vista now...
there's one moderator who did this way and also using the same laptop got it working perfectly..


Added on August 9, 2008, 9:04 pmWithout caring about my vista i just install kalyway into my laptop..
After that it boot smoothly..
Then when i restart it won't boot again..
It will just go to the appl logo then restart..again and again..
