Howto: Install OSX Tiger on Intel Machines (USB Drives) Using Only Windows Software
This post was published 4 years 7 months 7 days ago which may make its actuality or expire date not be valid anymore. This site is not responsible for any misunderstanding.FOR THE LATEST INFORMATION PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO OUR FEED HERE
The folks at Tech-Recipes have come up with a method to install OS X on a Intel machine using Windows, instead of the somewhat complicated Linux method.
Also, thank you Davak for pointing out where this article came from, unlike the original submitter.
Well, i got it working on my Dell Dimension 8300
Boots only in safe mode, iTunes ain’t workin’…
And i’m posting this messagen with Safari btw.. :D
For the peeps with the green restart message: try booting in safe mode: -x
Thiz rulez.. :D
LOOK, EVERYONE, IF YOU ARE NOT RUNNING THE SAME SPECS AS CURTIS/DEADMOO, DON’T EVEN BOTHER; YOU NEED AN NVIDIA CARD.
Thanks.
hi! I first also got the ‘plist error’, but realized, that the archive has not been properly unpacked. With new version of RAR everything was OK. Could start Mac OS via VMWare, but not via external harddrive (restart screen, even with the -x or -v option). Installing the drive in my laptop worked. Crazy! My laptop: IBM Thinkpad R51 1829-EHG. Any idea, how I get OS X working also from external harddisk???
deadmoo’s password is:
bovinity
VelvetNightmare has a point but he/she isn’t right about needing NVidia. This image runs perfectly on my HP zd8000 laptop (ATI graphics) and my IBM Thinkpad (also ATI). They’re identifed as bog-standard VGA 1024×768, but that’s OK for testing. Sound is fine on both machines too. Like I said before, iTunes in this image is a PowerPC binary not a hybrid so it won’t work on x86, and same goes for the DVD player. Don’t expect thse two apps to start up. Everything else in the OS is fine. I used the latest Stuffit on the PC to unpack everything so I didn’t get the archive problems that seem to be the root (no pun intended) of many ppl’s problems. Don’t be put off from testing, just be aware that some hardware may have problems with this image.
How do you now when it has finish th copy?
The installs on VMware to a direct drive works fine, so long as I load it in VMWare.
But as soon as i boot it native, it get “Still Waiting for Root Device”.
I have multiple drives on my mobo.
there 6 ide channels on the mobo (including SATA), plus 4 channels on a pci ata133 card, where the extra 60gig drive is.
Anyone has a clue?
[...] Howto: Install OSX Tiger on Intel Machines (USB Drives) Using Only Windows Software OS X PROVEN hacked and running on an ordinary PC [...]
If it installs correctly to a physical drive within VMWare, whether using PPC or a prebuilt image, and once booting natively, it hangs at (verbose) “still waiting for root device”, it may simply mean that your Harddrive is installed on a pci ata controller or the like, and Darwin doesn’t see the drive at boot.
One way to find out if Darwin sees the drive at boot, is to burn the darwin.iso to a cdrom, and boot the computer system with it (not in VMWare, but from the bios boot), when the install asks you what drive to install the root in, if it doesn’t show your drive in the list, there goes the error.
In this case, remove that drive from that controller and put it directly on the main IDE or SATA (yes SATA, mine seems to find my SATA drives) controllers, and then reboot, again with the darwin cd-rom, and see if now shows the drive.
If it does, reboot…before it starts, remove the cdrom, and let it boot to MacOS X
No problems using Mac OSX86 on PC, though sound only goes through USB sound. Bu network OK, USB partly OK, can even run some native PPC software.
Haven’t seen anyone mention what the password for root is. So once you change the curtis passwd from bovinity to whatever, I would suggest typing “sudo su -” (without quotes) enter your new password and you will now be the root user. Then type “passwd” to change the root password.
I want to put the image file on a separate USB drive. It is formatted and has 1 NTFS partition. Having no partition results in DD –list not recognizing the drive. I use the DD command but it doesnt seem to result in the image being copied. Can someone tell me if 1) the USB drive needs to formatted and 2) partitioned and 3) what file system (NTFS, FAT32, HFS+). How do you format a USB drive in HFS+ from a WinXP machine?
Thanks!
I used the Chain0 loader to load the MAC partition without it I got the “HFS+ Partition Error”
I have used the diskpart method of transferring the image, and then downloaded and configured the chain0 file, OS X booted, now I just need some speed tips, by the way for me when I booted with -x the comp just turned off. And for some reason it won’t remember my keyboard, it needs to be identified after every bootup. Pretty cool though, thanks deadmoo/curtis.
If you want to change the password for deadmoo, don’t bother with the command line, all you have to do is:
Apple -> System Preferences -> Users -> Click on the icon for the padlock -> enter deadmoo’s password when asked (bovinity) -> enter new password
As a long-time PPC Mac OS X user, welcome to the fold!
For people with problems getting big enough external storage, get an old or redundant hard drive , formatted, (reasonable size) and get a USB to IDE adapter, most run at usb 2.0 and require no drive casing or power changer with fan, just a plug in adapter. much cheaper and easier to transport, i use it to format and repair faulty drives and extract files
There are many things which have been said in this tutorial that can be disputed:
You do not need VMware
You do not need PearPC
You do not need a full harddrive
You do not need Linux. However, you need a working operating system, and if you start from scratch, a Linux Live CD is the shortest path to have one.
I followed the instructions here: http://wiki.radiotux.de/index.php/OSX86#Complete_tutorial_for_Newbies
and now I have Mac OS X and Windows on a dual-boot system on the SAME HARD DISK.
So far I haven’t seen any reports of success on dual-core pentium d. Anyone any experience or knowledge if os x works on the dual-cores at the moment?
I’m spanish and my tiger file from bittorrent is different it has carpet well one it’s name is mactel is that the image there are 2 rar what should i do is the same question that a guy did 2 weeks ago but he hadn’t answer can you explain it now i can’t find another torrent file without the same thing thank you before nothing
Why do people keep saying stuff won’t run since it is ppc? This image has Rosetta like any other OS X x86 install. You just need a CPU with SSE3 or some ‘modifications’ in other cases.
Also, the deadmoo one is sort of kludged and doesn’t include the proper CoreGraphics file for things and you’d need the original.
It works on a dual-core system but you have to edit kext files (for ICH7).
Has anyone gotten it to boot fine of an external USB2 drive though?
Yes, native PPC apps run with this image (MS Office, etc.). The tiger-x86 image as distributed did not work for me until I installed the v0.5c combined SSE2 and anti-TPM patch (see http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?showtopic=1909). I also am booting it from an external USB2 drive. Works great!
Hjelp… I need help… Can anybody tell me the requirements for install the osx?
Hello!
The multi-language boot error was resolved for me by removing my ATI 9600 card and using the built-in video card; I noticed that at the Darwin screen the ATI card was recognized as only 16MB, so no real loss using motherboard video… Hope this helps Alle and others.
…. i have a acer extensa 4100 with ati X600 graphics.
I have the same problem helps me… is what I can modify my graphics board knowing that I have a portable computer ??????
thanks
I have a x700 excuse me loool
thanks
the multi language error thing is a kernel panic. suggest you look at support for your hardware.
Where do i go to download OS X 86????
the problem now is i DON HAVE External USB HDD. Den can i install X86? If can, how? I dl linux Live Cd. Now i duno how~ i read tutorial, n many say need external HDD, but i don1 have~ I have 3 internal HDD. Anyone got solution? plz mail to alexis_jeans@hotmail.com
Installed on Dell Dimension 8400. Hangs on the apple screen showing a circle with a slash through it. I believe the problem is the ATI x300 video card. I will try a different one then post again. Got the best info from http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Index.php/Install_On_A_Simple_And_Accurate
sorry wrong link
http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Install_On_A_Partition_Simple_And_Accurate
ok I got it working on my Dell Demension 8400 *ONLY IN SAFE MODE* I had the message “Still waiting for root device” to get past that I had to boot into bios and under “Drives” then “SATA Operation” I had to change “RAID Autodetect / AHCI” to “RAID Autodetect / ATA” When I try to boot normally I get “Waiting for remote debugger connection. kdp_poll: no debugger device” Will update if I get it working.
Boots normally now on my Dell Demension 8400 P4 ATI x300. I had to delete all the ATI extensions from “system”"library”"Extensions” to boot normally without panic.
yo fuckfaces it’s a 6GB image.
hey guys,
are you all nuts, running a mac on your PC. Mac is the most useless OS I ever used. leave your PC’s alone. Forget about this Mac shit. If it is a good OS it should have become more popular than windows now.
I call BULLSHIT!! No way is there a PC designed for Windows thats running Mac OS. Show me one and I’ll eat my hat!!
Oh, by the way…my Commodor 64 is running Windows Vista now. Bah, ha, ha, ha, ha.
has anyone tried running apps like final cut or dvd studio on pc’s running osx?
os x86
I have a blank toshiba Tecra 8100 how do i boot up mac OS X Panther i have the disks and i cant install xp on it
I really have messed my laptop up!
I get an error code 4 when i try and install XP
Do I need Windows on for Mac to install?
Working FLAWLESSLY on a Gateway 550GR/Pentium 4 3.2Ghz (SSE3) with GMA900 and 1.5GB RAM. Starts in 3.5 seconds from bios to login! Dashboard even does the nifty ripple effect (and it looks even better than the one on my REAL mac!) Also did the VMWare Image Expand trick for full drive use. It even burns DVDs from iDVD! Amazing! You need SSE3 to really see the best performance and usability though.
got a problem with the restart screen, im trying everything you guys said here. thanks for the tut/tips :D
I keep getting the “OSX needs to reboot your computer” problem. When I run in -v or vebose mode I get this :-
Panic ( cpu 0 caller 0xc01a0893 ) : bdevvp failed open
Debugger called : ( Panic )
I am using a Dell Latitude D600 – Pentium M Centrino computer
Can someone please help me out ?
Thanks …

This small tutorial will help you to install on a PC with a processor INTEL or AMD the famous operating system of APPLE Mac OS X I think that this tutorial must be very complete because I carried it out with the manners simplest to carry out all the operations and I took as a starting point several English sites.
Remote loading:
The image of Mac OS X x86 (Version 10.4.1) for x86. This image is in the form of tar file. You will be able to find the file on all the Peer-To-Peer networks in the form of:
- tiger-86.tar.bz2: This file – of 1.29 Go – in is made the image of VMware (software of emulation) of Mac OS X x86. In this file you will find the file of 5.99 Go named tiger-x86-flat.img it is EC file which contains Mac OS X86.
Material + Software required:
A hard disk in IDE of a minimum capacity of 10 Go. (20Go recommended)
An operating system déja installed on another disc (Microsoft® Windows® XP Pro or Home)
Mac Drive 6 Free Trial … :: Download::…
dd for Windows …:: Download::…
WinRAR 3.51 …:: Download::…
Preparation with the instalation:
1. Décompressez the file tiger-x86.tar.bz2 using the WinRAR software.
2. Copy the file – that you come from décompresser – tiger-86-flat.img to the root of the hard disk C: / (root = Double-clike on the icone in the Working station)
3. Copy the files dd.exe and Diskio.dll with the root of C: /
4. Carry out cmd (To start, Executer…, and type cmd then insert Enter)
5. Type – to have easier, I go type the orders which you will have to insert between guillements (“test”), you suspect biensûr that they will have to be removed – “diskpart”
6.Ensuite once diskpart initialized, type “list disk”
7. A list of all your disks hard appears retain well the number of the disc or you wish to install Mac OS X x86.
8. Type “exit”
Preparation of the hard disk:
To be able to install Mac OS X, you must have a hard disk formatted with the filing system of Mac OS X (the HFS+), MacDrive 6 allows to do it since Windows. MacDrive 6 does not create in made q’ a partition on this disc or formatte a whole disc you will choose in the assistant.
1. Executez MacDrive 6
2. Click on Partition has mac HardDisk.
3. Follow the assistant and partitionnez your disc.
Copy image of Mac OS X x86 from the Hard Disk:
1. To start, Executer…, and type cmd then insert Enter.
2. Then, type “Cd C: \”
3. Ensure you to have décompressé dd well.
4. Type “dd.exe”
!! Our disc carries number 0 and there is only one partition (0), remember the number of your disc (see higher).
5. Then, type “if=c:tiger-86-flat.img of=\\?\Device\Harddisk0\Partition0″ (without “”)
6. To try to type a letter, if Ca does not go the long operation of copy of Mac OS X x86 on your hard disk is indeed started. If not, réessayez.
7. Once the finished copy, the program posts you the number of bytes copied.
8. Start again your PC!!
Enjoy Mac OS X x86!!
Veiled, the operation is finished. You have Mac OS x86. This version 10.4.1 crackée for processors INTEL is called DeadMoo Image. Because the cracker is DeadMoo…
This version functions at 100% since the applications which it contains are officiellements created by APPLE for the Intels processors.
I congratulate you to have made a success of this operation.
If you have questions about the course of operation or that you have a problem, I will have a pleasure of helping you.

I’m thinking about doing this, but does anyone know if it will run on a Dell Inspiron 6000 (1.7ghz Centrino, 2gb RAM and ATI X300)?
Also is there any way to simply run Tiger off the USB hard drive, rather than install it natively?

Hi there,
Thailand rules!!
I managed to make a Benq Joybook S73G-M17 Run OSX tiger Universal
and it all works well. The build in DVD-Dual DVD-RW works fine with toast.
Some Thai friend of me converted dual core intel OS linux into an OSX tiger with ease. It will only run native though. So no more XP in the way.
The start up is a bit slow, but once it runs, i can work with Apple studio PRO universal faster then with a MACBOOK PRO!!
I spend only 47.000 baht for this baby including the OSX, that is around 900 euro for the fastest MACBOOK PRO with an T2400 Processor and 2.5GB mem.
We will set up a website soon, on which we can provide these tranformations in Thailand only.
So please be patient.
A Benq MACBOOK PRO
I have a friend in northeast Toronto who had files recovered from his crashed eMac OSX on a new external USB2 hard drive. He has an old Mac that runs only OS9, but it cannot mount the new external drive. He has also bought a new PC laptop, which he likes, but he needs the old files (no back-up). If there is someone who can get his machine to read the old files or otherwise assist for a reasonable fee, let me know. He would buy another Mac but has been hosed by a former Mac salesman/fanboy, so would like to get off that boat.

Can anyone tell me what is the root device? tanx to rply me on narle69@hotmail.com
This is from linux. the root device is where the lowest level of the filesystem is located (/). In this case, it should be your dvd drive, and this indicates that the installer is having difficulty reading the DVD (why, i can’t say)
why not get the modified ISO and install that way?
