I have gone through all steps of installation, and the computer is restarted.īut I could never get it boot into OS X, if I remove the installation disk. Here is the result I get when I type list partition in diskpart (after I have installed OS X on Partition 5): The disk I am using is the 'Mac OS X 10.4.8 ' My T40's DVD rom cannot read disk now, so I am using an external USB DVD rom to intall OS X. You might be able to figure out what's wrong in my installation. I am putting my question here, since you are using the same guide and same hardware.

The reasons I put this guide out is because the current guide on the OSX86 Project wiki is specific to a Thinkpad T42 and does not deal with any post installation issues such as graphics and networking. I've been messing around with the OSX for only a day now, originally going to buy a MacBook the other day when I found out you can put OSX on an Intel computer.
