I’m gonna to post some problems that faced me while installing the Mac Leopard Distro Called iDeneb
Actually iDeneb is a hacked version for x86 machines of Mac OS Leopard.

Hardware Requirements: a Processor with either SSE2, SSE3 or both, at least 512GB RAM, at least 8 GB free Disk Space and DVD R/W

I used iDeneb v1.3, you may search for it in any public torrent site //Note that iDeneb is illegal version

Download the ISO image and Burn it to a Blank DVD .. make sure that the DVD is burnt right before deleting the ISO image.

The Installation is very Simple .. I was done in about 30 minutes. //I’ll just mention the things that you may not to conclude it yourself easily

1- Boot from the DVD.

2- In the welcome screen choose from the MenuBar >> Utilities >> Disk Utilities.

3- Erase/Format the partition you are going to use for Mac as “Mac OS Extended Journaled”. //If you have problems .. I suggest you use any partitioning tool to format the partition into FAT32 .. I have got some problems with erasing the NTFS partitions.

4- Close the Disk Utilities and complete  the required steps

5- In the Install Summary Window Click Customize then choose the Fixes/Patches that fit and your PC Hardware.

6- Finish Installation and then you are done.

wow .. so easy .. huh ;)

I have got some problems and I’m gonna to list it isA..

The first problem that faced me was “Boot0: error”

After installation is successfuly finished I can’t boot my iDeneb .. the only way to access it was by booting from the DVD!

After many try and errors I got that the Leopard must be installed in a PRIMARY PARTITION :D

So I used Acronis Disk Director to tweak my Hard Disk and I reInstalled the Leopard and .. tada!! It is done :)
