Hello folks, I'm new fella here and I'd like to ask if anybody has successfully installed Darwin 8.0.1 x86 under Qemu 0.7.1 on PPC Tiger /or Project Q I use/ or VPC 7.0.2. I'd like to possibly switch some of my FreeBSD server boxes into Darwin x86 to demonstrate that Darwin OS is for server purposes as good as his cousins *BSDs or Linux OS. But before realizing this idea I want to get into Darwin x86 under some emu./ virt. software. Qemu problem: CPU: x86 Option: platform=x86 -v Darwin freezes after kernel has been loaded. CPU: x86-64 Option: platform=x86 -v Surprisingly it's booting and installation runs with uncompression errors on .tar.bz2 packages. /packages are not corrupted/. Booting after whole installations ends is not successful, Darwin is missing some dylibs as libncurses etc.. VPC problem: Hard to tell, VPC hangs with "Unrecoverrable CPU Error" when kernel loading. I use Tiger on PB and I'd be thankful for any advice. Thx, Don Martinello. Martin Vrabel <http://www.scitech.sk> Unix is not only an OS, it is a way of life.
