Dual-Boot Mac OS Leopard and Vista on XPS M1330 : Part 1 of 3
PART 1 : PREPARATION
Before Installation, I assume (and advise) that you have deleted the MediaDirect partitions and having a single NTFS partition with Vista installed and some unallocated space for Mac OS.
(If you don’t know what the heck this line means, drop the idea of installing Mac OS)
Now boot into Vista, open the command prompt (Start -> type cmd)and type the commands (the ones in bold) -
DISKPART
(opens the disk partition editor)list disk
select disk x
(where x is the disk no., most probably 0)list partition
create partition primary size =n id=af
(where n is size of partition in MB) (id=af means its Mac OS compatible)list partition
select partition y
(where y is the newly created partition, most probably 2)active
exit

PS: sumit@dpscomplab.com???? C’mon dude. Besides, there’s no BSNL in school.
| Posted 2 years, 9 months agoAditya beta, don’t you know about torrents. Take Mac OS pirated from there….!!!
c’mon dont act as if u r computer fool
| Posted 2 years, 9 months agoTJ,
| Posted 2 years, 9 months agoWho the hell has got the time to wake up at 2 a.m. and then download it(except for guys like u or mrinal).I was just asking for it bcoz he claims that Mac OS is virus-proof.
And 4.5gb file(the latest one he told me)is nothing as such that u go to a torrent site and u r done within few hours,especially at the superfast speed that bsnl provides.
I dont want 2 take risk bcoz my comp. has recovered from a serious problem and my father thinks that all those softwares that i downloaded from torrents are responsible for it.Now, u know why I asked for the DVD.

| Posted 2 years, 9 months agowell, i was looking for a newly released AppleYukon.kext for the LAN driver, but haven’t yet got the time to try out every version floating around. Besides, I use Mac OS X only for Grapher, iWork and for disinfecting pen drives :-0
| Posted 2 years, 9 months agohi everyone,
I’m tryin to install mac os x on my xps m1330 laptop but i d’ont know what the problem is
first i try with the kalyway soft. i just create some unallocated space for os x thenn try to boot by the burned dvd, but always stop after few seconds.
Posted 2 years, 5 months agothen i try your method mrinal.
so i format entirely my only hard disk (c:) (i also delete the recovery partition)
i put windows 7 (which i think work like vista for a lot of things)
Then i open the command prompt and put your command inside.
When i try to do this before formating it didn’t work but after it was ok.
then i download the iatkos V7,then burned it to a dvd, and boot from it.
when i tap enter on the iatkos v7 line to boot on it the first time it show me a white screen with the apple logo and some text.
then i desabled the dual core in the bios(i saw that on some blogs),and reboot.
this time i don’t have the the text on the white creen. Only the logo (the wheel is charging but stay on this screen) –> i wait a little more than an hour but stay like that.
Help me please….
my config is
dell xps m1330
intel (R) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU T7250 2.00GHZ
RAM 2.00GB
windows 7 ultimate 32 bit
Nvidia Geforce 8400M GS
