W00t!!! I was finally able to get my hackintosh to boot from the HD and not a boot disk.

What a pain.

More progress. Still in Leopard, but now I have sound and all the sleep, restart and shutdown functions work.

Enough for tonight. Onward!

I won't convert, but I like this challenge and it can help me out a little in the Mac arena.

OS X is based off the BSD (Berkeley Software Distribution) flavor of Unix.

I am mostly in the Windows environment these days, so this also helps dust off the cobwebs with my real passion - Linux and Unix. A lot of the commands are the same.

Edit: I've worked with SCO Unix, FreeBSD, Open BSD, Redhat/Fedora Linux, Slackware Linux (my favorite), Ubuntu and e-smith Linux (The worst).
