Two Birds, One Stone
Filed under: 
A heavily-discussed topic in this quiet August is Mac OS X piracy. Yet more sets of instructions flow in, which explain about (at least) 3 different ways of installing Mac OS X on non-Apple workstations. To give a snippet of one of them, “1 – Install Darwin 8.0.1…” and yet another: “3. Download Ubuntu Live CD…”. It becomes apparent that a Linux installation is usually, if not always, part of the installation process. It’s a pre-requisite.
OS X will supposedly require its own isolated hard-drive, which is a shame. OS X is good for many things, but not for everything so partitioning would have been a pro. Only 2 days ago I formatted one of my partitions. I would have loved to make it an OS X partition, but I ended up with 2 Linux partitions. Let us refer to it as “two birds with one stone (physical drive)” and needless to mention, penguins are the best birds.
