A "boot" file modified to run Snow.

It's in internal tests and developement. Sorry, I can't share.

PowerPC going down, crap Celeron D going up.

Wow, seriously? Man, if I had known that I wouldn't have sold it for this G5.

Now the only hack i have left is this AMD box... here's hoping for Snow Leo on AMD64!

Oh, and just for the heck of it, I tried booting the Snow Leopard installer on my iBook G3.. looks like they've completely removed the G3's machine identifiers from the kernel...

hahahahah " We are hanging here..." let me think in old times

Now, about error, is related to AppleACPIPlatform...maybe need some modifications on ACPI kext otr, need use this old kext from Leopard...maybe should work...(or not)...

This tests is ftw. :hack:

I have to say, I am shocked.

Here we are two months post-wwdc08 and we are still using the same old wwdc build...

I've just installed snow and ilife, I did run geekbench but I did get the same result as when I had 10.5.5

However, it does feel quite a bit faster actually, apps launch much faster.
I did also run xbench just to see if there is any difference in numbers.

Clean install with leo 10.4.9 my result was 106 and with snow 10.5.6 I got 120 so about 10-13% faster I guess.

But by feeling it feels more like 20% faster

Window focus seems to be a bit off from time to time. ilife did install perfect. I'll try more apps later on.
