Im new to installing Operating Systems. After finding and installing the correct version of Ubuntu on my ps3 (which sucks anyway), i decided to try to install Mac on my PC.

I went ahead and downloaded and burned the iAtkos 5.1i leopard onto a DVD-R, and popped it into my drive. I can get to the install screen fine (on my external moniter), but I dont know how to set it up to install on my extra partition, while keeping Windows XP on the other partition. When i get to the part to select a drive to install to, the window is blank (with the exception of what i assume is the install disk).

Question 1: How do i install it on my 37.5 GB NTFS partition while keeping all my XP files and other data on the other partition?

Question 2: is it possible to install with the specs given below?


Specs

Acer Aspire 1640 (laptop)
Intel Pentium Processor 1.60GHz, 1.60GHz
760MB Ram

Thanks

You need to make a HFS+ partition to install Mac OS X. Click here to see the faq to create the partition within windows, after that just reboot with the dvd and install.

I was able to follow the disk partition part, but the "Copy the image over your partition" section is way over my head.

Any help?

iATKOS OSx86 Project: Instructions

Personally I would use IPC 10.5.6 instead - it solves a lot of issues with many generic pc's

If you cannot do partitions and understand the lingo - get ready for an education in frustration

Im sorry but that link that you gave me just confuzes me even more. I have a partion set on my pc, i just cant get it to work in the iAtkos setup. it says it cant mount the drive.

heres a screen of my partition, the way it tells me up to the part im stuck at:
