I would like to run OS X leopard or the Kalaway 10.5.2 from a USB HDD or on my internal HDD.

I can turn any HDD into an external HDD and format it as nessacary with a mac or PC (i do have two macs - but i want a 'mactop' and as i am a student i don't have the money!) i have OS X Tiger & Leopard retail discs & intend to download the kalaway (please post a link if possible!) I have formatted an internal HDD with HFS+ and copied my entire G4 HDD to the external HDD on my PC using FireWire Disk mode. And guess what? it doesn't work! no surprise there! Any help would be appriciated!

Thanks. :hack:

(sorry 4 dbl post - but i need help bad!)

Heres the details of my laptop just incase:

Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo T7300 (1.6 GHz/4MB L2 Cache)
OS: Microsoft Vista Home Premium
Hard Drive: 160 GB SATA @ 5400RPM
Screen: 15.4" WSXGA Widescreen (1680 x 1050)
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 256MB
RAM: 2.0GB DDR2 SDRAM @667 MHz (2 x 1GB)
Optical Drive: 8x CD/DVD burner (DVD+/-RW) w/Double Layer Support

Looks great, try with Leo4all or JaS 10.5.4 and good luck

Whats your laptop btw?

It's just a DELL Inspiron 1520! - nothing special!

Thanks for your help, I will post results and/ or a simple help sheet once my install is complete!

I know I can't post links for Torrents/ Google but can I recommend products such as a HDD cage or USB to IDE HDD cable (from ebay or other site) if I think they are of use in the project or in my description of how I am using them.

Thanks. :hack:
