Boz Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 I don't wanna sound rude or anything, but people asking about whether or not OSX emulation can be ran as a standalone OS on PC or the problem that happens with drive being screwed up (in some cases, wiped out) should really READ the information on PearPC site. Jesus, I mean so many lazy people who just wanna get info the easy way. I guess all of us who read stuff on sites and stuff like that are obviously morons when you think that you're getting answers in 5 sec here. Phew, just needed to vent...it's gone :) Btw, great tutorial.

uniacid Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 ^^ um ok? did I post expecting to get a quick answer no, and show me where I could find information about drives messing up as I don't see any pearpc's site or forum.

Boz Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 uni, it's not saying the drive will show 0 free space..but it is mentioned (a couple of times) that it will most definitely screw up data on your hard drive, thus anomalies.

KeR Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 hmm one thing I noticed is that when I set the priority of PearPC under the Task Manager to Real Time my installation of OS X was dones in about 30min.

game_over Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 I don't wanna sound rude or anything, but people asking about whether or not OSX emulation can be ran as a standalone OS on PC or the problem that happens with drive being screwed up (in some cases, wiped out) should really READ the information on PearPC site. Jesus, I mean so many lazy people who just wanna get info the easy way. I guess all of us who read stuff on sites and stuff like that are obviously morons when you think that you're getting answers in 5 sec here. what are you talking about? if people dindt ask questions forums like this wouldnt be half as popular. if someone wants 2 know something about computers or something specific like pearpc they have as much right to come here than pear pc site, it actually says something about the site aswel.. that theyw ud rather come here than to an official site about a certain product coz they can get better support here.
