I haven't installed Leopard just yet, Shadic. I'm still using Tiger.

I'd try to burn the DVD on a college Mac on Saturday (from the original DMG, without trying to convert it to ISO), but my mother was extremely bitchy about the idea. Sigh.

Yeah, that too, I guess.


GRUB doesn't like Win7 and vice-versa.


*Aerakin messed around with that yesterday.


Now I just know some commands:

rootnoverify (hd0, 0)

makeactive
chainloader +1
boot


Makes everything magically work*

*Some luck may or may not be involved.

The native copy/cut/paste functions with Windows 7.
The cancel button should cancel the file copy, not crash explorer.exe.

Also, MP3 players that recognize a USB2.0 connection, but only transfer at USB1.0.

I actually got the chance to burn said DVD today. Guess what?

It actually worked, and I'm on Leopard now. I guess people made DMGs of OS X for a reason, and not ISOs... :|
