Is anyone able to run a version of OS X Tiger later than 10.4.3 on a Dell Inspiron 1300/B130? It only appears on the 10.4.3 Hardware Compatibility List wiki...

 

Yes, 10.4.6 works. Apparently, apart from sleep issues, needing a workaround to see on something on the screen and currently no sound it works great for everything (wireless, DVD burner, etc)

Sorry I haven't gotten round to adding second wiki entry but I confirm 10.4.6 works. I had a prepatched ISO and everything except sound worked from the install disc - so no tweaking like previous versions. To get battery monitoring and power controls I had to install the tweaked Notebook Hardware Control thingy on the forums. Also you need an external monitor or dongle plugged in to boot and install as with previous installs. Now I am just waiting for james2smart to finish writing the Sigmatel 9200 sound drivers - progress looks good!
