Hi !

My name is Arthur I'm from the Netherlands.

Trying to make a Dell Workstation with dual Xeon 5570 CPU's work with Mac OSX.

I'm not entirely new to this forum, I've been here in the past (5 years ago) trying a build [that didn't work], but now back again, with fresh inspiration!

Kind Regards, Arthur

Hi everyone,

 

I'm Fnux, an old froggy with a long 40 year business experience within the software industry, having played with CP/M, MP/M, DOS, OS/2, Windows (all releases since 1.0) and for 5 years from now with many Linux distros (ArchLinux, Bridge, CentOS, Debian, Fedora, GNULinux, LinuxMint, LMDE, Manjaro, RHEL and Ubuntu).

 

However, nor am I a geek or an expert but simply still a computer passionate, and I unfortunately never ever had the chance to buy and/or use a Mac and to play with OS/X (even if I love Apple products and enjoy both my iPhone 4 and iPad 2).

 

So, I thank you in advance to accept me here as a real "newbee" asking "obvious and dumb" questions for most of you (including what are the damned equivalent keystroke combinations of the Mac keyboard on a PC Windows keyboard such as: e.g. the "Apple" key Vs. the "Windows" key, etc. etc. etc.).

 

I just installed OS/X Mavericks 10.9 within WMware 11 (both on Ubuntu 14.04.1 64 bit and Windows 8.1 64 bit) and if there is no immediate problem under the MSFT system (Oops), I already have problems under Linux (I was trully expecting the reverse).

 

But I bothered you enough for now and I'll try to ask for help in the appropriate section such as how to install OS/X directly on a partition of my ASUS Vs. within a VM.

 

All the best to all of you.

 

Happy new year 2015.

 

And BTW, I'm CHARLIE (for ever) :dev:
