so right now that's the only thing that i'm not sure about.Īnd KnottyMan how does OS 10.1 run? do you use it to run IE and itunes? or only for a server. If my My 604e is not a Mac that OS X runs on, how can i start off the cd? the installer from what i have read works in a small OS X not from a OS 9 system folder. Right now the only thing that i'm worryed about is the OS 10.1 CD starting up ok and installing with out any hickup's. The last thing i want is for my mac to stuff up to the point where i can't go back to OS 9.1 if this all doesn't work (which i do hope it does). So far OS 9 boot's OK off the card with OS 9.1 so i'm hopeing that OS 10.1 will too.Īs for dl the update's he put's up of his site, i do when they are not Beta's any more.as beta's still have bugs in them and i don't want to use my mac to test out his app. Well KnottyMan i have a slower system than you it's a Powermac 7300/180 with 128mb of ram and a Acard for my IDE 20GB hard drive. My dualie 604 card only runs one CPU in OSX and stretching the windows is pretty pokey with that Control video chipset. Now I just need some more CPU and video power. I needed Installer updated before I could even see 10.1.3 in the list of available updates.īut I progressed through them all and it works great! I'm glad I have DSL.Ĭertain things are required to be installed for other things to show up in the list. Rebooted into OS9.1 and ran XPF again, but this time pointed it to my 10.1 upgrade CD.īooted into OSX and it showed as 10.1 and proceeded to run Software update like a madman. Software update said only 10.0.4 was available. Installed from 10.0.3 CD to a clean 3Gb HFS+ partition.īooted into OSX just fine. Started with fresh install of OS9, updated to 9.1. I just went through the process of installing my 8500 to the most recent I could get of OSX and I'm sitting at 10.1.4 with Software update saying there ain't no more. Hey frank, yes this app does work and it does get updated fairly often too. So people i'm new here, give me all of the feedback you can as to how i can make this all work, i don't want to crash in os 9 anymore and os 10.1 looks like it's for me. If you know anyone that has used this app and used 10.1 on a 604e PLEASE post about it here.įor anyone that want's to see this guy's web site go here: Does it work? And for users that have OS X on there G4's how can i make OS 10.1 run faster.is there things i can trun off to make it run faster? Now I want to try OS 10.1 on my Mac but i would like someone's feedback as to how it runs with this app. Mac OS X 10.1 actually feels fairly useable with a 200 MHz 604e." my impression is that the performance of OS X is somewhat slower than the performance you would expect from supported computers with a similar processor, but it is in the same ballpark. This is from his web site, about how it runs on a 604e, But as i said before someone is useing this app for this guy to update it every new OS X that comes out. Now I know people will start saying it will run slow on a 604e. It's XPostFacto and this app edit's some files in Mac OS X so it runs on a 604e PowerMacs. I know someone has used this app or else the guy wouldn't keep updateing it.
