My Dell Mini 10v hackintosh netbook has been updated to Mac OS X 10.6.3. Everything works without any issue. If you’re planning to make the leap to 10.6.3, remember to imstall NetbookInstaller 0.8.4RC1 first before running Software Update. If you face any problems, you can ask for help from the Mac OS X discussion forums on MyDellMini.com.
May your software update goes smoothly.

I made the mistake of allowing my Dell Mini 10v to update to 10.6.3 before installing the newest version of netbookinstaller and now I have a kernel panic on boot. Do you have any suggestions on how to get my computer working again and/or recovering the data from it? Thanks
Hi Phil. There’s a thread at http://www.mydellmini.com/forum/dell-mini-10v-mac-os-x-discussion/20024-dell-10v-update-os-x-10-6-3-problem.html discussing problems related to the 10.6.3 update on the mini 10v. They may have a solution for you.

Maybe some Linux users reading these comments can provide some pointers for Emily.
Hello, I just purchased a Dell Mini 10v. Upgraded to 2GB memory and 320GB HD. I also ordered what I thought to be Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6. When it arrived, I discovered it is Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.3 – Will I have any problems with installing Snow Leopard 10.6.3 prior to having installed 10.6? Help!
Hi Tony, you can check out http://www.mydellmini.com/forum/mac-os-x-development/ for tips or request for help on installing Mac OS X on your Dell Mini 10v. HTH.
Best Linux for that: Ubuntu
Mac 10.6.3 didn’t have a problem using the latest netbook boot maker.
Is the Dell Mini 10v with 2 Gigs of ram and digital TV as Hackintoshable at the standard Dell Mini 10V. Also is it capable of running in 64 bit mode?
The newer Dell Mini 10 with the Atom N450 CPU and Integrated Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 3150 is not a good choice for a hackintosh netbook.

Hi! what do you know about the 10.6.4 update? any issues with it?
I haven’t tried to update to 10.6.4 yet. From what I read at http://www.meklort.com/?p=262#comments, the update is not idiot-proof yet. I’ll wait since I’m happy with 10.6.3.
