    • ]]>     While waiting for my Dell Mini 10v to arrive, I’ve already completed my research on how to install Mac OS X ‘Snow Leopard’ on it.

    Here’s the list of items required for installing ‘Snow Leopard’ on the Dell Mini 10v.

    1. netbook-installer
    2. Mac OS X 10.6 ‘Snow Leopard’ retail DVD
    3. 8GB USB thumb drive
    4. An existing Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6 machine
    5. Dell Mini 10v Bios version A04. Get this from dell support site.

    The thumb drive is used as the installation dongle according to the netbook-installer’s how-to guide.  A Mac OS X machine is required to create the installation dongle. I’ll be using my current MacBook for that purpose. The steps looks simple enough. It should a straight forward installation when the laptop arrives. :-)

    The Dell Mini 10v ships with Bios version A06. This will cause the Snow Leopard installation to stop midway with a message to reboot the laptop. This message will reappear again during the installation process after rebooting the laptop, unless you downgrade the Bios to version A04.

    Do you have a hackintosh laptop? What installation method did you use?
