I have an upcoming Retail install of OSX on my AMD box that I’ll be documenting here as I go…  I will also be installing Vista Ultimate 64 on a second partition and dual booting them using the Chameleon bootloader.

As a precautionary measure I’ve already tested this system’s ability to run OSX using iDeneb v1.4 – please don’t ask for specific details as to where or how, there is plenty of literature online if you search… I’ve already given you a link.  Anyways, now that I know OSX is feasible, I’m going to do it the right way.

I will be learning a lot in the process and hopefully can document it efficiently enough for others to benefit – or if I blow up the whole deal, I can retrace my steps to pick it back up.
