Where did you get your license for Mac OS X on the mini-note?

mikez - lol, didn't you get the memo about HP offering OSX since the mini-note is silver? :wink:

konax - the OQO users are probably hacking the Mac OS install discs to load it with support from other members of a particular project (which will remain nameless). It's NOT supported by anyone other than yourself, and as mikez mentioned, it's also against Apple's licensing policy to load OSX on non-Apple hardware. If that project still exists anymore, you'll get better support for your "activities" on their forums.

i'm interested in instaling mac os on hp2133 too.
also i have a licence mac os 10.4.6 tiger on disk
there are lot of hackintosh os installed on netbooks, but our mini-note has rare CPU via c7-m. I haven't seen mac os x pacthed for that processor. and it's very sad =(
but a read about men installed mac os on hp2133, and saw video on youtube, but i cound't find it

PS sorry for my english too, because i'me from russia =)

Now all you have to do is install the sse3 instruction set in the c7-m silicon (its missing or different).
Adding the pae address handling will also be helpful (its missing).

This has been going around for quite some time and there has been LOTS of talk about it. In short: There is NO way to install Mac on a 2133! The video (I've seen it quite a while ago) must be faked because I [k]no[w] of NO ONE that has ever gotten it to work (and I know LOTS who have tried!).

It's called the 2140 HD. Same resolution, same features, same finish, smaller, lighter, and it doesn't come with any of those dopey commercials.

as far as i know, underattacker (boostedboogie on this forum i think) managed to get OSX running on his 2133. he mentioned using essentially the same tutorial as he did with an EEE pc to get it running, but didn't detail any tutorial.

that being said, i think he did manage to get wifi and sound working, but was stuck with VESA drivers because there is no driver for the VIA graphics card.

i think it might break the webcam and card reader too, but don't quote me on that. I personally never got past the iDeneb boot screen and gave up after a while. I believe it is possible to get OSX on the 2133 with some shoe-horning. I'm just now sure if anyone else has done it or whether the process is worth the trouble to have been detailed out online.

try www.underattacker.com for his blog posts on getting OSX on the 2133. another point of reference is the OQO2 forum where they managed to get OSX running on essentially the same hardware (Via 1.2ghz chrome9 graphics) as the 2133. Both these methods still limit the laptop to non-native VESA resolution.

And that´s the point! I´ve installed OS X several times on Eee PC, Aspire Pne and other netbooks with Atom cpu and Intel chipset. Tried several approaches to get OS X booting on a 2133 but no way. You may say seeing is believing but boostedboogie or underattacker or what the h.. this guys name is showed us some pictures that can bei photoshopped as well 8)
