Hackintosh not updated to 10.5.4

I haven’t managed to update my Hackintosh to 10.5.4, unfortunately.

It would appear that it didn’t like the update, and i’ve now been reduced to a non-working Hackintosh.

So a word of warning. Always check updates before you use them, because otherwise your Hackintosh might not work.

I dropped my iPhone.

It’s fine.

It was dropped 3 feet onto concrete.

Only a slight dent on the metal backplate.

At least it survived.

Latest Quote: The Crazy Ones.

This was once in an Apple ad campaign. I’m not fully sure of the origin.

T-Mobile, please stop lying to me.

So as i said before, i have managed to borrow a wireless modem while i’m moving house. However, due to the package i was on, it was going to cost £4 a day.

Previously, when moving house, i had used a T-Mobile wireless card, and only paid £1 a day. So i thought i must need a different SIM card for a different package.

I went to the local T-Mobile shop. Upon asking the person at the desk for a £1 a day SIM for a modem, i was told that i could either have a contract one, at £15 a month for 18 months, or a PAYG one, at £4 a day.

Hackintosh: The Definitive Guide (ish)

So when i was looking for details about Hackintosh, there were no good guides. There were guides, of course, but they just didn’t offer a simple way to see what to do. So the obvious list of what to do is:

  1. Get a copy of Hackintosh. Only after you’ve bought a legal version of the Mac OS, of course.
  2. Put Hackintosh disc in machine.
  3. Install Hackintosh.
  4. ???
  5. Profit.
