Mac OS X has been already been running on non-Apple computers before with the help of some tricks, but today we’re showing you an impressive port a developers has reported on tonymacx86. Who has been able to run OS X Lion 10.7.2 on his Samsung Series 7 Slate, or he calls it now “HacPro Touch”. The point is that an external monitor such as a TV is needed to run Lion successfully.
Before you go through we’d like to warn you that messing with the inner workings of any devices is a complex process that requires at least a basic understanding of computer software and programming. The port is also a work in progress, currently only allowing Lion to be booted from the USB drive. Proceed at your own risk.
What you require to repeat the process with your own Samsung slate, read now:
In order to get started you’ll need an 8GB (minimum size) USB Lion key. This requires a purchased copy of the OS X Lion software and the UniBeast utility, which you can download here. The download page may require a sign up for an account at tonymacx86.com for the download link to work. Once downloaded, now create the USB key by just following the instructions found here. Make sure to also create a second folder on your USB drive with the downloaded MultiBeast file as well. And need it to configure audio options later.
