Patch to install MAC OSX on a 32-bit PC?

[oldscool63]

Hey, gang.

Not sure if this belongs here, sorry if it doesn't.

My MacBook has seen better days and I'm gonna get a ProBook next year.

In the meantime, I want to have a back up.

Is there a patch out there that will allow me to install Snow Leopard on a 32-bit laptop PC? I already have iBoot, but the Dell Latitude D830 I just got only likes 32 bits.

I want a MAC OSX only laptop...no plans to run Windoze at all, so virtual machine here!

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Snow Leopard runs just fine on 32-bit only computers.

Hmmm...I get the kernel panic when I try it.

Maybe you can explain?

Thanks!

The lower end first gen Intel Mac Mini and some other early Intell based Macs had 32-bit Core Solos and Duos in them.

Cool...thanks.

I'll try it again and will give a full report.

Appreciate the response.
