What I used

  • a PC with a Intel CPU, one Hard Disk.
  • iATKOS v1.0i DVD (we can download it from minivoa and burn it)
  • Windows XP install CD
  • PQ Magic (already in the Windows install CD)

Installation

  • Make 2 partitions on the Hard Disk, say disk0s1 and disk0s2. Active the first one.
  • Install Windows XP on disk0s1.
  • Boot with PQ magic CD, active disk0s2.
  • Boot with iATKOS DVD
  • After seen the Mac OS Welcome screen, do not click Agree, click Utilities > Disk Utilities on the Apple bar at the top of screen.
  • Select the partition disk0s2, change the format of this partition and erase it. Quit Disk Utilities.
  • Go back to the Apple menu bar and select Utilities > Darwin_Boot
  • Type Y (yes) to contitue, type 1 for Hard Disk number, type 2 for the partition number, so that's disk0s2.
  • Type Y to install boot efi if the CPU is Intel Dual Core. Quit Darwin_boot if no error message.
  • Read the Terms & Conditions for iATKOS v1.0i and click Agree.
  • Select packages you want to install, I only select
MBIOS.KEXT.NETKES
REMOTE.APPLE.NEL.CPU.POWER.Management.KEXT 
and driver for the graphic card. I didn't select a driver for network card.
  • Now the installation of Leopard begins, it needs 20-30 min. After all of these, you can use Leopard, but you can not get into Windows XP.

Dual Boot of Leopard and XP

  • Boot with PQ Magic, active the disk0s1 which has Windows XP installed
  • Reboot, and log in the Windows XP
  • Copy CHAIN0 from iATKOS DVD to the root of disk0s1
  • Edit boot.ini, put one line at the end of the file:
C:\chain0="Mac OS X Leopard"
  • Reboot, now you have a menu with two options, one is Windows, one is the Leopard, after selected Leopard, you have to click F8 to enter the system.

Done!

Caution

  • Don't change Hard Disk Partition Map with Disk Utilities (from iATKOS DVD), Disk Utilities can only be use to change the partition format and erase partition.
  • If one operation system can not be booted (like the blink cursor error), normally you need to active the partition of system.

Other things

  • If you don't have PQ magic, it's also ok, you can type some commands mentioned in other manual.
