Hack brings 10.6.2 back to Atom processors
Remember last week, when the net was abuzz with the news that the Mac OS X 10.6.2 update broke notebooks with Atom processors? Well, given the first syllable of the word "hackintosh" it's little surprise that that state of affairs has changed. The release of a newly-hacked kernel claims to allow the Snow Leopard to roam freely off of the Apple steppes.
Netbook hackers take note: this is not a point-and-click operation; you'll need to roll up your Terminal sleeves for a few simple steps here. And, of course, replace the kernel of your operating system—the fundamental code that underlies everything else in Mac OS X—with a file you've downloaded from the Internet. Written by a guy whose blog is in Russian. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I just wanted to point out the Frankenstein allegories involved here; this is "new brain" stuff.
