What about iBook G4? iBooks also have ATI Radeon graphics... MOS works on iBooks?

The dual boot option is unofficial, however this guide by jacadcaps should help:

Very nice guide by jacadcaps.  I'll be putting it to use tomorrow.:)

Any chance this would run on an 1.42ghz eMac?  It has the exaclt same specs as the 1.42ghz mac mini, except it has the build in monitor.

No, the 1.42GHz eMac has an ATI Radeon 9600 graphics card in it which is not supported by MorphOS2.4, AFAIK.

The 1.25GHz eMac does appear to have a supported ATI Radeon 9200 graphics card though, so maybe someone can test an installation of MorphOS2.4 on one of those and report back their results.

Whats a good price for a mini ?
 
I am currently bidding on 1.   Put a top bid in for £150.   Its just the base.  Got an airport card anf 512mb of ram. IS this a good price ?

Just in case anyone is interested I'm going to be supplying checked/cleaned (inside & out) mac mini's with MorphOS2.4 & OS X dual boot ready installed.  I'm doing this as a sort of service to the community so I'm not trying to make a profit just cover my costs.
Next week I should have three 1.25ghz models ready to go at about £150 each.  All have original boxes, manuals etc. and two of them even have the extra outer box as well.

Congratulations to the MorphOS team. This one was HUGE! I went out and bought a PPC mac mini this morning! And of course, I will sell my Peg I now...

Nice! Thanks, Team!

I can confirm that it doesn't serendipitously work on a 1.67GHz PowerBook G4 (hangs at Quark/OpenFirmware). Anyone got a spare iBook G4 they can try it on?

I'd really like to know what future developments are planned for Mac support. My Pegasos is fried and I'm wondering if I should try to get it fixed, or invest in a Mac. I'm not thrilled about the prospect of a downgrade to 64MB of video RAM (or less), so if PowerBook support is in the cards... that'd be cool.


Matt,

No dice on my G4 1ghz ibook. will not go past open firmware.

Thats great news for Morph but I hope they also go intel. This will be a lifeboat to keep them afloat for a little longer, but they need more hardware to survive.
 
Watch now the prices of mac mini's on ebay will skyrocket I bet!
