I know that the average completion is stuck at 59% or so. I have everything and I'll be seeding all of it in 2 or 3 hours

Seeding all of it at 60KBps. I don't know how long, but at least a day probably.

during the extraction process I get this message from Stuffit Expander that this particular file is missing:
file name mac os x leopard_part001.r00
Anyone know where I can locate this file? thanks

pcwiz - I am trying to complete my download of your vmware image of 10.5.2 Mac OS x. I am basically trying to evaluate 10.5.2 on vmware so i can use my own 10.5.2 purchased cd key and iphone sdk 2.0. I am trying to be one of the (few) XP iphone developers. First question, i am only running on a T4700 chipset and do not have 64 bit capability... is this download a waste of my time, and if not will I be able to run this VMWare on a 32 bit architecture...? Thanks in advance for your hard work in getting some of the windows guys working in 10.5.2.

Try extracting it with a different tool. Try WinRAR on Windows.
hadrianbell,
I don't think 10.5 has a CD key. It can run fine on 32 bit Its slow though, no matter what your hardware is...

Hi bhagiratha,
I have just been informed by pcwiz that there seems to be a problem with unraring the image file.
I would first like to say that there is nothing worng with the files
Second, there is no such file as .r00 in the torrent as all files have the extension .rar.
I hope this helps your problem.

Thanks pcwiz ... I used winrar on a windows machine and it worked fine.
Also, do I use this image on a windows computer running vmware or can I use it on my macbook pro running vmware fusion? thanks

I tried on my mac and it did not work. It starts up, I see the gray background and the Apple logo, but then after a few minutes this "stop" sign icon appears on the apple logo.
On the windows side, since the vmware image files are 64-bit, it does not load up on my Thinkpad X32.
Any other options I can try?
12.Posted by bhagiratha on Apr 06 2008 at 17:37
Ok .correction. I got mac os x working on vmware fusion on the mac. I just needed to give it more time to load up.
On my thinkpad, each time I open the leopard.vmdk file with VMware workstation ACE edition I get this error:
Could not open virtual machine: C:\Mac OS X Leopard\leopard.vmdk.
File "C:\Mac OS X Leopard\leopard.vmdk" line 1: Syntax error.
Any idea what's causing this syntax error?
13.Posted by pcwiz on Apr 06 2008 at 23:11
You are supposed to open the FreeBSD-64bit.vmx file, not the leopard.vmdk file.

Well, it works. But it is very very slow and no internet connection is made. But afterall a pretty good job!

is this the vmware image to run leopard version of mac on windows ???? 
17.Posted by pcwiz on Apr 19 2008 at 02:33
Andreotti there are guides to get Ethernet working on this VM 
neo_aeon, yes this is to run OS X Leopard mac on VMware on Windows (as a virtual machine). It can also be used on VMware for Linux and VMware Fusion for mac itself.

Thanks pcwiz for this image. it works for me on VMware 6.0.3 dell precision 4300.
However, it is very slow and works only with 1024x768 resolution, I found you other article about how to change the resolution but nothing worked. anyway I have another problem. it seems that although pcwiz user is an administrator, there is a problem doing some actions ( like changing the preferences files) or running the installation of the VMtools on the imgae - I get that execution was aborted and that I need to run the script with root priviliges?!?!?
Any advice?
Thanks
Yaniv

Works like a charm! Is it possible for the screen to calibrate itself to fit my own screen resolution. In "full screen mode" it's just a square with black borders, and there doesnt seem to have any options, other than 1024x768...i'm running on 1680x1050. Thanks.

neo_aeon,
Unzip part 1 with WinRAR and the rest automatically unzip themselves.

hi... i downloaded it from another source.. i think its the same file
it doesnt work on 32bit computers...
this is the error i get:
*** VMware Player internal monitor error (bug 9297) ***
The guest operating system you are running is using the Physical Address Extension (PAE) processor option. For more information about
running PAE-enabled guest operating systems, please consult http://www.vmware.com/info?id=28
do you have any solution or a 32bit version of leopard?

on vmware virtual machine 6, intel core 2 duo with VT.
for network: bridged.
network patch(1.0 does not work), I've used:
http://video.paulooi.com/Maxxuss-AMDPCNET-v1.0_1043.zip
used sudo ./load.sh
password is: pcwiz
I get a successful load.
I did not tried the persistent option used sudo ./install.sh yet.
vmware nic conf:
ethernet0.present = "TRUE"
ethernet0.virtualDev = "e1000"
ethernet0.wakeOnPcktRcv = "FALSE"
ethernet0.addressType = "generated"
ethernet0.pciSlotNumber = "34"
ethernet0.generatedAddress = "00:0c:29:7c:3b:00"
ethernet0.generatedAddressOffset = "0"
I have local and Internet connectivity.
Runs quite slow though.

How can i run this VM on my mac?
I have VMWare fusion and when i try to run this image, it tells me a kernel stack thing happened and i must reset the guest os
How can i boot this image?

PC Wiz,
I installed this on a Dell Dimension which has an Intel Pro 1000 PL card. I've tried Bridged and NAT mode, but no luck to get internet working. Everything else is fine though...
Is it possible to get it working or do you just do without?
Thanks!
M.
