This may result in some problems since the Darwin System doesn't work with many hardware configurations. We first tried to install the Apple Darwin 7.0.1 version but this did not worked, then we install the OpenDarwin 7.2.1 version and this worked well.

 

This version can be downloaded from:

http://www.opendarwin.org/downloads/7.2.1/opendarwin-7.2.1.iso.bz2

or

http://mirror.services.wisc.edu/mirrors/apple/darwin/opendarwin/7.2.1/OpenDarwin-7.2.1.iso.bz2

The Installation Instructions for OpenDarwin/x86 are in

The hardware compabilty list is in:
