It’s basically impossible, usually, to install versions of the OS earlier than what a Mac shipped with. I believe you answered your own question in the original post. I normally completely erase my laptop but I don’t want to do that to the iMac. That’s just how it works, and I see nothing unfair about it: I can do whatever I want with my stuff, but the companies that make my stuff have no obligation to provide support and working updates for uses and modifications they never intended.Can the problem be that I am booting into El Cap on the iMac and trying to install from there? Maybe I need to make a bootable USB drive. That’s the trade-off – just like with my hacked Wii I have every right to hack my system, but I can’t then expect Nintendo to support it and I must to wait on updates until I can confirm they’re ok. If you don’t mind saving some money and making a custom system at the cost of having to use hacks and be wary of updates, then build a hackintosh.

If you want a fully supported Mac system, then buy it from Apple.

If you want a hackintosh safe from being broken in an update (and that you know will have drivers, etc.), then use the same hardware that apple uses/has used.

If apple can do something to break compatibility with non-supported hardware, they have every right to (and if you can find a hack or mod that brings support back or works around it, you have every right to). WTF? …Also, to add to hackintosh’s post – while apple has no legal right to stop an individual from making a hackintosh, an individual has no legal right to make apple support it. Why does every article on this reverse position? Originally everyone said support was dropped, then I read the newer build brought back atom compatibility, then I read it was just some dumbass who messed up his hackintosh install and atom compatibility was never lost in the first place, and now this. Update 2: And now you can see the endless reboot cycle for yourself thanks to molder. Update: In case you were wondering what kind of errors you would get if you did try installing OS X 10.6.2 on a netbook, MyDellMini forum member Crisu reports that the computer fails to boot and then tries rebooting… over and over again. But for right now, if you have OS X installed on your netbook, you’ll probably want to hold off on downloading the update. It’s very possible, (perhaps even inevitable) that sooner or later a hacker will figure out some way to modify the OS to support Atom powered netbooks. But it looks like the final build that was released today falls into the not-working category. There had been some reports over the past week or so that pre-release builds of OS X 10.6.2 did or didn’t work with Atom. But Atom compatibility is clearly not a high priority for Apple since the company doesn’t make any products that use the processor. It’s not clear whether Apple would have intentionally broken Atom support in this release to discourage people from installing the operating system on netbooks.
