To install Mavericks, you need: 1. A preexisting Mac or Hackintosh 2. 8GB+ USB Flash Drive 3. Guide- OS X 10.9 on Dell Inspiron 530/530s and Vostro 200/400.

This is an update to my previous guide. I’ve since changed platform for my site — and even changed computers — but there is enough interest in this guide to warrant a re-write, so here we go.

I’m going to be walking you through installing Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.4 on your Dell Inspiron 1525. The configuration of your Inspiron 1525 might differ from mine, but generally most of the hardware will be the same.

My hardware is as follows:

Just to clarify: you'll need a 16 GB USB drive in order to create a Catalina installation drive.And of course, you need a Mac (or a fully-functioning hackintosh). There are ways to create the installer without a Mac (heck, I don't own a Mac, too) and some of them don't even involve downloading illegal copies of macOS, but it's up to you if you really need an installer without a Mac.

OS X Snow Leopard retail DVD

I’m not going to support installing with hacked/prepackaged non-Apple DVDs. There might be working methods for those, but it won’t be covered here.

Boot-132 CD (from here)
A couple of hours of free time

A good install will take less than an hour, but you’ll most likely want to tweak things after your install is done.

Some patience

Let’s begin

Backup your files
Burn your Boot-132 CD
Setup BIOS settings
Boot the installer
Install
Post-installation configuration and finishing

Backup your files

This is the most important step I guess. This install will wipe everything from the internal hard disk drive inside your Inspiron, so make sure you’ve backed up anything that you want to keep before continuing.

Most Inspirons come with a hard disk smaller than 500GB, so you could easily pick up a 500GB or greater sized external hard disk, and backup all of your stuff to that.

Burn your Boot-132 CD

The Boot-132 CD is the best way to boot a retail Snow Leopard DVD on your Dell, it uses the Chameleon boot loader, a DSDT.aml and Kexts for the Inspiron 1525 hardware to allow the Snow Leopard DVD to boot.

I’m not going to walk you through burning an ISO to CD, but you can use Imgburn, Nero, Disk Utility, or any other ISO burning software.

I’ve done this using a CD-RW, CD-R and even a DVD, so you should have no problem finding some compatible disc to burn the ISO to.

Download the Boot-132 from macyourpc.com here - http://www.macyourpc.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/BootSLv3wifi.iso

Setup BIOS settings

For whatever reason, you may have your BIOS configured in a weird way. If you’ve currently got Windows XP on your Inspiron 1525, you might not have AHCI enabled for your hard disk drive.

Boot your Inspiron while pressing the F2 key repeatedly, until you are greeted by the BIOS menu.

First you will want to reset the BIOS to default settings, to do this, go to:

Maintenance
- Load Defaults = Continue

Below is a list of the important settings in the BIOS, which have worked for me, these should be the default settings:

Onboard Devices
- External USB ports = Enabled
- Media Card and 1394 = Enabled
- SATA Operation = AHCI
- Module Bay Device = Enabled
- Flash Cache Module = Enabled
Performance
- Multi Core Support = Enabled
- Dynamic Acceleration = Enabled
- SpeedStep Enable = Enabled
Power Management
- USB Wake Support = Off
POST Behaviour
- USB Emulation = Enabled

When you’re finished here, press Esc to exit and choose Save/Exit.

Boot the installer

After this is all setup, you can go on and insert the Boot-132 CD that you burned earlier, restart your Inspiron and press F12 for the boot menu, then select your DVD drive to boot. After a moment you should see the Chameleon menu.

Wait until the DVD drive stops spinning to make sure Chameleon has fully loaded, then eject your Boot-132 CD and insert the Snow Leopard DVD.

Press F5 and wait for Chameleon to finish refreshing the available bootable devices.

Select “Mac OS X Install DVD” and then type the following (this part is actully optional, and depends entirely on your hardware setup. If you’ve got the same CPU/RAM as me, this will work for you):

You will see the text appear in the bottom-left corner of the screen. Once you’ve typed it, just press Enter, and wait for the DVD to finish loading.

These are boot flags, they tell Chameleon how to boot the Installer. You will also need to use these later, so I’ll explain what they mean (chameleon docs):

You will see lots of text scroll past on the screen, don’t panic if it pauses for a little while.

After a minute or two the Snow Leopard installer should have booted.

Install

The installer is pretty straightforward, so I don’t think I need to go into too much detail here. The important things are the partitioning of your hard disk, and for speed of the install, removing packages.

Partitioning

On the Menu Bar at the top of the screen click Utilities and then select Disk Utility.

Installing Hackintosh On Dell Inspiron 530

In the window that opens, select your hard disk drive from the left pane, then on the right side click the Partition Principia: master of science download. tab.

IMPORTANT — MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SELECTED THE CORRECT HARD DRIVE, THE NEXT STEPS WILL ERASE ALL DATA FROM THE HARD DRIVE

Under Volume Scheme: select ‘1 Partition’, or as many as you would like to have. For each partition, you will need to fill in the Name: field on the right, and select a format (Mac OS Extended (Journaled) is what you will need for the partition you’re installing to)

Click the Options… button at the bottom of the window, and make sure GUID Partition Table is selected.

When you’re done here, press the Apply button to begin partitioning. You can now close the Disk Utility when you are finished.

Continuing with the installer

After you’ve finished partitioning, you will be taken back to the Mac OS X Installer. Click Continue, and then agree to the software license agreement.

On the next screen, select the hard drive you just formatted and click Customize. You can untick all of these extra options, unless you require extra languages/fonts/printer drivers. Not installing these will save loads of time.

When you’re done deselecting packages you can press Install.

At this point all you can do is wait, so I suggest getting a coffee or something.

When the install has finished (and you’ve hopefully got a nice I
