Here is a complete guide to install Mac OSX Leopard 10.5.1 (9B18) on your PC, in just one step that is as easy as it could possibly get. Just pop in the DVD and you are good to go, running Leopard in no time, with all the 300+ features at your fingertips.

This is a one step process that almost anybody in this world would be able to follow.
Here are the basic requirements for you to proceed with the installation of Leopard :
A Blank DVD-R to burn the ISO.
This is a special ISO of Leopard and you can learn more about it from here (http://iatkos.wikidot.com/)
Now lets proceed with the installation of Leopard. Before that here are few conditions your CPU must satisfy to use this installation method.
Non Core Intel Processors, no PC-EFI for you.
Core Based Processors, for PC-EFI to work.
AMD processors are not supported at this time.
Ok now, lets proceed with the installation :
Step 1: Installing Leopard
Download the Installation ISO from internet. You can find it by performing a search for iATKOS 5i OSx86 10.5.5download.
Once you are done, with downloading burn the ISO at very slow speeds to the DVD.
Pop in the DVD and boot into it from BIOS and follow the Onscreen Instructions.
Select the Appropriate Packages, based on your hardware and then proceed.
Installation might take about an hour or so, so grab yourself a cup of coffee while you install Leopard.
Step 2: Done
Didn’t I say it was a one step installation process. Yes it really was.. Congratulations you’ve done it.
That’s it for now. I will be updating this post in the future, when the AMD patch is released. If you have any questions, please drop in a comment.
As I have been asked several times now to detail the installation here are the steps I have taken, one by one:
OS in Dual Boot: Iatkos 10.5.5i and Windows XP Pro 32-bit or VISTA 32-bit
TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
Installation steps: (some of these things are given but I'll explain it like everyone's 5 - we also take it that Windows is already installed on your machine)
Installing Iatkos 10.5.5i
1. Download Acronis Disk Director Suite v. 10 and Kext Helper b7 while in XP (put kext helper on a portable device)
2. Reboot comp and insert Iatkos 10.5.5i disk into the CDRom
3. Boot the disk and once it finishes loading click Utilities/Disk Utility
4. Select the drive (in my case) or create a partition using MBR
a) MBR is in options under the big partition box on the left side
5. Click ok and when the operation is complete, close the window
6. Accept agreement and click CUSTOMIZE in the lower left corner
7. The settings I used for installation were:
a) Iatkos Main System
b) PC EFI v 9
c) AppleDecrypt
d) Disable.kext
e) OHR
f) EFI String for your Graphic Card (in my case NVIDIA)
g) Intel AHCI Sata
8. Install and answer questions; after the installation remove the OS X disc and reboot (OS X should auto-restart the comp)
9. Windows XP should then boot automatically (no option to dual boot as yet)
Back to Xp OS:
10. In Windows XP, install Acronis Disk Director Suite
11. Reboot, then install the Acronis OS Selector (in Start/Programs etc)
12. Reboot and this time the options will show up (XP is shown but OS X says "undefined OS")
13. Right click Undefined OS and rename OS X
14. Double click OS X and it will boot.
Done.
