Mac OSX on ESXi/ESX 4.0 server
Update: See here
I was finally able to run MAC OSX 10.5.6 on ESXi server using Xelabos 10.5.5 VMWare image which can be found in usual places, think green :). After using the Converter Standalone Client you have to delete the existing network card and add E1000 card. Everything should work. To install iPhoto 09 and Safari 4:
If you don’t have 10.5.6 and you don’t want to upgrade do this :
Go to /system/library/coreservice/SystemVersion.plist Edit this files :
ProductBuild
Version 9E17
ProductCopyright
1983-2008 Apple Inc.
ProductName
Mac OS X
ProductUserVisibleVersion
10.5.6
ProductVersion
10.5.6
after that install Security Update 2009-001
and after
Go to /system/library/coreservice/SystemVersion.plist Edit this files :
ProductBuild
Version 9E17
ProductCopyright
1983-2008 Apple Inc.
ProductName
Mac OS X

Notice the changes.
Enjoy OSX in VMWARE ESXi/ESX server.
There is a way to have OSX Server running, I was only able to install up to 10.5.4 Version, but there is an image floating around with 10.5.6 install of OSX Server.

EFiX to kill OSX86 Community or make it EASY for everyone ?
Well there is a new company called EFiX which promises to deliver EFI on USB system that will allow us to use regular OSX DVD to install on Intel based PCs. Now the questions are how does this work, what systems would it work on, will it be available in US and how much is this thing ? Netkas has a video on his site.
