For PowerPC G5 processors or G3 processors, replace the line where it says "dev /cpus/PowerPC,g...@0" to your processor type "dev /cpus/PowerPC,g...@0" or to "dev /cpus/PowerPC,g...@0", depending on your processor type. For dual core cpu's, type in this: dev /cpus/PowerPC,g...@0 d# 2500000000 encode-int " clock-frequency" property dev /cpus/PowerPC,g...@1 d# 2500000000 encode-int " clock-frequency" property boot This command will fool the installer into thinking you have a dual core 2.5Ghz CPU.
