Tiger to Leopard Upgrade on PPC
Anyone upgraded OSX from Tiger (v 10.4.11) to Leopard (v. 10.5.8) on PowerPC G5 hardware?
I need to upgrade my iMac to Leopard so I can install the current version of Eclipse and the Android development plug-in for Eclipse. I can't find a way to get this working on Tiger, so I need up upgrade to Leopard.
The Android SDK is not supported on PPC, but the Android Eclipse plug-in should work, I hope!

Are Mac OS X 10.4.11 Tiger passwords only stored in /var/db/shadow/hash? Or is it also used in NetInfo?
The reason I am asking is because I wonder if I edit the file in /var/db/shadow/hash and replace the hash inside with my own, will it change the password?
Thanks. (0 Replies)
