Hi all
i'm trying to make it work.
The Tiger is installed as guest in a Intel based PC.
The problems are:
- no ethernet card recognised (Intel Marvell Yukon 88E8056 PCI-E
Gigabit), tried as Bridged or NAT
- display allows only 1024*768 size, tried specifying 1 monitor at
1680*1050 resolution

Solutions?

Thanks for answers

What did you do to OSX to allow it to boot in the VM?

It expects EFI and the VM has a BIOS.

I daresay your video and Ethernet problems are because the devices are
VMware emulations and OSX is expecting very specific devices thanks to
Apple's hardware lock-in. Your actual video and ethernet cards have no
relevance here.

So you may be stuck, sorry.
