Mac Pro to Go Beyond OS X Lion by Robert Bryant explains how to change the boot. OS X 1. 0. 8 Mountain Lion and later. What You Need to Know. If you want to go beyond OS X 1. Lion, the first thing you should do is apply the EFI update mentioned directly above. If you are running any Power. PC only software, think long and hard before going beyond OS X 1. Snow Leopard, the last version of OS X to include Rosetta support for Power. PC apps. If you have Office v. X, Office 2. 00. 4, Apple. Works, etc., it may make good economic sense to stick with Snow Leopard rather and have to replace Office or whatever. Apple. Works has no replacement. If your 2. Mac Pro has just 1 GB of system memory, upgrade immediately. You will get okay performance from OS X 1. Tiger or 1. 0. 5 Leopard with 1 GB, but 2 GB is better and RAM must be upgraded in matched pairs. As of August 2. 01. GB from Other World Computing for 5. GB for 8. 5. For low end users this should be plenty, but power users can go as high as 3. GB. A 2. 50 GB SATA Rev. TB drives start at 6. August 2. 01. 4, and for a serious speed boost  like starting up twice as fast  Other World Computing offers a 4. GB solid state drive SSD for just 5. Finally, you can upgrade to a faster, more powerful Socket 7. CPU, but that goes way beyond the scope of this page. Intel based Macs use a partitioning scheme known as GPT. Only Macintel models can boot from GPT hard drives. Both Power. PC and Intel Macs can boot from APM Apples old partitioning scheme hard drives, which is the format you must use to create a universal boot drive in Leopard. Power PC Macs running any version of the Mac OS prior to 1. GPT volumes. Power. PC Macs wont let you install OS X to a USB drive or choose it as your startup volume, although there is a work around for that. Detailsannounced 2. GHz CPUs, 1 GB RAM, 2. GB hard drive, Nvidia Ge.
