HCL 10.7 Seeds

From OSx86
Jump to: navigation, search

This is a component level hardware compatibility list for pre-release versions of Apple's Mac OS X Lion. As this is not the final release, compatibility may change throughout the builds, so please, do not rely on this list when buying hardware. It is for those who wish to share/experiment with pre-release versions of the OS. Add which parts you have working in the categories listed below, or create a new category. Please keep alphabetical order inside the categories. The categories themselves are ordered by popularity. Please list any caveats or problems as well.

  • ONLY add hardware that you have TESTED. Don't add hardware just because you think it might work.
  • Please add hardware into tables.
  • This is for pre-release 10.7 builds only.

For how to edit the Wiki, please see this thread. Thank you!
