Installing on Mac OS X

headers Peter W A Wood | 2 Sep 2008 01:03 · /Developer/

A book like The Visual QuickPro Guide to Unix for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger  
or Mac OS X Tiger in a Nutshell is more likely to answer the questions  
you are asking at the moment than a Mac OS X book. I don't think that  
either of the books has been updated for OS X 10.5 yet. This shouldn't  
be a big problem as I don't think that anything much changed at the  
Unix level between the two OS versions.

Regards

Peter
