LeopardAssist assists in the process of install OS X Leopard on machines that did not meet the minimum system requirement of an 867MHz or faster processor. It achieves this by temporarily writing a script into the NVRAM of your G4-based Mac. Executed at startup, this script will temporarily force the system to report that a faster processor is installed, allowing the Leopard installer to successfully complete its minimum system requirements check. This allows Leopard to be installed from unmodified installation media or another bootable device. LeopardAssist handles the interaction with Open Firmware, specifying the target processor speed, the number of physical processors in the system, the desired boot device and any additional startup flags to simplify the installation and configuration process.

OneClickKIck can also be integrated with FreeIPA (www.freeipa.org) to allow adding and modifying hosts directly in IPA.

You might want to run a program/file automatically when you log into your Windows account! There are two ways to do this: - Put your file into startup folder - Add a "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" registry key that points to your file Adding registry keys are head scratching if you aren't familiar with your way, but luckily Registry Startup is here to save the day! Simply drag and drop the file to be launched into the input bar, and you'll be able to add or remove registry keys easily! NOTE: Due to how Windows handle this registry keys, you shouldn't move your file after creating the key. Doing so will break the link. You can remove your registry first, then move your file. Recreate registry as necessary. If you like Registry Startup, please consider donating ;) http://www.misc314.com/blog/donation/ Thanks!
