How to Install & Dual Boot Mac OS X 10.7 Lion and 10.6 Snow Leopard How to Install & Dual Boot Mac OS X 10.7 Lion and 10.6 Snow Leopard Mac OS X 10.7 can be installed and ran alongside Mac OS X 10.6 on the same drive, all you need to do is partition your existing boot disk and I’m going to show you exactly how to do this in a step-by-step guide Now I’m going to assume you already have Mac OS X 10.7 Lion downloaded or on a USB thumb drive and ready to go, and that you’re currently running Mac OS X 10.6. Important: Make sure you have a backup of your existing Mac OS X installation disk before continuing with this guide. Any time you edit a drives partition table or install a new operating system there is always a small chance something could go wrong, so just be safe and have a backup ready. Let’s get started! 1) Create a partition for Mac OS X Lion You can create a new partition on your hard drive with Disk Utility, this does not require you to reformat the drive and you should not lose any data (besides, you have that backup just in case something goes wrong, right?). Launch Disk Utility Select your hard drive from the left hand side Click on the “Partition” tab at the top Click on the “+” icon to add a new partition, name it ‘Lion’, or chimichanga, or whatever you want Set the partition size for Lion, I chose 20GB to make it easy Click on ‘Apply’ to create the new partition, and you’ll see a message like this one: Click on “Partition” to create the partitions as indicated You’ll now see two partitions on your boot drive in Disk Utility, one that has your existing operating system (Mac OS X 10.6) and the newly created “Lion” partition, which is where you will install Mac OS X 10.7. It will look something like this: Now that you have the partitions squared away, we’re on to step 2. 2) Install Mac OS X 10.7 Lion on the new partition Now it’s time to install 10.7. The key here is to install Lion on the newly created partition and not the default which is atop 10.6. This is what will enable you to dual boot between 10.7 and 10.6: Launch the Mac OS X 10.7 Installer and when it asks what drive to install on, choose the options to specify your own At the “Install Mac OS X” screen, click to select the partition that you created in Step 1, I named it Lion as you can see in this screenshot: Click on “Install” and let the installer do it’s business Once the installer is running, you’ll see a screen like this: Just let this be as it runs. You’ll see a preparation window and then your Mac will reboot into the full installer. Due to the fact that you are installing from your local disk or USB thumb drive to another partition, the whole process is much faster than it would be to install from a DVD. On my MacBook Air 11″ the entire Lion installation took about 15 minutes. When Lion is finished installing, your Mac will now automatically boot into 10.7. 3) Set your default boot drive: Mac OS X 10.7 Lion or 10.6 Snow Leopard Now that Lion is installed, your default boot drive is set to 10.7. You can adjust this to be 10.6 too: Launch System Preferences Click on “Startup Disks” Select your default boot drive and operating system That’s really all there is to it. 4) Dual Booting: Select which Mac OS X volume to load on boot If you want to boot into a different Mac OS X installation than the one that is set as your default in the previous step, you can hold down the Option key during reboot. You will then see a boot loader like the image at the very top of this tutorial, where you will select the Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard system when you want to run your Violette Learning Company programs. .

    MARA PREDATOR CONSERVATION PROGRAMME QUARTERLY REPORT JULY - SEPT 2018 MARA PREDATOR CONSERVATION PROGRAMME Q3 REPORT 2018 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY During this quarter we started our second lion & cheetah survey of 2018, making it our 9th consecutive time (2x3 months per year) we conduct such surveys. We have now included Enoonkishu Conservancy to our study area. It is only when repeat surveys are conducted over a longer period of time that we will be able to analyse population trends. The methodology we use to estimate densities, which was originally designed by our scientific associate Dr. Nic Elliot, has been accepted and adopted by the Kenya Wildlife Service and will be used to estimate lion densities at a national level. We have started an African Wild Dog baseline study, which will determine how many active dens we have in the Mara, number of wild dogs using them, their demographics, and hopefully their activity patterns and spatial ecology. A paper detailing the identification of key wildlife areas that fall outside protected areas was recently published.

  • Introduction to Xgrid: Cluster Computing for Everyone
    Introduction to Xgrid: Cluster Computing for Everyone Barbara J. Breen1, John F. Lindner2 1Department of Physics, University of Portland, Portland, Oregon 97203 2Department of Physics, The College of Wooster, Wooster, Ohio 44691 (First posted 4 January 2007; last revised 24 July 2007) Xgrid is the first distributed computing architecture built into a desktop operating system. It allows you to run a single job across multiple computers at once. All you need is at least one Macintosh computer running Mac OS X v10.4 or later. (Mac OS X Server is not required.) We provide explicit instructions and example code to get you started, including examples of how to distribute your computing jobs, even if your initial cluster consists of just two old laptops in your basement. 1. INTRODUCTION Apple’s Xgrid technology enables you to readily convert any ad hoc collection of Macintosh computers into a low-cost supercomputing cluster. Xgrid functionality is integrated into every copy of Mac OS X v10.4. For more information, visit http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/xgrid/. In this article, we show how to unlock this functionality. In Section 2, we guide you through setting up the cluster. In Section 3, we illustrate two simple ways to distribute jobs across the cluster: shell scripts and batch files. We don’t assume you know what shell scripts, batch files, or C/C++ programs are (although you will need to learn). Instead, we supply explicit, practical examples. 2. SETTING UP THE CLUSTER In a typical cluster of three or more computers (or processors), a client computer requests a job from the controller computer, which assigns an agent computer to perform it.

  • Status of the African Wild Dog in the Bénoué Complex, North Cameroon
    Croes et al. African wild dogs in Cameroon Copyright © 2012 by the IUCN/SSC Canid Specialist Group. ISSN 1478-2677 Distribution Update Status of the African wild dog in the Bénoué Complex, North Cameroon 1* 2,3 1 1 Barbara Croes , Gregory Rasmussen , Ralph Buij and Hans de Iongh 1 Institute of Environmental Sciences (CML), University of Leiden, The Netherlands 2 Painted dog Conservation (PDC), Hwange National Park, Box 72, Dete, Zimbabwe 3 Wildlife Conservation Research Unit, Department of Zoology, University of Oxford South Parks Road, Oxford OX1 3PS, UK * Correspondence author Keywords: Lycaon pictus, North Cameroon, monitoring surveys, hunting concessions Abstract The status of the African wild dog Lycaon pictus in the West and Central African region is largely unknown. The vast areas of unspoiled Sudano-Guinean savanna and woodland habitat in the North Province of Cameroon provide a potential stronghold for this wide-ranging species. Nevertheless, the wild dog is facing numerous threats in this ar- ea, mainly caused by human encroachment and a lack of enforcement of laws and regulations in hunting conces- sions. Three years of surveys covering over 4,000km of spoor transects and more than 1,200 camera trap days, in addition to interviews with local stakeholders revealed that the African wild dog in North Cameroon can be consid- ered functionally extirpated. Presence of most other large carnivores is decreasing towards the edges of protected areas, while presence of leopard and spotted hyaena is negatively associated with the presence of villages. Lion numbers tend to be lower inside hunting concessions as compared to the national parks.

  • Mountain Lions (Also Known As Cougars) from Montana FWP Except As Noted
    Mountain Lions (also known as Cougars) From Montana FWP except as noted Iowa DNR Physical Appearance The scientific name given to mountain lions is Puma concolor, meaning “cat of one color.” Yet, their back and sides are usually tawny to light-cinnamon in color; their chest and underside are white; the backs of the ears and the tip of the tail are black. Males and females vary in size and weight, with males being about 1/3 larger than females. Adult males may be more than eight feet long and can weigh 135 - 175 pounds. Adult females may be up to seven feet long and weigh between 90 and 105 pounds. Mountain lions are easily distinguished from other wild cats - the bobcat and lynx. Lions, except for their kittens, are much larger than lynx or bobcats, and have long tails, measuring about one-third of their overall body length. Michigan DNR Range, Habitat & Behavior Mountain lions are the most widely distributed cat in the Americas, found from Canada to Argentina. They live in mountainous, semi-arid terrain, subtropical and tropical forests, and swamps. Mountain lions are most common where there is abundant prey, rough terrain, and adequate vegetation. They are active year-round. While mountain lions tend to avoid people, they can and do live in close proximity to humans. They tend to be more active when there is less human presence. The lion’s staple diet is meat. Deer and elk, the primary prey species, often are killed with a bite that breaks the neck or penetrates the skull or the kill is from a “choking” bite that crushes the windpipe.

  • Simplified Macos Upgrade Workflow This Guide Walks You Through the Workflow Process for Deciding How to Upgrade Your Mac Fleet to Macos High Sierra Using Jamf Pro
    Simplified macOS Upgrade Workflow This guide walks you through the workflow process for deciding how to upgrade your Mac fleet to macOS High Sierra using Jamf Pro. With the release of a new Apple operating system, it’s recommended to first check compatibility with existing software, test the stability of the OS, and make sure it meets the organization’s needs prior to upgrading. That’s why the first question you need to ask is—Do you want to upgrade now? NO Jamf Pro has the ability to block the install file for any macOS upgrade. If you want to wait on upgrading, simply create a policy that will block the macOS High Sierra installer app from running. YES Once you have decided to move forward with an upgrade you need to determine what to do with the existing data on your Macs. Are these shared Macs in a lab? Are they assigned to a specific user? The bottom line is— Do you want to keep the data intact? There are 4 methods to deploy the new macOS for your users with the data intact. In all KEEP DATA these options, using the Caching Service within macOS will help reduce network traffic. Consider using this service on your network. Macs enrolled via the Device Enrollment Program (DEP) and running 10.11.4 or later can be upgraded by sending a mobile device management (MDM) command to download and install macOS High Sierra. No user interaction or admin rights required for this option. Download the “Install macOS High Sierra” app from the Mac App Store.
