When you install Leopard on a PPC Mac, does it even install any x86 code? And vice-versa?
I know the Applications folder will have Universal apps, but what about the actual OS guts? Is it really installing a bunch of worthless x86 code on my G5?
Yeah, it does. I even believe that a GUID disk with a plain 10.5 install on it will boot any supported Intel or PPC Mac.
