There have been several reports of poor Poulsbo Linux drivers making it difficult to get anything other than 2.6.24.x ubuntu netbook remix to work with it. Anything later on Linux has had issues. I would expect osx to have similiar issues, even starting X I would be VERY surprised if the Mini12 gives you any level of success, specifically with the video card.

The problem with the HP 2133 is that it uses unusual hardware, making it harder to make a hackintosh of it. While OSX has been shoehorned onto VIA machines like the OQO before, the chap who claims to have done it on the 2133 seems to be alone in his achievement. There are no reliable instructions we could find ... and it can easily be faked for the camera with remote desktop shenanigans. Corrections to the chart are most welcome. Hah!
