XPostFacto gets Tiger support

XPostFacto is a utility from Other World Computing which helps to install and boot Mac OS X, Mac OS X Server, and Darwin on certain unsupported systems. When Mac OS X installs successfully, its stability on unsupported systems appears to be excellent. XPostFacto 4.0, the latest version, supports Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger), runs on Mac OS 9.x or 10.2 through 10.4, installs Mac OS X 10.2 through 10.4. and works with “New World” machines that Apple dropped support for in 10.4 (such as the original iMac, original iBook, and the Lombard Powerbook). It also avoids the mis-application of the 8 GB limit on “Old World” machines by the Mac OS X Installer.
