    Does anyone know of any ARM code in MacOS

    I remember an article where you were able to get OS X 10.9 Mavericks running (kind of) on an iPad Air. I was wondering, does anyone know of any ARM code in newer versions of OS X or MacOS? Here is the article https://tidbits.com/article/14617

The thing is, the hard drive has been erased on the Mac - and it's only got a CD drive. I believe there are some boxed versions of OSX 10.3 and...
