After successful installation of gentoo on my MacBook Pro, now I decided to go again with full disk OS X. The major reason is, heat the nVidia GeForce 9600 produces. Temperature starts from 65 deg, after normal start up, goes upto 98 degs, once I started running programs..... Since, my programs require lots of computation and power, as I mentioned earlier, I cannot avoid this heating issue and I am afraid of damaging my hardware. But, the question hanging before me is, why the graphics card temperature is going up, I am not running any graphics intensive application!
Anyway, happy news is, Snow Leopard is releasing this friday (28th Aug), before the expected date of Sep 19th. I will go with that, since the kernel is 64 bit and it is meant for Intel Macs and also, it does not bloat the installation space!
Welcome Snow Leopard!
