Last weekend I decided that it would nice thing to have a little apple script which would download, configure and install Tiles@Home on my mac and possibly on any other apple machine out there waiting for OSM to eat up its CPU time. After installing Tiles@Home on Debian with virtually no problems at all I thought this might be a very easy thing to pull off... Well, after spending almost a whole day on downloading, compiling and installing thousands of little perl-scripts and native libs in order to get it running, believe it or not, I changed my mind. But hey, its working now :)

If you have alot of time and want to install T@H on your Mac too, take a look into the Wiki. I've made a *small* installation guide for OS X there. Its only 10 times as longs as all the others ;) osm.wiki/index.php/Tiles%40home/Install_Guide#Installation_instructions

Anybody out there having some firsthand experience on installing T@H on windows?
