hello all!

I am currently using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 32-bit and have Virtual Box Installed. I want to run Mac OSX (specifically Snow Leopard or Leopard). However, most sources i see say that i must have at least 4 gb of physical RAM to make it work. Will my machine be able to do what I want?

My system specs (complete)

-Biostar Motherboard (idk the exact model number, but Intel H61 chipset)
-2 GB physical RAM
-500 GB Toshiba Sata 5400 RPM drive
-Intel Pentium G2030 (dual core, 3.0 ghz)
- hardware virtualization activated

Yes, you can install it . But it will be as slow as a turtle. Slowing down your ubuntu as well . In case of less RAM than actually required, RAM utilises Virtual Memory from the HDD; enabling it to work. But I advise you yo not do it. You wont get best of any side .
