PowerBook G4 and Jaguar

2004-12-11 Thread Pat Heidingsfelder
I just got one of the Al'books 1.5ghz 15 with superdrive.  I am trying 
to load Jaguar on it, but it will not boot from the disc.  Is it not 
'allowed'??
I want to load Jag on a small partition to use some wireless utilities 
that don't seem to want to work with panther.

Thanks!
Pat

Pat, I ran into a similar situation (see my message PowerBook won't 
boot from Panther CD)

I was able to get it to boot from the Install CD that came with the 
PowerBook and did an Archive  Install The CD installed 10.3.3 so I 
guess that is the MINIMUM version of OS X that will boot up the 15 
PowerBook.

What you might try is to erase and partition the drive, re-install 
whatever version of 10.3 that came pre-installed, and then try 
installing 10.2 on the other partition. Then try changing the the 
start-up disk to the 10.2 system. Be warned that you may get a kernal 
panic.

And not all versions. My 15 G4 PowerBook won't boot up from a 10.3.0 
System. My minimum system seems to be 10.3.3
