OS 10.4.11 1.5 GB RAM What you're seeing is a kernel panic, which usually is because the OS detects a problem with the installed memory sticks. In my experience, it's because there is a mismatch in specs between two or more banks of RAM. I usually run the Apple Hardware Test and look at the specs of the RAM in each bank. For kernel-free operation (at least as far as RAM goes in 10.4.11), match the speeds, latency and other specs and you should resolve your issue.
