Re: Which OS X install discs will work with a G4?
2008/10/27 Charles Lenington [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Also, be careful I ended up with 3 copies from same seller that appear to be copies. Most of my original disks are black but these have a blue or purple tint. So I had to find an original to back these up and call these backups. I have umpteen Mac recovery disks lying around. They don't only come in black at all: I have grey ones and blue ones as well. -- Liam Proven • Profile: http://www.linkedin.com/in/liamproven Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] • GMail/GoogleTalk/Orkut: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: +44 20-8685-0498 • Cell: +44 7939-087884 • Fax: + 44 870-9151419 AOL/AIM/iChat: [EMAIL PROTECTED] • MSN/Messenger: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] • Skype: liamproven • ICQ: 73187508 --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Which OS X install discs will work with a G4?
On eBay, there are a lot of people selling OS X installers for specific hardware, and I'm wondering if any would work on my G4 gigabyte system with a single processor. I'm looking for a way to get a copy of 10.4 inexpensively. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Those are pulls -- discs that came bundled with specific Mac systems. Their licensing does not permit them to be transferred without the original hardware. I'm looking for a way to get a copy of 10.4 inexpensively. Look for a full retail kit. - Dan. -- - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Selling them separately is somewhat less than proper. =That= said... installing the grey, machine specific disc sets on a machine other that what they were sold with is pretty much a crap shoot. They might OR might not work. I suspect... the closer your machine family and the discs from another Mac are... the better your odds.
