they are machine specific unless you buy the universal install disk. 
I have 10.6, but it is specific to the MBPro 8,1.


You can download it.  I have an imac dvd but I think they are 
machine specific?

Re: [MBZ] El Capitan now whatever 10.6 was called

[clay via Mercedes]

iMac tend to collect kruft that reduces cooling and leads to operational 
failures.  I have acquired and revived a few by careful application of canned 
air after removing the coverings.  The same overheat failures plague the 
laptops.   To clear up drive issues, fully clean the guts of the iMac, then I 
would use the install disk to boot to disk utility.  Repair permissions and 
check the surface.  If that does not return errors, you can Carbon Copy clone 
the drive to the SSD or 4 Tb drive

Re: [MBZ] El Capitan now whatever 10.6 was called

[Rich Thomas via Mercedes]

OK I got the SSD and replacement HD for my iMac, which I have been 
putting off installing for a few days but I need to do that.  I want to 
put the OS (which will be 10.6.something as I have some apps that don't 
work with the later versions) on the SSD and then restore or transfer 
everything off the (possibly failing/overheating) original HD.  I have a 
Time Machine backup drive.  I have the original OS install DVD and a 
pointer to the updates (10.6.8?) so I can get that sorted out OK on the 
SSD.


Any y'all have some detailed instructions on how to do the app/data 
transfer and set it up to boot off the SSD and see all the other stuff 
on the new HD?  I found a few instructions on how to sorta do that but 
they did not entirely address my concerns and still seemed a bit vague.  
I think DPPoos had some instructions for when he did it?


I am thinking that the overheating on the HD might be due to some 
schmutz in there clogging things up, so I will do a thorough cleaning 
too and then put the original HD in an external case so I will probably 
be able to pull stuff directly off it though I will also have the TM bkup.


I got a new 4TB drive, wasn't that much more than a 1 or 2, and HGST 
Deskstar which seem to be the highest-rated HDs.

First-gen C2D I think.  15" Pro3,1 2007?  Can only take 4GB.

Re: [MBZ] El Capitan now whatever 10.6 was called

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

iMacs are really intolerant of high temperatures. I swapped a hard drive in a 
20" C2D iMac I had and the temperatures killed the new drive in a week. Your 
SSD should be fine.

Load the OS to the SSD with the optical media. Apply whatever updates are 
necessary to get it as current (for that OS) as possible.

Be absolutely sure you use the same naming convention for the machine and your 
account(s) in the new install. If you don't, you will have home folder and 
permission problems with stuff you restore from TimeMachine.

If you want to avoid these potential issues, boot off the OS optical media and 
restore the old OS to the SSD. It's not as clean, but it will take you back to 
exactly where you were with your last backup.
