If you get a single stick of PC100 sdram at 128mb and put it in the lower slot 10.3 should load fine. PC 66 and PC133 are no good it must be 100. I do not know why but that was the only way i could get panther on my 400 Lombard when i had it. After the install i just put the ram i had back in

Re: OS X on Lombard

Ensure your RAM is working correctly -- try removing each of the DIMMs in turn, and installing. OS X is much more picky about its RAM than OS 9. Apart from that, try resetting PRAM (Cmd-Opt-P-R at startup, hold until you hear 3 startup chimes), resetting the PMU (instructions will be in the ma

hi, i remember reading that the lombard is picky about having more than 256mb ram to install os x. i can't remember if it prefers the 256 in the lower or upper slot. after the installation of os x, reinstalling the ram should work fine. hope this helps. rama. On Dec 23, 2004, at 2:04 AM, Dijkwe

Officially, the bottom slot can take a 128 low-profile DIMM and the upper slot can take a 256. Unofficially, many people have put 256MB low-profile DIMMs in the lower slot for a total of 512MB RAM. OWC seems to be a good source for this because of the lifetime warranty and guarantee that they m
