Ok so i am using a windows 7 computer to download this, i did change the.toast to.iso, the mac i am trying to upgrade is a PPC G4 ( the cool pedestal ones ) its currently running 10.3 so i was reading that you can not do a direct upgrade install from 10.3 it tells me to reboot and it will install but it dose nothing. The computer reads it fine, i was wondering if i have to do it as a clean install, 10.3 will not let me wipe the drive, now it has since occurred to me that i need to be logged in as a root user to do this ( could this be my problem) the drive utility just will not let me wipe the drive in the admin account i created for this computer. So i am not a super mac user but somewhat familiar with them so i am wondering if the MAC will automatically boot the.iso image when i have wiped the OS off the computer? Or should i burn the disc with.toast or.dmg? To accomplish this? Thanks ahead of time for anyone trying to help me out:). I know its been awhile lets just hope someone is paying attention to this thread, using power ISO on a Win 7 machine, did the change to.iso thing but i am using a Pedestal G4 iMac which has 10.2.8 on it now, the automatic upgrade will not work from this OS version, restarting and holding down C will do nothing restart with Option key only shows my local drive to boot from no DVD ( I can not burn the.iso image with the Mac as it dose not have the DVD burner. Can you even boot from a DVD with these iMacs? This has been a tough one to figure out some help would be nice thank you. This disc is not intended to be installed on an iMac ( G4 pedestal)it is not a universal installer disc, i did alter the OSTInstall file to remove iMac from the list of banned computers, it is now installing but but there seems to be some problem now, it starts its install and then fails right at the end with an error message i have tried every install method it say my disc might be dirty it has problems reading the disc but now i can not seem to figure out how to eject the disc now, eject button on key board is no longer working i think because the previous install is no longer present? Or its archived. It says there is still something on the disc but i can not start up with the old version now to open the disc drawer, is there any tricks to getting the dvd drive to open? Like in single user mode or something? I have spent alot of time for on this for my GF ( I fucking hate Macs they are bullshit ) or can anyone point me in the direction of a 10.4 disc that is a universal installer disc and not machine specific? It's easy to install without a CD/DVD drive: 1. Make second partition on your hard drive (4.7 size) with Disk Utility, just be sure you have 10+GB of free space. You will NOT lose any data. Rename.toast to.iso 3.
