How to install Mac OS X in a iMac G3?
September 30th, 2009 | by admin |I got a iMac G3 (slot-loading) with Mac OS 9.2, but i want to install Mac Os X, a friend told me that it’s imposible, but i see a lot of videos on you-tube of iMacs G3 running Tiger, How can i install Mac OS X?
Note: i have the Mac Os 10.1 cd installation but i don’n want to make all wrong.
You should be perfectly fine to install 10.1 on your iBook. I haven’t run Mac OS 9.2 in ages, so I don’t remember the menus. Find a link within the OS called, ‘About this Mac’ and verify that you have at least 128MB of RAM; you should. Insert the Install disk and reboot your computer while you hold down the ALT key. Choose to boot from the 10.1 install CD and follow the on-screen instructions. If that doesn’t work, reboot your computer normally, then launch the 10.1 Installer from the icon on your desktop.
