At the time, the team stressed that Alsa and OSS audio capture had been removed from the v4l and v4l2 accesses, while support for Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger) had been dropped “due to its technical. Okay, well i see a lot of you didn't get this working. Neither did i. However if you go to this torrent right here: you find all the versions of Mac OS X from 9.2 to 10.7. IF, you just need 10.4, like this torrent then its simple. Download the torrent file, open it with your torrent client. Then usually a window pops up with the download directory at the top, and the files in the torrent in the box at the bottom. Just deselect all the checkboxes for the versions of OS X you dont need (for example 10.7, 10.6, etc) and hit ok or download or whatever. If the window doesn't pop up, then there should be some way to view the files in a torrent. Google it if you dont know. Okay, so it takes a while to download, so i would advise you to do it at night before you go to bed & just leave your computer on. Mine finished in a couple hours. Okay, so now in the Mac OS folder, there should be a folder called 'MacOS X 10.4.0 (Tiger)-Spanned.' Open it, and you have your 4 ISO files ready to burn to CD. Burn all 4 cd's & label them. Put the 1st cd i(disk1) in the mac you're trying to install to, and press the 'ALT' key on a mac keyboard while booting up. After a while, you'll get a blue screen, just select the one with the picture as a CD. The name of the cd should be whatever you set it to. Make sure it's selected, click the arrow, and you're done.

Currently installing tiger on a 10.3.9 700MHz iMac PowerPC G4. That torrent i linked to above is useful, you can upgrade G4's/G5's up to leopard as far as i know. You can use the leopard dvd iso included to try and jump to 10.5 if you want. But anyway, this is my solution. 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. Famous missing people. 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?
