[REQUEST] Mac OS X 10.4.x Tiger CD Version (PowerPC)

[SuperThecomputergeek]

Hi, I'm looking to install mac os x tiger on my imac, however whenever i burn it to a dvd, the imac just pops the dvd out, cd's work fine though so if i can have a cd version of a powerpc version of tiger (the minor version doesnt matter, i want to install 10.4.11 anyway) that would be great.

Thanks.

Well I've got 10.4 PPC Server on DVD (and I believe 4 additional CDs).

I can't recall what happens if you don't enter the serial number.
i.e. if it runs as a client only, or if it simply refuses to install.

Are these original discs?

Are these original discs?

Yup - bought of Amazon a few years ago.

Can you perhaps dump and scan them for us, so we can archive them properly? Would be great to have original dumps of PowerPC stuff.

Would be great to have original dumps of PowerPC stuff.

Don't you already have them, given this list:

Code: Select all

|   +---Apple Mac OS X Server 10.4 (10.4.8A428) (2005)
|   +---Apple Mac OS X Server 10.4.3 (10.4.3.8F46) (2005) [Xserve]
|   +---Apple Mac OS X Server 10.4.7 (10.4.7.8K1079) (2006)

Or are all of those Intel releases?

No, I've not looked recently to see what the exact version, or build number is for my copy.

You're quite right, I had all but forgotten that we had these!
