I bought an old iMac G5 and inadvertently installed OS 10.6 on it. Amazingly it runs, but takes almost 10 minutes to start. I want to install 10.3, but I cannot get the original G5 iMac disk to mount properly. When I try to start from the install disk the image is very snowy, and appears as a negative.
I tried to quit the installer, then use the Disk Utility to erase the iMac's drive, but it would not let me do that either.
How can I get the OS 10.3 to run this iMac?
