Powermac G4 - 1'5Gb Ram - 1Ghz - 10Gb HDD - ATI AGP Graphics
Hi, I'm Spanish. Sorry to use the Google translator.
My problem is I have a Powermac G4 AGP with 10Gb hard drive and Mac OS 10.3 installed. I recorded the dmg image of Mac OS 10.5 Leopard on a dual-layer DVD. When you insert the DVD on Mac perfectly detects and starts the installation correctly, but when I restart skip this message: Can not open the CD //: tbxi (or something similar). It may be that my hard drive is about to die? I appreciate your help very much. Thanks in advance.

PS: My Powermac has 1.5Gb of RAM and processor at 1GHz (with the help of Leopard Assist)

Purchase yourself a LEGAL retail install 10.5 install disk…and you shouldn't have any problems.

p.s. Also…a 10gig hard drive is way way way too small.
