[QUOTE="ByzantineRemnant, post: 1464231, member: 7913"] Thanks for this post! I can confirm that I just succesfully downgraded from 10.8.1 to 10.6.8 from a refurbished 27" iMac I just purchased from Apple. In regards to "chscag," I agree that downgrading to a machine that did not originally ship with 10.6.x would be foolish. However, since the 3.4 i7 27" iMac I just purchased came out in May of 2011 a couple months before 10.7, I don't see there being any hardware issues as all of these components were OEM shipped from Apple to work with 10.6.6. Thank you for the detailed post "dyl," it was a nice step by step process. I do know how to target disk mode, but having a set of instructions was helpful. [/QUOTE]
