[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 877495, member: 56379"] It probably doesn't make a difference...but what version of OS X are you trying to install?...there are different versions! Is the OS X install disk CD's or DVD? Again this shouldn't matter since all iBook G4's have DVD drives (which can read CD's as well). Have you tried booting your computer while holding down the "c" key (Mac OS install disk in the drive)? Have you tried when booting up from the HDD (with the Install disk in the drive)...going to "System Preferences"...and selecting the Mac OS X install disk as your startup disk? Is your Mac OS X install disk dirty or damaged? Give these ideas a try if you haven't already, - Nick [/QUOTE]
