[QUOTE="Sherman Homan, post: 438812, member: 22094"] ditto Aptmunich, more ram is essential. The problem is, what is wrong with the CD? If it is busted, you are going to need a CD reader for Panther or a DVD reader for Tiger. But that isn't even going to do it if you have the earliest iMacs because they wouldn't boot off of USB and they don't have Firewire. Next issue is getting to System 9.2.2 which will absolutely require a firmware update or you will fry the video circuit when you install OS X.
