[QUOTE="parasbuy, post: 1623459, member: 189066"] my mistake... it is an A1181 with Core 2 Duo, 1.83GHz, and 2GB RAM... and I believe you are right that it could be upgraded to Lion, but not after. Yes the DVD drive is working properly. The Linux was installed properly according to their instructions. However, installing the DVD into another Mac just says that the disk is not readable, so not sure how I would confirm it, but I believe it is installed properly. In any case, shouldn't I at least be able to see the DVD come up as an option by holding down Alt or 'C' during boot-up? [/QUOTE]
