When the download has completed, double-click the downloaded icon on your desktop and follow the on-screen instructions to.

So here's my story since this is my first post. I'm definitely a noob when it comes to terminal commands and all of that stuff but I'm pretty handy with a computer and google and I have become best friends when it comes to DIY fixes. Well, with the new iPad 2 coming out in 2 days and me, being a poor college student, having no money, I had to decide between my unibody macbook or the new iPad. Well I've never had an iPad so I decided to sell the macbook and save the cash for a new toy. Then I remembered I had to sync my ipad and iPhone 4 to something. That's when I bought the beautiful $100 iMac G4 with 700Hz and 768MB of RAM eek: below Leopard requirement) After realizing that my purchase was pretty much useless without leopard I spent 2 whole days trying to get my downloaded retail OS X 10.5.iso to install via External HD. Finally, after a million searches and no luck, leopardassist not working at all, attempting to figure out the terminal hacks to change the install dvd, and posting the G4 back up on craigslist, I figured it out!

And now I'm here to help This has got to be by far the easiest way to install Leopard on an Unsupported mac. With help from lowendmac.com and some tampering of my own, this worked like a charm. So here it is.this will make you want to pick up a G4 for decoration (they really do make nice lamps with the bright LCD) NOTE: this has only been tested on my iMac G4 with specs listed above. From what I read, it should work with any specs of most older macs.

What you need: Unsupported Mac of your choice running 10.4 I assume External HD with at least 8GB of space (0r some other USB drive) A copy of Leopard OS X 10.5 Install DVD (I don't care how you get it ) Disk Utility, A Keyboard, and Maybe a Pen and paper to write this down if it's your primary computer. Step 1: Open disk Utility and Restore your Install DVD disk Image to the external USB device of your choice. This is done by clicking the restore tab, Dragging the Install DVD disk image to the Source section, and the Destination will be your USB drive which can be dragged from the left column. Note: My USB was partitioned as Mac OS Extended (Journaled) Step 2: after the Image is Restored to your USB drive click on the info button in disk utility to view the information for your Install DVD partition.

Mine looked like this: Disk Identifier: disk1s3 Mount Point: /Volumes/Mac OS X Install DVD File System: Mac OS Extended (Journaled) Take note of the disk1s3!!! The '3' will come into play later. Your number may be different. It's not my business how anyone gets their software I just care how I get mine. Also, it's not like I 'forgot' I had to sync my devices, I rarely do unless I'm jailbreaking, and I have a netbook pc I could use for that so it's not like I'd be stuck. This was meant to be informative so stop hating. Also, I replaced a Mac with a Mac and the iPad will be great for absolutely everything I need it for.

Everyone is different. No need to be so hostile. And yes, I WAS running 10.5.1 until I just updated.which went flawlessy. Please be respectful no need for your comments. And to whoever said I won't get any help here.I already got no help here and I wasn't looking for any, I was providing help. EDIT: and if you wanna make a comment about me Jailbreaking save it, I don't use pirated software on my iphone either, but I do like biteSMS, which I pay for, because it is a lot better than the iOS sms options. And Jailbreaking is legal.

So much for welcoming someone to the forum. OP, I for one welcome your post and there may come a day where the second iMac in my signature will thank you! Your method summed up here looks extremely simple and handy. Many thanks for posting it. I have to say, I don't believe I sensed any hostility from those that didn't 'love' your post, but there are those here who get quite defensive and up in arms over pirated software - which I also don't fiddle with for obvious reasons. I personally have the same comment as you, though.

I don't care who gets what and how they go about it. It's not my place to dictate, even if I don't condone it. In other news, I have a retail Leopard disk, and the older iMac I keep in my office is getting a little tired. I missed Tiger when I upgraded my iBook, and now that I have it again on my iMac, I don't think I really missed it as much as I thought. That upgrade may happen soon.

Your specs are nearly identical to mine, save 100mhz. Any considerable lag under Leopard doing light work? Click to expand.

Thanks for the positive responses I was wondering what kind of community this was going to be after that warm welcome I got. I'm glad to help. I spent more time than you could imagine just trying to figure out how to boot from USB in open firmware and everywhere that said how to do it was unclear and had a bunch of obviously unnecessary steps.

This method worked great and was a huge sigh of relief and hopefully helps anyone else in the same situation. Oh and I can't wait to get that new iPad.

T This also inspired me to spend more time learning about Terminal Good luck to anyone else and thanks for the nice welcome you guys By the way, This was one of the way more difficult alternativeshttp://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?s=&goto=lastpost&threadid=371302.

Every once in a while the stacks from the dock will show a little shadowing behind them because it's such an old graphics card but I'd say that you won't encounter any unexpected lag compared to tiger. I've noticed most things seem faster than tiger. Start up time remained the same also. I've really only run Safari, Itunes, and Mail.app at the same time as far as multiple apps open and I don't think I encountered the pinwheel at all, which is kind of frustrating because my macbook that I sold with 2GHz and 4MB of Ram showed the pinwheel plenty of times. I read somewhere, and I wish I could find it now, that you should turn off the 3D dock effects and change some other settings to have it run better with the graphics card but honestly it's been running find without any modification. I haven't tried watching videos of any sort on it yet but like I said, I'm getting an iPad, that will be my main video watching source, along with the 22 inch screen I can connect it to. Best of luck, I highly recommend it!

And as I mentioned, the update to 10.5.8 went perfectly, and then another update becomes available to get the latest Itunes and Safari and some other things and that went perfectly as well. Just synced my iPhone for with its 8 year old cousin and all went well. No complaints here thus far. I'll keep you updated on any quirks. Click to expand. Click to expand.So, in my case, where I'm booting from an external hard drive regardless, leopard assist did not work, even though when the computer would boot after leopard install denied the system requirements the about this mac would show '867Mhz'.

So leopardassist was doing its part but for some reason (I don't know enough about it) it was still not working. I'm not sure why I care what you say, but this method was Ridiculously easy. For anyone who wants to boot from a USB the restoring in disk utility is necessary, getting the info takes one click and writing down 'disk1s3', you type,literally, 4 lines into OF, and bam you're done. Sounds pretty simple to me, I just tried to be thorough in my explanation. THere was nothing complicated about my mess.

Any considerable lag under Leopard doing light work? Click to expand.Just wanted to update you on a few things. Youtube definitely isn't a fan of leopard but I also don't have any way to compare it to tiger because I never tried it on there. I'd imagine the results are similar but you get perfect sound but miss about 1/2 of the frames of the video. Also, I read a lot of people having a white screen when waking from sleep, I tested this multiple times today and last night and never had any problems. Opens up right to the screen very quickly. And to clarify, my graphics card is: Chipset Model:GeForce2 MX Type:Display Bus:AGP VRAM (Total):32 MB Vendor:NVIDIA (0x10de) Device ID:0x0110 Revision ID:0x00b2 ROM Revision:1057.008.1 I also put the 'applications' folder on the dock and opening as a grid wasn't too smooth so I changed that to 'list' with no problems whatsoever and i'm still using the 3D dock without a hitch.

I tried this solution with my powermac but never managed to get it working so tried a 'insane' thing: Formated my powermac drive in Apple Partition Map.
