I have an iBook 800 that I wiped and I am in the process of

I installed 10.1 from a set of ibook recovery disks I just found,
and then I used a 10.2 upgrade disk. This seemed to go ok, but
when I booted up after the 10.2 upgrade, the resolution was set to
640x480 in a small window in the middle of the screen.
my suggestion is to change your mind and install at least panther or
better tiger: I suppose you own a G3: I recently dismissed an iBook
G3 for a G4, mine was a 500 dual usb but maxing RAM (640MB) running
fine with both OSX, and moreover well usable on the web with latest
safari upgrade, skype and itunes ... with jaguar you will encounter
plenty limits.

That would normally be an excellent idea, but I am planning to sell
this laptop. As OS 10.2 came with this type of iBook, I dont have to
include a set of discs with it when I sell it on the swap list (I
only have 1 set of discs that I need to use for myself).
thanks,
Mad Dog
