Hi John Could you restate (or send me privately) your installation method, please? I'm not sure I followed it through all the posts and discussions - and I don't think I've kept them all.
While I've not YET had a problem installing Tiger on my Pismo (which has had enough RAM and a DVD-RW drive since Jaguar, IIRC) so long as the hard disk is smaller than 128MB, this doesn't mean an alternative method may not come in handy some time. thanks Bruce On 13 Feb 2010, at 17:04, John Carmonne wrote: > > On Feb 13, 2010, at 8:50 AM, wren wrote: > >> I have 512 'in that thing'. >> >> The only trouble, apparently, I was asking for was posting how pleased >> I was on the list.
