Rumors go that one should be able to install OS X on a Lombard (400 Mhz). However, in spite of numerous tries with different configurations of RAM ( from 64 to 384), no success yet. During installation the book invariable freezes and it does so irrespective of whether I try to install 10.0, 10.2 or 10.3.
I've heard X is quite picky about it's RAM: does that mean all three sticks I have are corrupted?
Any suggestions more than welcome, thanks,
Peter
Sounds like a RAM issue. I had the same thing happen on an iMac G3 and changing the RAM solved it. I have installed OS X (Jaguar and Panther) on two Lombards with no problem.
Is any of your RAM the original module(s) from Apple? In my experience, they are more reliable for OS X installation.
