I'm reading alot here and elsewhere about upgrading my G4 dual 500 from Panther to Leopard and looking for more info. From what I read it's doable. A couple of stupid questions. I have a Macbook Pro with Leopard. Can I use that installation dvd to install Leopard on my G4 ? My Panther on the G4 was an upgrade, can I get an legitimate upgrade to Leopard somewhere ? Any advice/suggestions will be appreciated.
You cant use the MacBook's installer, it is model locked. Also, you will need to do some trickery to get Leo to install, but i think you can use XPostFacto4 to make it work. Also, look on ebay for Leo DVDs. I would get a full install DVD, but thats just me.
