Wrong. Several MBPs came with/can run 10.4, the Core Duo 2006 models, the Core 2 Duo Late 2006/Early 2007 models, and the mid-2007 models. Bruce Johnson wrote: No. The minimum OS for a MBP is 10.5. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using

Easy solution Load 10.4 on an external firewire drive and see if you can start from it; that will tell you; without any damage to the MBP internal hard drive. On Feb 3, 2010, at 19:07, Chance Reecher wrote: Wrong. Several MBPs came with/can run 10.4, the Core Duo 2006 models, the Core 2 Duo

I can almost guarantee that it will not work. AFAIK, there is no Intel code on most of the black 10.4 retail discs. What happens when you try to boot the MBP from the retail disc? Does it load the installer, then tell you it will not install? If it does, then you might be able to make it work.

In the defense of Bruce I have to say after trying all avenues he is correct just didn't bother with the manusha. t I found the last MBP to run Tiger would be 2007 Santa Rosa Core 2 Duo
