korki696 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 ok so i downloaded a four cd version of OS X 10.4 for PPC and it started to install and then it asked for the second discc so i put it in and it kept installing but then all of the sudden it stops and an error comes up saying like "Please install again". What can this be and how can i fix this??? thanks -Korki- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technobob Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Sounds like a corrupt disk, try burning the second disk again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swad Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Did you get them from Demonoid? I *ahem* have seen those around and might be able to get a MD5 hash for you to check yours with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Nonny Moose Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Isn't this one of those "We can't help you" threads (please edit to place link inside those quotes, mods), since it's dealing with installing from .dmg files and not from official CD's?

Rammjet Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Sounds like a corrupt disk, try burning the second disk again ive already tried that-Korki- Try reburning at the slowest speed possible. If you have another brand or type of CD media, use that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escape311 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 I have those same discs and haven't had a problem on my iMac G3 or my PowerMac G4. Yeah maybe try different CD media or a slower burn rate. Did you burn at max rate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
korki696 Posted August 19, 2006 Author Share Posted August 19, 2006 ok i tried at the slowest rate (8x) and it still didnt work so im gonna try a different cd type next if i can find one thanks -Korki- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtwh20 Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 just for grins, check the memory on that mac - i have a G4 powermac that wouldn't load until I took out 2 NON-OEM RAM Sticks maybe yours was upgraded - can't hurt - should be 2 slots remove one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bptba93 Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 maybe it's the fact that it was downloaded? *cough* *cough* i hope it isn't the same one i'm dl'ing right now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
korki696 Posted September 4, 2006 Author Share Posted September 4, 2006 ok so i booted the first cd again and partitioned it and then only installed the operating system no extras and it worked fine thanks -Korki- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
