Both macintoshgarden and macintoshrepository have files with the same name, but I'm 99% sure they're Dutch only. The image (LEOPARD_PPC_IMG_RESTORE_TO_TARGET.dmg) contained in this torrent is, as far as I know, the only english version you can find. It then booted off the SSD no problem and went straight to the Leopard welcome video/user setup
#POWER MAC G4 SPECS M8570 UPGRADE#
AFAIK it has 1GB of ram, an ATI video card, and a DVD-RW as upgrade parts. I dont know what model it is, as I just brought it home from the recycling center. What I wound up doing was tracking down a restore image of a preinstalled copy of PPC Leopard, and using a Mac Pro, restored it to an SSD, which I then put back in the G5. Hey friends, I just got my hands on my first Mac G4 tower. I also couldn't get it to read from a dual layer DVD, which sucked because the Leopard DMG is too big for a standard DVD-R, and the 3GB PPC-only version, while it exists, has mostly been scrubbed from the internet. These machines are supposed to support USB booting, but from what I understand are pretty picky about what they want to see as bootable filesystems. I had a similar issue a couple weeks ago with a G5 that needed Leopard. * Burnt the ISO to a DVD+R DL, the drive in the Mac couldn't read it so I hooked up an external one, no joy.Įvery time I just get the prohibited sign, I guess I'm missing something, just not sure what lol. I just get the prohibited sign.įrom my understanding it should be compatible.
#POWER MAC G4 SPECS M8570 ARCHIVE#
I think I've tried every image of 10.5 available on the internet archive to no joy.

Perfect replacement for old, unreliable power cables Work with most PCs, monitors, scanners, and printers Available in lengths up to 25ft (1) C13 IEC on Connector 1 (1) NEMA 5-15 Male on Connector 2.

Tried the same thing with 10.5 and no go. Replacement power cord for PC, monitor, printer, scanner, etc. Primary hard drive was dead, I managed to get an iso of 10.4 installed onto a USB thumb drive and got it installed on the secondary drive (after removing the failed one). Picked up a Power Mac G4, 1.2Ghz dual CPU 768MB ram. I burnt that image with Transmac and managed to get it booted.
