I have a G4 quicksilver 867 which I currently run 9.1 on one HD and 10.3 on the other.
I also have a Dual PPC G5 2.5 that I run 10.4.11 on.
I have been told that I cannot use the software from my dual G5 to install onto my G4, since a 'special' form of 10.4 is used on the G5 that is incompatible with the G4.
Sho nuff...I done tried it and it don't werk.
I have several questions then.
1. Do I need to buy another 10.4 Tiger software package, or is it a question of needing new 'firmware' for my G4 to run it?
2. Perhaps it is both, but if it is only firmware, what version, number, etc. do I need to download from apple to make the switch?
3. I am also considering ramping up the speed of my 867 with a dual 1.8 Newer Tech Maxpower processor....how would this affect the issue of which Tiger version software I would use, and does anyone have any ideas pro or con on these processors or any other issues I might encounter with one ( like video card problems etc. ) ?
