#Apple mac os x 10.0 cheetah install#
Some years ago I made a backup copy for 10.4 and when I try to install it the iMac ejects the installer disk.ĭoes that mean that you are trying to install from a copied install disk? Was it a backup copy of the Full Retail Version, or was it a computer specific installer? What happened to the original install disk, the one of which you made a backup copy? Is it available for use? The computer described above will support up to 10.4.11 (Tiger).

The next area where we need greater clarity, as has been asked by both LittleShoulder and Tom is, exactly what do you wish to do. It was initially released with Mac OS 9.1 (Mac OS ROM 7.5.1) and Mac OS X 10.0.4 (4P13) and later with Mac OS 9.2 and Mac OS X 10.1, 10.1.2, 10.1.3, or 10.2. My guess is that you are talking about the iMac 2001 (Snow), which was introduced in July 2001 and discontinued: January 2002 (700 MHz), March 2003 (500, 600 MHz). Since the iMac you list in your profile is obviously not the computer about which you are asking, we are left to guess. Also, repair permissions before and after the install.
