3/13/2024 0 Comments Reinstall mac os 10.4 11I actually found a Youtube video on how to hack into the iBook G4 using an Open Firmware hack that worked just fine, and allowed the Administrator's password to be removed (I only did that to make sure the laptop was working fine, my intent was always to put it onto 10.4.11 because I wanted Classic mode to operate). Do not try to install 10.4.2 and assume that you will be able to upgrade to 10.4.11. So whatever version of 10.4.X/Tiger you install from must be version 10.4.3 or newer. Be aware that 10.4.2 will install, but the machine will be unusable, with a extremely blurry screen, non working trackpad, and no wireless networking. Installing 10.4 is not a problem, but you may run into a problem with the earlier versions of 10.4.X, as the video chip isn't supported on versions 10.4.2 or earlier. I have the same iBook G4 1.33GHz 12" that I also bought from eBay, and it also had 10.5.8 installed when I got it.
