					<description>this walkthrough is great. there is only one problem i found with these directions. you have make sure that your copy of the .dmg file used is not read only. i &quot;obtained&quot; a copy of tiger to do this with, but the .dmg was read only, which led to hours of frustration until i realized that i had to use disc utility to burn the image to cd, then re-rip the cd to a read/write .dmg. at first i tried to use the terminal to change the owners and the permissions on the .dmg with no success. i might be possible, but it's beyond me. just use disk utility and everything will be fine</description>

					<description>Jon

THANK YOU for this info!  I upgraded my macbook to a macbook revision 2 (core 2 duo), and sold the old one on ebay - but I lost the original install DVD.  I thought i'd be ok to use the new macbook install DVD, but it complains about the machine.  A quick copy of the install dvd to a blank usb hard disk, a vi of the OSInstall file, and I'm one up on MacOS!

Thanks again

					<description>I just wanted to thank everyone for sharing this information.  I run a small computer store (just  getting started) and a young kid brought me a Mac Book he'd &quot;bought at a gas station&quot;.  He'd paid $500.00 for the thing so I hope - wherever it came from originally - that it was insured.  I lectured him about buying stuff in this way, but he was on the hook for $500.00 and had a password protected Mac Book 1,1.  I had never touched a Mac.  For 5 weeks I tried everything under the sun, including picking up an old iMac G3 for testing things.  After downoading dozens of CD sets, &quot;universal&quot; Mac OSx  DVDs that did not work, I  downloaded some DVDs that purported to be the retail disks for a Mac  Book, bought a dual layer DVD burner (which I didn't have). They tried to work, but failed with the message that I had the wrong hardware...

From a command line, with DVD 1 mounted on the old iMac, I did the 'ol triple whamy.

I edited the OSInstall.dist file thusly (as superuser):

First Edit  (Title = &quot;I never met a Mac I didn't wanna work for....&quot;)

var badMachines = ['']; 

Second Edit: (Title = &quot;Some things in life are simply best ignored, completely........&quot;)

changed installation-check script=&quot;hwbeInstallCheck()&quot;/
to
installation-check script=&quot;&quot;/

Third Edit (Title = &quot;Can't we just all work together and get along...????)

Changed that pesky line down at the bottom (you can't miss it), to this:

var hwbeSupportedMachines = ['iMac4,1','iMac5,1','iMac6,1','MacBook1,1','MacBook2,1','MacBookPro1,1', 
'MacBookPro1,2','MacBookPro2,1','MacBookPro2,2','Macmini1,1','MacPro1,1','PowerBook6,5','MacBook2,1']; 


And, in the above line, you should absolutely do this in Vim to avoid getting a line break - the line break is on this page due to the contraints imposed by the page itself.

ALSO: I had virtually ZERO luck trying to mount thse things on Windows and editing the above file with a text editor (though posters on torrent sites said this would work).  Do this on another Mac (based upon my experience) and use a command line text editor.


Thanks again,

					<description>i am trying to install Tiger onto my clamshell iBook SE (no DVD). 

after created and copied the disk image (thru firewire) of OSX Install DVD and mount to the hard disk, i run the 'osinstall.mpkg'. but installation halts and prompts “BaseSystem cannot be installed on this computer. This software cannot be installed on this computer.”  have also tried to activate the Install Mac OSX but it only leads to reboot and go no further.

i'm pretty sure that the script has been edited to bypass the installation check and badmachines check.

appreciate if anyone can offer further help.</description>
