Trouble shooting new os 10.4 tiger installation on mac pro




By l_j_backwell on Oct 27, 2009

" "
I've bought a 2nd hand mac pro, and whilst setting it up I downloaded some updates, during time the installation got disrupted. Now I 'm having problems booting up. After reading for 3 days I've ended up erasing and trying to reinstall the os x. I can get as far as loading disk one of the installation disks, but cannot eject the disk to insert disk two.

You sure you got the original gray label install discs for this computer? Sometimes people stick gray discs in with the computers and they are not specific for that model.  The Macbook Pro ships with Tiger 10.4.6
Borrow a black label Tiger retail disc from someone and install your OS that way.

- Oh yeah one more thing.  The early MacBook Pros shipped with Tiger and the newer MacBook Pros shipped with Leopard.

thanks for your responses. I do have all the origonal gray disks, the difficulty is once I have instaled the first disk, I cannot eject it without going through a restart.
