Our iMac G5 came with software disks, as all Macintosh computers. I took the "Mac OS X Install Disk 1" disk and I put it into the G5 (which now runs 10.5.3). Inside I saw the Install Mac OS X and Bundled Software.
I popped in the same disk into my Beige G3 Tower (OS 9.2.2) and it popped up and the Install Mac OS X and Bundled Software icon looks the same. When I open it (to try to install OS X on it), it reads something like: "The alias 'Install Mac OS X and Bundled Software' cannot be opened because the original cannot be found".
My question is, what can I do to make it work so I can intall OS X from that disk onto the Beige G3? Or is that disk exclusively for the iMac G5?
Thanks!
