G4 PowerBook Orginal Install Disk version

I've just brought a very good condition PowerBook Titanium from a friend. They have misplaced the original install disks.

I wish to set this PowerBook back to it's original state (As it came new)

I am sure the Mac OS X version originally installed for this PowerBook is 10.2, but can anyone here confirm?

Thanks

PowerBook, Mac OS X (10.2.x) , G4 Titanium 867Mhz

Ah a DVD, That does suprise me as I assumed it might be a set of six disks like the iBook of the same year.

Thank you very much for this. 🙂


Looking at the specs page for the 867/1Gig machines, I see that the 867 came with a combo drive and the one gig came with a super drive in stock configuration, so the DVD would probably be the same for both machines. My original super failed finally and I replaced it with a better (more recent) model UJ-845, as opposed to the original UJ-815, because 815s are pretty hard to find these days, at least at a reasonable price.
