Install Mavericks on Aluminum MacBook 5,1
I am trying to install Mavericks on an Aluminum MacBook 5,1. It was built supposedly early 2009. It has 4 GB of RAM. It is now running Snow Leopard.
I have read the specs for Mavericks and Mountain Lion from different sites.
This laptop should be support either operating system according to what I read.
I keep getting an error message when I start to install, that Mavericks cannot be installed on this device. I do not want to buy Mountain Lion, if it will give the same message. The specs for Mountain Lion are the same as Mavericks.
So what am I missing in the specs or the install that is stopping the install?
Thanks in advance.
