Firstly, can you run it?


Minimum System Requirements for OS X 10.4 Tiger:


  • A PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor
  • Built-in FireWire
  • At least 256 MB of RAM
  • DVD drive (DVD-ROM), Combo (CD-RW/DVD-ROM) or SuperDrive (DVD-R) for installation
  • At least 3 GB of free disk space; 4 GB if you install the XCode 2 Developer Tools

Secondly, you may find it difficult to get. Look on eBay or Amazon for a black retail install disk. Don't be surprised at the price.


Thirdly, your iBook is a decade or more out of date and officially obsolete. Is it not time to quietly retire it and get something more modern? 🙂
