I have a G4 Powerbook
Processor 867 MHz PowerPC G4
Memory 640 MB DDR SDRAM
Version 10.3.9
I trying to restore my software, but my restore disk is version 9 classic.
Should I use the version 9 disc to restore and if so how do I get back to version 10.3.9 or higher.
Thanks

Restore disks

by mrmacfixit Forum moderator Nov 1, 2008 11:25PM PDT

You should have two restore disks for that machine.
One is for OS X and the other is the System 9 restore disk.

Start the hunt for the missing disk!

It's possible that OS X 10.3 is also on that disk, if it's a DVD and not a CD, but there should be some mention of that on the disk itself.

Good luck
