| 9.2.2 for iBook 16 VRAM? |
Posted by: jack on 2017-09-14 13:47:32
I've got a G3 snow (600 MHz 16 VRAM model) I want to put 9.2.2 on.
From what I've read online, it's compatible with *only* 9.2.2.... my 9.2.2 CD has a 9.2.1 installer and the 9.2.2 updater, and refuses to install on the iBook (boots just fine tho).
Anyone know which CD I should be using here? Or a quick hack to get the CD I've got to work?

machine specific disk with 9.2.2 as retail ads dont seem to install 9.2.2 straight on only 9.2.2 macs. i.e. Mirror Drive door and aluminum powerbooks.

These CDs are from an iBook one generation newer than yours (the early 2003 32 MB VRAM), but they should work:

You need specific Mac OS ROM to get it to work which is one of the confusing thing of OS9.2.2, I'd grab one of these eMacs versions which should be close to latest/last.

The link mrpippy posted worked... only confusing factor was that you had to install from Mac OS X.
