Upgrading to Tiger Problems
Well I have finally got around to buying Tiger. I was all excited and inserted my disc into my 12" PowerBook G4.
Was told to restart, which i did. no problems so far. Choose my language, then hit a wall.
I was told that my computer can not use Tiger! I am now very surprised as my PB is less then 1 year old!
So i head on line to see if I can figure it out. Find out the apple trouble shooting page what the problem is:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106693
Basically it seems that i need to update my Firmware ( whatever that is ), so i am thinking far enough. So i go ahead and download the approriate updates. Problem solved??
NO.
In order to run the Firmware updater I must use Mac OS 9 or later but my PB only allows me to run Mac OS X. ( checked on startup disk)
So i am at a total lose! Any help would be great!
Thanks!

Something else must be wrong.
I'm going to copy (not move) this to Genius Bar, as I don't have a PowerBook and someone there may be able to help - JL
