10.4 requirements

[akidd]

I've searched MR, Google and Apple with no success... What system requirements do I need for my G4 iBook to run 10.4. I remember a minimum processor speed but none of the searches revealed this. 10.3.9 is still fine (hell I publish a UK B2B magazine - www.interiorsmonthly.co.uk - using it), but until Apple update the iMac (or I get enough £ for Pro), 10.4 would be good.

Thanks.

Your iBook G4 will run Tiger just fine.

At least 256 MB of RAM (512 MB or 1 GB recommended)
At least 3 GB of available hard disk space; 4 GB of disk space including the Xcode 2 Tools

Sorry, forgot to include that I'd been there as well. So are there no processor minimums?

Tiger will run on any G4.

Even Leopard will run on any iBook G4 other than the original 800MHz 12" version.

It will run on any G4.

Thanks to all of you who replied. Off to to back-up first.
