IOS Jaguar Software Download for PowerMac G4 Cube

Hi

I have a complete PowerMac G4 Cube (cube, monitor, speakers, keyboard, mouse) in full working order.

I want to sell the computer, but want to do a factory reset first.

I have been told for this computer I require a disc with the software to do this.

I don’t have the original discs, so I am looking for a reputable website where I can download the software to another Mac, burn a disc and then boot the disc on the Cube.

The IOS currently running is 10.2.7.

My brother who works in IT says the latest software that will run on the Cube is 10.4.1, but I don’t know if that is correct.

The serial number of the computer is

OS X Jaguar was never available via download. It was only available on disk. Check used Mac vendors for availability of a set of disks, as they are readily available.


DO NOT trust *ANY* online source that claims to have a downloadable version of Jaguar. It would be illegal and probably also a scam containing malware.


Further note, your PowerMac Cube G4/450 can run OS X Jaguar 10.2.7, Panther 10.3.x and Tiger 10.4.x up to 10.4.11 so you do have additional choices if you cannot find disks for Jaguar.
