When you get a new mac with upgrade disks, they are for that specific type
of mac. this also applies apparently when you get a new mac with disks for
reinstalling the os. I know this because when I reinstalled tiger a few
times, it had specific stuff in the documentation about my computer and
such.

Subject: [macvoiceover] Can not install leopard
Hello all.
I have two copies of leopard: one dvd that was purchased separately and a
two-piece (I'm assuming cds) that came with my new mac mini intel core 2
duo. The two-cd set is not just an upgrade installation and should have all
of Leopard on it. However, I gave this to Carla so that she could install
Leopard on her macbook intel core 2 duo. We chose "install macos10 and
bundled software" and restarted. When the installer came up, we started
voiceover, made sure english was selected, and pressed continue. We then got
an alert saying the software could not be installed on this computer. The
macbook as a gb of memory so that's not the problem. We also had a sighted
person look at the cd jacket and it says nothing about being only for mac
minis. If the problem is with the installation media I can trade and give
her my dvd instead but can anybody explain why this would be the problem or
tell us what else might be causing this. Again, I'm quite sure the set that
came with my mac mini is not just an upgrae set.
Thanks for any help.
Cheryl
