Any help would be appreciated on this topic!
I have a coworker that brought their 27" 2010 iMac (11,3) to me for a cleanup / reset so they could repurpose it for their kids. This iMac is pre-Internet Recovery and my coworker no longer has their installation discs. I've tried different ISO / DMGs files, but when attempting to install they either won't boot or the one that does indicates that it can't be installed on the iMac. I'm a little rusty on this since the Macs that I have owned were made in the Internet Recovery phase.
From everything that I've been reading, it may need to be the specific 10.6.3 build 10D2322A (non-retail install) for this particular iMac. Does know if this is true? I have seen some of the original install discs on eBay listed as "iMac OS X 10.6.3" (picture attached). I'd be willing to buy these if they would work since the iMac is sitting without an OS right now.
Or does anyone know of a place that the appropriate ISO / DMG could be downloaded?
Thanks in advance!
