Hi,<br />
I am trying to restore two eMacs here, I inserted the install disk 1 and pressed C while the machine was rebooting to boot from CD, but I get a flashing &quot;?/finder&quot; icon and then nothing happens. It boots to OS normally and I don't get any menu to erase or restore. What am I doing wrong? Please help.<br />
note: The CD's are meant for eMac. It is a set of 2 OS cd's and 3 application CD's and 1 media CD.<br />
Thanks,<br />
Priya.

Restoring OS on eMac

Mac OS X is the desktop operating system from Apple Inc., found on Macintosh computers. OS X consists of a Mach/BSD-based kernel, operating system interfaces primarily based on FreeBSD and additional frameworks (written in C, C++ and Objective-C providing user interface and application-level services.

Mac OS X

Apple's early computers ran on a variety of operating systems, including a Pascal version and one based on CP/M, before releasing its ProDOS with the advent of its 16-bit computer. With the release of the Lisa, which had its own OS, Apple and computing entered the graphical age; it was followed by the Macintosh, which offered a series of "System" operating systems. Other Mac operating systems included PowerPC until Apple acquired NeXT and folded it into the Mac OS. Current operating systems for Apple devices are Mac OS-X and iOS.
