The CD drive may or may not come back to life after applying this update from within MacOS (you must reboot after applying the update, or the drive will not function at all): http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60458
Damn, i think my isp doesn't want the imac to go internet. Dns are not resolved, and typing 17.112.144.81 that should be the docs.info.apple.com ip doesn't work ( google instead, 66.249.85.99 , works ). I have also inserted the ip of some working dns in the internet configuration tool but nothing seem to work. I guess the only way to perform these upgrades is from mac os, not from linux, right? I can anyway reopen the imac ( a thing that i really don't like to do again ), put its hd into my x86 and copying the files ( hfs write seems to be supported ), then remount the hd and try to install the updates.
In the meantime, you can still install Linux, but you must use a netboot netinstaller In setting up your netboot environment, you must take into account that the tray-loading iMacs use BootP and not DHCP.
To finish the "no luck" series, my x86 doesn't seem to like the new pci ethernet card... One hd stops after a while :( , and i don't know what is the problem ( powersupply too weak? ).
