Hi:
I purchased Tiger and, expectedly, it came on DVD. I have a 700m
Mhz, G3 dual USB iBook. I tried to install Tiger on my external
DVD drive, but no luck. I couldn't select it as my startup drive
in System Preferences.
I have one last chance at installation, though, as I have a 900Mhz,
dual USB G3 iBook with a combo drive and a FireWire. How do I do
it? Does anyone know how to link them together by FireWire? Is
the combo drive started up in target mode? When do I hold down
the T key (I thought that it was the Y-key)? Is there a web page
to explain how to do it?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
dmjh
I installed Tiger via my LaCie Porsche external firewire dvd drive.
Connect your external drive. Put the tiger dvd in. Let it load on
the desktop and then run the installer and it will reboot and start
from the dvd to install.
