The only way you can get Leopard on it is CCC real slow about 4
hours easy PITA. Unless you have a program that
absolutly has to have 10.5 stick to Tiger
You could also use a comp that mets the 876MHz rule to install onto
the 400MHz Mac by either pulling the hard drive or booting the 400MHz
into firewire target disc mode, plugging it into the 876MHz Mac with
a firewire cable, then booting the leo installer on the 876MHz MAc
and installing onto the firewire 'hard drive' (the other Mac.) This
also works for installing Tiger onto a non-DVD equipped system
without the CD set.
