I’m trying to install 10.4 on an iBook G3 running 10.3.
It’s the first white one, the Dual USB, with only a CD drive, and my
Tiger installer disk is a DVD.

So I connected a G4 Mac (Snakebite) in target mode to use its DVD
drive.
But the iBook doesn’t see the DVD or the boot drive in the G4, it sees
only the second HD in there, the original one with OS 9 installed.

I don’t know what’s the problem.
More importantly: How do I get the iBook to see the other drives too?
The G4 has 10.4.11 installed and the volumes are journaled.

If this isn’t possible, I plan to Carbon-copy the DVD onto an external
HD with a Firewire port, then do the install with that HD connected to
the iBook. I hope that’ll work at least...
