Many thanks. That works. I hooked my G3 ibook to my new G4 iBook with Firewire and upgraded the G3.

I am currently formatting and updating a G3 ibook to sell and I want to update OS 10.2 to Panther or Tiger but the only complete installation disks I have are on DVDS. I somehow misplaced Disc 1 for CD install for Panther. The ibook only has a CDRom drive. Is there anyway to update the this computer by connecting it to another laptop that has a DVD drive? or would someone consider lending me disk 1 for the CD install.

Ralph,

You probably can't do that, but you can install Panther, and probably Tiger, by connecting your iBook to the other machine, with the iBook in Firewire Target Disk Mode.
