Hi
I have a slight problem with one of my ibooks. It's a second hand one I need to intall mac os x on clean, my original disks are being iffy (cleaning them hasn't helped sadly) but I do have a copy of Tiger - problem with this is it's a DVD and this is an old ibook with only a CD drive.
I tried searching but couldn't find anything about remotely installing the OS and removing the harddrive into another the other ibook isn't an option. About the only other thing I can think of is using my USB hdd enclosure, which also has a problem that it's not made for laptop harddrives and secondly I have no clue if I could install to it on an ibook that already has Tiger on, that I can't afford to bugger up with any accidents that could occur trying.
So, is there any way I can install Tiger onto my old ibook using my linux desktop and it's DVD drive, over my home network?
