[QUOTE="caribiner23, post: 143718, member: 9169"] If there's another Mac around, you can put the other machine in Target Mode, connect the two machines via Firewire, and load from there. I loaded Tiger on my CD-only G3 iBook by putting my OSX DVD in my G4 iBook and booting it into Target Mode. The DVD appeared on the G3's screen, so it was "click" and we were off to the races. :-) [/QUOTE]
