[QUOTE="gsahli, post: 1590470, member: 182015"] As far as I know, that's not correct. You just need to boot from any drive other than the drive you want to format/erase. Any version that will boot that Mac will work. So the questions remain - are you sure - the CDROM drive works, and that you have a CD/DVD that will boot that specific Mac? [/QUOTE]
