New guy here. I have searched everywhere but I just seem to be missing it. What I am trying to accomplish without much success is a format and reinstall of Tiger from the Gray disks 1 and 2 that came with my 17" Intel iMac. I seem to be stuck in an endless loop here. The install will not let me get past the writing files stage on disk 1. It gives me the "error in installing" please install again. I have everything disconnected but mouse and keyboard. I have erased the disk using the zero method and have repaired and verifyied the disks. Still stuck in the same loop. All I can access is disk utility and the install process. Nothing I seem to do is working. Please tell me I am just missing something simple. Thanks in advance for any help.
