[QUOTE="Orinoco, post: 1012455, member: 146486"] I am using a retail version of Leopard but from what I read I should be able to use any version since Apple is using a universal installer (i.e. for both Intel and PPC). Also when I cloned the PB's internal Tiger HD onto the external HD it still did not boot! It looks like the PB is looking for a system on the external HD and does not find it (folder with questionmark) although I know that the system on the external drive is perfectly fine. [/QUOTE]
