Hey im wondering if I will be able to install 10.4 on the family G3 iMac.
It meets all of the syster requirements except inbuilt firewire, and a dvd reader.
10.4 Requirements:
* Macintosh computer with a PowerPC G3, G4 or G5 processor
* Built-in FireWire
* 256MB of RAM
* 3GB of available hard disk space (4GB if you install the developer tools)
My iMac specs
* Macintosh computer with a PowerPC G3 processor
* Built-in USB
* 330MB of RAM
* 20GB hard disk with plenty of room left
Im unsure why inbuilt firewire is needed and was wondering if anyone had tried installing it on a mac without it.
And since it dosent have a dvd reader would it be possible to make a dmg of 10.4, copy it to my ipod, boot from my ipod and install it?
Thanks
