The hard drive has failed (i have removed it and its clicking away to itself) as I get the flashing folder at start up and the optical drive failed a while ago
It's a 1.8 GHz PowerPC 970 (G5) processor
I have the original OSX Panther discs but have no way to reinstall onto the new hard drive once fitted
I can't use an external drive as they are not recognized on my G5
I have another Mac mini 2006 running Snow leopard and my daily driver is 2011 imac running mavericks
Is there anyway to reinstall panther onto the new drive using either of the other macs or do I just give up
Any advise greatly received
