Clean install of Snow Leopard with Wireless Keyboard

[chappy87]

Hey guys, couldn't find any info on this anywhere in the forums, but apologies if it's already been discussed.

I've got a 2007 iMac on the way, and believe it has an Apple wireless keyboard. It's supplied with Tiger, and I plan to do a fresh, clean install of Snow Leopard. Can anyone tell me if it's possible to boot from the Snow Leopard disc (option key) with a wireless keyboard, and thus be able to install Snow Leopard, or will the keyboard not pair until OS X is installed?

Cheers in advance guys.

I think it works, if not how would people who buy new iMacs boot in Boot Camp?

Just try booting holding alt and you'll see if it works

I'm pretty sure it works, or if it doesn't I think the disk has an installer you can run on Tiger, that will restart your computer boot up from the disk and continue the installation.
