Help create 10.5 install media.

[elf69]

I have created el cap and sierra usb installer by using a terminal command.

Can I do same with 10.5?

I have a 10.5 DMG file which was on our server at work.
So I made a copy.

either DVD or USB would work for me.

Thanks everyone

Use either dd or disk restore, the latter is also available with a GUI

disk restore via disc utility?

point at a usb stick then, select the DMG to restore from?

Sorry if sounds dumb questions I'm a relative newbie and a user rather than power user.

If you are going to burn media…

Open Disk Utilitiy and Burn a New Image. Select the DMG as your image and then let DU do the work.

Assuming it's an actual installer DMG then you will have a bootable DVD to install Leopard from.

You will need a computer that has a DL burner and you will need a DL DVD.

Can I make a USB drive?

I do not have DL disc to hand.
Might have wait til can get a DL disc then.

Of course you can, but you cannot boot straight from it but via an Open Firmware command
