Hello,
I am new to the Mac world. I inherited an older iMac. It is a G5 Mac Os X Version 10.4.11.
It does not have a DVD drive.
I have hooked up a USB DVD drive to it.
I am trying to format the hard drive but having no success.
I have a Mac OS X disc that is in the DVD drive but I'm not sure how to get it to boot from that disk first (if that is how you do it like on a pc)
I tried going to System Preferences>Startup Disk but it does not list the DVD drive there.
So I would like to know the steps to format the hard drive?
Any information at all would greatly appreciated.
Thank you
