I have an iBook with 10.2 on it. I would much rather have a newer version of OS X on it and I have some 10.3 install dvd's from an eMac I used to have but bit the dust.
The problem is that the iBook does not have a dvd drive and therefore I cannot do this the traditional and simple way. I tried connecting it to my Macbook with firewire and rebooting so that it mounts as another drive but my Macbook won't run the instal program.
Is this because OS X won't let you downgrade or is it because 10.3 didn't come with intel support and the dvd's assume that I want to instal the software to my Macbook hard drive rather than the iBook's drive?
Is there any easy way to do this other than finding an external drive or sending the dvd's back to apple and trading them for cd versions of the software?
