Hi everyone. I recently repaired a broken 500 MHz iBook that was given to me by a friend. Its specs are in my signature. I have installed Panther on it but I would like to install Tiger. However, it doesn't have a DVD drive but my MacBook has a Superdrive. I don't have an external firewire drive either. So I would like to know this; can I boot the PPC iBook off the Intel MacBook's Superdrive using target disk mode? Will it corrupt either 'book since they have different processor architecture? Will the MacBook's Superdrive actually read a PPC Mac install disk? Thanks in advance.
As far as I can remember, when I started my C2D iMac from an old G4 iBook, I could access the iBook's superdrive. And your Intel Mac will not give you a problem reading an CD/DVD for a PPC machine. Intel and PPC are architectures, no ISO format (International Organization for Standardization: used to describe specific formats like CD images, so they can be read by whatever fracking computer).
