Monte, Standard Combo drives are capable of installing the system software. It doesn't have to be a Super drive specifically. Does your G4 not have either a Combo or Super drive?

Orininally, the person I purchased it from said he had to use an Apple superdrive to install from the Tiger dvd as a generic dvd drive/burner would not work. Is this correct/accurate. Thanks, Monte
