Hi,

Realistically MacOS 9 can't talk.

There have been a lot of "imacs" over the years, guessing you have a version that is a 15" CRT? I speculate that your iMac is so old that it only has a CD ROM drive and your Tiger disk is a DVD.

I might try seeing if your iMac supports booting into Target mode. Hook up a firewire cable to your Tiger Mac and the iMac and turn on the iMac with the T key pressed. I'm not sure when Apple started supporting this mode, though, and it may be after your iMac was built. If it works, you can install Tiger from your other Mac as if on an external disk.

My only other suggestion is an external DVD ROM drive (assuming your Tiger disk is a DVD of course).

I do know you can install Tiger on an iMac DV model.
