I just ran into this with a USB flash drive, I cloned tiger retail DVD, and used Pacafist to strip out the hardware checks, then used it to install tiger (very, very slowly) on a tangerine clamshell (no firewire) I had picked up for $10. I then tried to use the same method on my backup Lombard (just for fun) and the drive was not recognized as bootable no matter what I did.
I'm curious about this process. Anyone care to write out the steps, please? Could be useful in the absence of a DVD drive. Thanks.
