Can a Smurf G3 be booted into Target Mode?
No.
I want to upgrade the OS to 10.4.11 but the Smurf does not have a
DVD drive.
Options:
1) Tiger CD Installer 4 disc set
2) Use XPostFacto "helper disk" to boot from external Firewire DVD
drive.
3) Boot from external USB DVD drive (very slow).
4) Clone the installer DVD to HD partition or USB Flash drive.
5) Remove HD, install Tiger elsewhere, replace HD.
6) Use NetBoot to install Tiger:<http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=2005050214484646
