The connectors are actually on a module that connects via a cable. But it is still 'built in' and as such the Tiger does install on a B&W provided you have a DVD drive, CD media. You can't boot directly from a FW drive as the B&W supports neither FW booting nor Target Disk mode. One of the features of XPostFacto is a tool to allow you to boot a B&W from a FW disk. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
