It should read DVD's, at one point I put a slot-loading DVD drive in
it from my 2004 iBook; it looked strange, but it worked fine, I'm
pretty sure this is how I installed 10.4 onto it. (From the DVD)
(Using Xpost Facto, that is)
10.0 through 10.2 were only released on CD, 10.3 was released on both,
and 10.4 had a special-order CD set, however you might have a hard
time finding one. If you do download it from the internet, it would
probably be illegal... I would suggest looking for a CD set on eBay,
or even the LEM swap list.
If you're trying to run 10.3, it should be easy to find a CD set, but
I really have no idea how rare the 10.4 CD sets were. If you are
trying to install 10.4, I would probably recommend trying to find a
DVD drive for it.
