Thanks for the reply.

The second idea did occur to me; (I have a G4 Quicksilver and I have been swapping HDs in and out of it) but would the install be specific to the host machine?

So I need to upgrade the optical drive, or find another way to install. Does anyone have a DVD drive for sale (slot loading) that would work in

        I've installed Tiger using "Target Disc Mode" and a laptop with a
DVD drive, but your iMac doesn't have Firewire, so that won't work.

        You could yank the hard drive and put it into a different machine
to do the install, if you have access to one.
