Sorry to bother with such a mundane question, wouldn't you think I  
would know this....but.

I am trying to install Tiger on a computer that does not have a DVD  
disk, so I placed the computer next to one of my computers that has a  
DVD drive, hooked the two together with a firewire, started the DVD  
computer with the "T" key held down, and sure enough the disk appears  
on the computer that I want to do the installation.

By double clicking the install icon I get a screen that tells me to  
restart that computer and installation will begin.  When I restart it  
always comes back to the O.S. that is on the hard drive rather than  
the disk that is on the target computer.

I have tried holding down the "C" key, that doesn't work, I tried  
holding down the "T" key on the second machine, that doesn't work.

So, how do I get the older machine to boot from the Target computer  
so I can begin the installation.

Thanks, possibly others will learn from this as well.
