Does the Mini still have support for only one monitor? If they'd add
dual monitor support (the video chip almost certainly supports it),
I'd buy one in an instant. I don't need slots, but I want dual

What I ended up doing was plugging the offending modem into the G4
Gigabit where it would mount as a CD.
I then created a new folder and copied the contents to it and then
sent it to my drop folder in the PowerBook.
(I first tried to do a disk image as suggested by Bruce but no go)

Then go for a Silicon Image chipset card, they're reasonable on eBay
