[G5] Installing Tiger to my Pboook using my G5

[Kunga]

Must work the other way around. Target boot the G5 and the Tiger DVD  
will mount on the powerbook desktop where you can launch the  
installer and it will reboot. I've done this before installing  
Panther on an old iMac with a bad CD drive so I know it works. Forgot  
which one to boot target. Sorry. The target booted Mac acts like an  
external DVD drive and stays that way even when you have to reboot  
the installer from your powerbook.
