<FONT FACE="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>Hi I’ve got a friend who’s got one of the first generation iMacs a 233 with the CD drive that pops out. He’s trying to install Tiger but gets an error that says it cannot be installed for whatever reason. It doesn’t have Firewire on it and he’s trying to install it through an external DVD via USB. The Tiger disc appears on the desktop and the installer can run but gives the above error. Does it need to have FW to install Tiger similar to the Beige G3s needed USB to install Panther? I know you can install Panther on the Beige G3 with X-Post-Facto I was wondering if there was something like this going on with iMac 233? Has anyone tried installing Tiger on one of these iMacs? <BR>

Thanx<BR>
