[CUBE] Tiger (OS X.4)

[Jason Torrey]

I have a PowerBook G4 with a SuperDrive.  Would it be possible to put 
the Cube in Firewire Target Disk Mode and install Tiger on my Cube's 
hard drive that way?  The only thing that immediately comes to mind is 
whether the installation process installs different software based on 
the computer type (i.e. notebook or desktop or server).
