Erik, I'm affraid they will not. I have tried several PowerBook and iBook installation CDs and DVDs with different Panther versions and none of them booted the Cube. I think the problem is not with the installer inside the media, but with the system folder that each one of them contains. A retail Panther DVD/CD will perfectly boot/install in your Cube. Anyway, give it a try... it won't hurt. LM >>>dads at tds.net 03/23/06 2:59 pm >>> But that was not the question. Will the hardware-specific iBook install discs work on the Cube; previously this was an issue for some OS releases.
