Installing Tiger sans DVD
[Alex Maccise] I've seen many posts concerning Apple's decision to ship Mac OS X 10.4 exclusively on DVD. While I understand that Apple has offered its customers a $10 exchange option to "downgrade" to CDs, I would like to post a second option for those more adventurous types.
Some slightly related from Technorati and Google.
[blogblogblog] Installing Tiger on an iBook: Now the explanation for why this DVD is unreadable by her iBook’s DVD player is one i won’t try to understand. But when i was at the Genius Bar recently, i saw two people bring in Tiger and say that it wasn’t being read by their computer.
[MagneticMediaFed] So much to discuss, so little time. Hey, you get t...: I can't think of a western I've seen that has done as good of a job as Deadwood has done when it comes to illustrating just what it was like to live in a lawless prospecting town in the late 1800s-- well, maybe "McCabe and Mrs. Miller" (which, sans the violence, might be a fair comparison).
[Tuaw.com] The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW): The installer just hung while trying to determine what volumes it could install to, and after a restart, it decided it would not install to the Target mode Mac. Luckily, I had a 2.5" enclosure, so I stuffed the drive in that, and she installed just fine, and worked in the Pismo just fine.
[Technorati.com] Technorati Tag: Tiger: What if you've just got yourself a shiny new Mac? Do you know what stuff you might need to install on it in addition to the already included software...
