With all due respect, this question comes up on here every 9 days. There are numerous threads discussing the many ways to accomplish this task. A simple search will result in many responses to this topic. Some go into great detail about this and explain everything with detail. To re-write...

Yes, net-boot and net-install are nice to have. I was going to add that in as an option for you to install Tiger Server but you'd have to create it in Tiger (you have to create a net-boot or net-install set on a Mac that is running that same Mac OS X version that you are creating. It can be...

Also, If the time and date are off you can tell that the network connection is down somehow.

1997 called and you were not home. When somebody said system bus I went to the bus stop and waited.

Thanks for the tip. I'll check this out. I won't run Windows in my house.

I really enjoyed playing WarCraft II Tides of Darkness and Beyond the Great Portal BattleNet edition. This was long before World of Warcraft which is nice but not even close to the same thing. It would be great if I could play these on a modern Mac with current Mac OS either original or upgraded...

I don’t know why your power mac 8600 doesn’t have a PCI video card. Mine came with one. With one of those you’d be all set. No need for adapters.

So, you burned the ISO contents (not the ISO itself) to a Dual Layer DVD and you're inserting it into the Mac Super Drive. The Mac has an existing OS to boot from and your DVD mounted on the desktop. Inside the DVD is the Install Mac OS X Server, run it and install to another volume. If your...

Yes I have used Mac OS X server 10.4.7 on a Mac mini 1.1 Mac OS X Server 10.4.7 (Tiger) requires a PowerPC G3, G4, G5, or Intel-based Mac with at least 256MB of RAM (512MB+ recommended), 3GB of available disk space, and a DVD drive for installation. As a Universal release, it supports both...

If your floppy drive works, send me a floppy disk with the documents and I'll post them somewhere for you.

Buy an old printer and print the documents. Take the printed documents over to the newer computer and set them on top. Now the documents are on the new machine. Later if you want to, scan the document and save it on the new computer. No fuss.
