| Having trouble burning a bootable Tiger disc for my G5 iMac |

LaPorta sent me a .cdr format image that when burned with Imgburn in Windows....ACTUALLY BOOTED. 🙂
One step closer to getting it up and running, and then setting Classic Mode up with all of my games.

Success! At least for now :lc:
Took a while to get the OS installed, but it finished late last night. Got to work on moving over all of my old games from my G3 in the meantime... which takes quite a while over USB1? I even managed to give the G5 a nice upgrade - Found two brand new 1GB sticks in the back of the place I work at, and swapped the 160GB HDD for an SSD.
Huge thanks to everyone who chirped in.

I'm glad to see that it worked! I really think a lot of the time the trick is to just make the master images on a Mac with Disk Utility and everything will be copied.
