BootCD can do this, but only on 10.3 on PPC macs. I don't know of another program. You could get a little firewire drive (10 or 20 GB), and load up applications you'd need on that..

Thanks but I have got a Mactel 10.4 lol

Thanks for ya help though, and I might be getting a Firewire drive for xmas.

That's actually how they do it at the Genius Bar - the little portable FireWire drives, setup with 10.4 or 10.3, PPC or Intel. A firewire drive boot would be faster than a CD or DVD boot.

well lets hope I get a Ex. HD for xmas then . i'm sure it is easy booting the apps up.
