Os10

[howef@iprimus.c]

I want to instal OS10.5.4 on emac G4 1,25 GHz. Can I use a Time capsule 500GB to store files from 10.3.9 before installing 10.5.4. I am told Time Capsule only works with OS10. Will I have to use some other external hard drive to preserve my files?

If you upgrade your system to 10.5.4 why would you want to downgrade "sync" that system to 10.3.9?
Time capsule needs 10.5.x, not 10.x.

You should be able to mount your TimeCapsule on 10.3.9 - so you can transfer your files by hand to it.

Afterwards you upgrade to 10.5.4 or clean install 10.5.4, get back what you need from the backup and delete the backup from the TimeCapsule and immediately let it do a Time Machine backup, so everything's backed up again.
