Hello,
I have a 233 MHz PowerPC G3 iMac with Mac OS 9.2.2. with a bad CD-ROM drive.
I recently obtained a copy of Mac OS 10.3. Is there anyway to upgrade my iMac without using the CD-ROM drive? Is it possible to extract the installation files from the CDs and transfer them to the iMac with a USB flash drive? I really don't want to spend any money replacing the CD-ROM drive, but I have a copy of Mac OS 10.3 just waiting to be used. I figured I could use the upgraded iMac for web browsing.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
zunigae
