    HELPFUL HINT: It will not let me partition my Sandisk 16GB USB drive. I found a fix:
    When using Disk Utility, if you are unable to choose the scheme for your drive (GUID, MBR), go up to the top and choose 'View', then 'Show all Devices'. This will allow you to chose the ROOT, most likely right above the drive you were initially clicking on. From here it will allow you to choose GUID when you erase the drive.

    Unless your mac does not boot and will not boot from dvd, then making a usb from a dvd using os x is not possible.
    How about making usb from os x 10.4 install dvd using windows?

    Trying to follow your tutorial to downgrade one of my my internal drives back to SnowLeopard there are the following issues
    1-st Once I erase my 64GB pendrive creating the two partitions as suggested, the second partition I created the INFO button does not tells me the partition is an APPLE PARTITION but it seems to stay as a APPLE EXTENDED partition
    2-nd Opening a SNOW LEOPARD disk or SNOW LEOPARD disk IMAGE there are no INSTALL ESD files
    The restore function works anyhow, but the flash drive doesn't boot
    ANy hints?

    2007 macbook Core 2 Duo. EMC 2139
    Installed Neverware's Cloudready Chrome (which runs quite well on this).
    Decided to uninstall but no uninstall option meaning I had to wipe the internal SSD using another computer as below...
    Booted into OS/X from USB-HDD (2011 macbook pro's original HDD now in USB case).
    Booted. Wiped internal SSD (mac os extended journaled) using OS/X's disc utility.
    Now 2007 macbook has no operating system.
    Tried to boot from Linux USB and DVD (to move to Linux).
    Screen goes white and has movable mouse cursor, but no UEFI boot menu.
    Assumed no OS/X and/or Bootcamp was necessary to boot into another O/S from USB.
    Tried to use mac recovery start up keys.
    Screen shows folder image with a question mark inside it.
    Any advice welcome thanks.

    I want to Get a NEW 1 tb drive for my g5 and install Tiger OS 10.4 on it. SO do I need to make the hard drive formatted for a mac? or that does not matter? I have the APPLE Tiger software to Install.
    SO, do I need a "software serial number" to install this on the new hard drive or
    will it install, as is without issues or questions? ANY Ideas to make it work right?
    I am getting a new Seagate 1 TB drive that is backwards compatible to the mother board bus speeds.
    I also have Final Cut Pro 5. THe machine only has a 160 GB drive and is used only to CAPTURE fire wire video from a Camera Mixer using the FC 5 and then make 1 file of it 16gb and then Dump that to a Flash drive and take Home to EDIT on another newer Laptop Mac and a newer F C version and all works.
    Just want a Newer Drive and larger to save some video for a while before Deleting.
    Does APPLE Tiger 10.4 have installation number Serial Number ????

      acguevara acguevara, in short, because the older OSs were not designed to be installed that way. It can be done using a “hack”/workaround in which you boot into open firmware but the method you demonstrate only works for OS 10.6 and up.
