Remote install OS?
It still boots up and functions, so I want to do a clean OS (tiger) install, but how?
I have a macbook pro with snow leopard and I've tried sharing it's optical drive via wifi network and get an error message: "The application 'Install Mac OS X' cannot be used from this disk. To install Mac OS X, please use the application provided on the Mac OS X installation disk."
I've also tried making a .dmg file of the disc, transferring that to the iBook and running it, but it requires booting from the installer; so when I click Restart, the iBook just boots up normally. I've also tried selecting the installer as the startup disk, but when I click Restart it just makes an alert tone with no message.
Any ideas lovely people??
