How to wipe old Macs running 10.7.5 & 10.5.8?
I want to recycle (@Staples) an old MacBook running 10.7.5 and PB G4 running 10.5.8. Target disk mode doesn’t work because, I guess, it shows a floating Firewire icon on the screen. I don’t have any FW cables and the Mac Mini which would do the wiping has no FW inputs anyway. Tried connecting via direct USB cable and Target disk mode and the target drive was not seen in that setup.
Same with the PB G4. I do not have OS installers for those laptops.
Can wipe these over wifi or direct connect with Ethernet cable? If so how?
