Having trouble installing iDVD on my imac G5.

I have the iLife 05 DVD that contains iDVD. I have a imac 1.6 GHz PowerPC G5 with a DVD (read only) drive. I have an external LG Super Multi DVD Rewriter. The external DVD drive works with the imac but in the system profile says under burn support "yes (not supported)".

Any ideas on how to get iDVD to load?

Thanks.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.4.11), imac 1.6 GHz PowerPC G5

Thanks for the reply.

No, iDVD is not installed. When I install iLife (via the DVD), it installs Garage Band, iphoto, imovie and imovie HD but not iDVD. I just assumed that it doesn't install because the system doesn't see a DVD burner. I don't see iDVD in my applications list.

I'm stumped.

Thanks,
