If you can get use of that other Mac, use FireWire target disk mode...


Check whether you need a 6 pin to 9 pin FW cable or whatever each end has.

Put the Install DVD in the the other Mac, shut both down, connect with a Firewire cable, boot the other Mac holding the t key down, once the floating FW symbol shows up, boot the this Mac holding the Option/alt key down, eventually the Install Disk will show as a Boot Option on this one.
