But you can use a Mac Mini temporarily in Target Disk Mode for extra storage, as long as you don't setup the extra storage to try to boot the Mac Mini. Partitions allow you to select what you will boot on a Mac, if you have the right machines. Note, new Mac Minis are formatted differently than the iMac G4 can support for reading. An older Mac Mini G4 could double as external storage for the iMac G4 via Target Disk Mode. Target Disk Mode does not transfer the processing power of the other machine, it merely makes the storage available. And also the optical drive.
