Q: MAC mini intel 1.6 not booting

Hi Team,

 

Is there anyone who can help me?

 

I have got MAC mini Intel 1.6 CPU and 1GB RAM version which had 10.4.11 operating system running since last week.

 

For some reason it has stopped working.

 

I dont have the OS disks with me at this point of time and also i think my CD drive is not working well.

 

Any suggestion,how can i load the operating system on my MAC mini through USB or etc? also from where can i get the operating system?

 

Regards,

dhruv

Mac mini, Mac OS X (10.4.11), Intel 1.6Ghx 1 GB RAM version

    If you have two USB flash drives connected, one Mavericks and one Tiger, then while booted with Mavericks, via DU, restore Tiger DMG to the second USB. Shutdown the machine, remove the Mavericks USB, and power up the machine and choose to boot from the Tiger USB and install Tiger (the Tiger .dmg should be the installation CD/DVD image) to the internal drive.

    It would be good to see what is in this Tiger.DMG file. Is there a way for you to post the directory listing from the DMG?
