Q: How do I install os x tiger on a blank power mac g5?

A friend of mine gave me his power mac g5, freshly wiped and without install discs. I have install discs for Snow Leopard, but I seem to understand that Tiger is the last OS that works with power macs. Of course, when I turn on the computer, all I get is the gray screen with the finder icon/question mark. Is there any way I can install OS X Tiger without the install discs?

 

Sorry in advance that I cannot provide the specs for this computer. I'm not really sure how I can find them without being able to use the computer itself.

PowerMac, Mac OS X (10.4.11)
