Yes I know that, but how can an install disk that should be intel only be able to boot on a powerpc mac? I am so puzzled by this. And "For Mac Computers", What the H*** is that?
Hmmm....that presents an interesting prospect. There is obviously PPC code on the disc or it wouldn't boot from the disc at all. I would look into the installer files and see if there is anything there that tells the installer which Macs it is allowed to install to. Like if it says something like 'If PowerPC then No", change it to 'If PowerPC then Yes' and see what happens. The same if it specifies a minimum CPU speed. Change it to whatever speed your CPU happens to be or to some value less than that.
