I've got a PowerBook G4 (the 15" 1.67GHz model, M9969LL/A) that I want to set up as a dual-boot system. I've got the hard disk partitioned and I've successfully installed Debian from CD. However, when I try to boot the Tiger install disk, it gets partway in and crashes - sometimes while loading, sometimes at the "connect a mouse" screen, but never very far into the install process. I've tried this with both the retail DVD and the four-CD set (on the theory that it might be having trouble reading DVDs) with no luck. I'm pretty certain the drive is good, as the Debian install went off without a hitch, but I'm lost as to what the problem could be in that case. Does this model of PowerBook require an OEM install CD or something?
