Having failed utterly at netbooting this poor antiquated PowerBook...

Does anyone have a USB DVD drive that I could borrow for an afternoon? I'm frustrated as all hell with this, and I think my local linux guru's about fed up with this particular imossible project. :(

Early Macs didn't have USB. First Macs to ship with USB were the original iMacs and the Blue & White PowerMac G3. Some late-model PowerBook G3s had USB too, but the earliest didn't.

My first Mac didn't have USB. :op

This is the G3 Lombard, the 1999 model... it's got USB.

I figured, or you wouldn't be calling for a USB drive. :o)
