Classic or not… a Mac Mini G4 (MacOSX 10.4 included) is added to my collection.
I have installed 10.5.8 from an .ISO file. I restored the .ISO file to a secondairy partition on the harddisk and changed the NVRAM to point as boot device to that partition.
With a little bit of help from MacWorld and a little bit of inspiration i got the baby going.
