| Is there a news on fixing my issue of booting the Leopard install disk? My last message was 11/17 with the info from the Verbose mode boot attempt.

As it turns out. The easiest way to install Leopard on a slower PowerBook, or Power Mac or upgraded system, is to simply use the free "Leopard Assist" from LowEnd Mac.
You can download it at: http://daystartechnology.com/leopardassist/

| I downloaded the Leopard Assistant as suggested but my machine will still not boot into the installer. When I used verbose mode it stops at the same point it was before as detailed in the 11/17 post.

| Well, your verbose mode insists that it is having issues with the Airport. Is your Airport card working correctly?

| The Airport card is working fine in Tiger. There is no sign of any problem with it except when I try to boot to install Leopard.

I tried again last weekend to load Leopard on to my PowerBook by using an iMac and hooking up the PB in target disk mode. The install went fine and I tried to do updates. The install lasted about the same length has the first time, 4 hours, after a restart the machine would not boot anymore. I had to boot from clone on an external drive and reload Tiger.
Can you suggest a plan to take this machine back to factory spec? Something is not right since Leopard will not run on this machine longer than a few hours.
