Jeya, that version of iMac doesn't come with OS X, it's only OS 9.

Iswang, get a firewire cable, start your iMac by holding "T", when u see the screen turn blue with a floating firewire "Y-shape" icon, plug the firewire cable to the iMac & MacMini. Insert the MacMini installer into your MacMini, start the installation, let it reboot, when OS X installer start choose the iMac HDD as your destination.

hmm, even with that, it can be reverted by a simple plist edit.
but this doesnt work for PPC/ Intel only installer.

All intel system's Tiger installer are system locked, even on Macbook CoreDuo & Core 2 Duo you can't share them.

Threadstarter, disc1 of OSX installer is all you need.

what? 256MB? even my G3 350Mhz has more RAM...
you should seriously consider to add more RAMs.
