Guide to install Tiger with PearPC
This guide is scraped together from work done by OWC and a178235, over at pearpc.net, but reshuffled to be continuous and hopefully, more readable.
You'll need PearPC running with OS X 10.1, 10.2 or 10.3 installed or access to a Mac to restore the DVD to an IMG file the first time.
1. Move the DVD image (iso or dmg) to your PearPC HD, through networking or TransMac. You need at least 2.5 gb of free space.
2. Create an empty hard disk image using this file: http://www.pearpc.net/files/macosx_3gb.rar , and set it as the secondary hard drive. Then boot PearPC with it. Give the new hard drive a name, like Tiger_HD.
3. Use the Disk Utility to restore the dmg or iso file to the partition on the secondary hard drive.
So pick Tiger_HD as target, and the dvd image as source.
4. When ready, go to Start up disk, and set your Tiger_HD as the boot drive. Shut down pearpc.
5. Now change your config file so the newly restored imaged is the primary hard drive and set up yet another new preformatted image,
from http://www.pearpc.net/files/macosx_6gb.rar, as the secondary hard drive.
6. Comment out the memory settings in your config file and set the cpu_pvr to G3 emulation (0x00088302)
Start Pearpc and when the installer shows, choose the new 6 GB disk as destination.
7. When ready, stop Pearpc and configure the secondairy hard disk as primairy in your config file.
8. Boot PearPC and you are running Tiger.

There is a wizard that enables you to transfer settings. BUT, I don't know if it will work from one hd image to the other.
If so, you could try to boot tiger on ide0 master and panther on ide0 slave and see if you can transfer settings.
Also, if you've got enough disk space to spare, you can keep both versions of osx running side by side.
CV, if you have any progress to report, please do so here

I saw your question, but have no real answer.
While I do believe someone, somewhere, (in summertime) noted it was possible to change the ics -ip address, I haven't got a clue.
Maybe some Google-ing?
You could also try the proxy-methode, as described here:

[Tiger Install]
Hi,
I followed your guide to install Tiger, but i'm confused with something...
I don't know how to set the new 3GB hard drive (that will host tiger install DVD) as a secondary drive in the pear pc config file, since the master drive is the one where panther is installed (in order to boot), and the slave is the ISO cd install of panther (in order to run disk utility...).
I realized that in the pear pc config file, we can't add a third device.
So, how to set the new drive as a secondary in PPC config file?
Thanks for help in advance.

You start with pather hd as master and the tiger image as slave.
Then you simply copy (not restore with disk utility) the tiger image to the pather hd.
You have to have enough space on the initial pather drive to copy the tiger image onto it.
So niw you a running from the pather disk with the image of tiger on it. Then remove the slave tiger iso from the config, and make the slave point to the 3 gb image file you downloaded.
Reboot
What you end up with is 1 hd with pather running and tiger as dmg file and one empty hard disk to restore the pather dmg to with disk utility
Follow the guide from there.

I copied the tiger ISO file under my panther drive.
Then, I reboot under panther with the new 3 GB HD as slave in the PPC config file, and I can see 2 hard drives in Mac OS X Panther, the one with panther, and the new 3 GB one.
Now, how can I run "Disk Utility" to do the restoring of tiger dmg file since the Panther ISO CD1 is no more in the pear pc config file???

Kernel panic while rebooting with Tiger on virtual HD
hi all thanks for this guide and all the information.
Ok i've followed your guide to install Tiger with pearpc, i've installed panther then successfully restored the TigerDvd.dmg to a blank 6GB Hd image. Then i've set the cpu to G3 and the new HD as primary HD in conf file.
But each time i ran pearpc i encounter a kernel panic error message just after selecting the boot device.
Thks

Ok problem solve
something might have been wrong with the dmg restoration, i've just retored again the dvd image and everything is working fine now.
Thanks
Thanks
