I have a slight pet peeve with the Mac preservation community, which is that they keep insisting on uploading .toast disk image files instead of standard .iso files for OS restore disks. This means I'd need my G4 already installed to be able to burn the OS install CD I need for my G4 to get it installed...

Seriously though, if folx know where I can pull a .iso of the PowerMac G4 OS X restore disk that would be super helpful.

Edit: solved

@thelobdegg Macintosh Garden definitely has the retail OS X discs. They might have the G4 restore discs hiding somewhere too, but that sort of thing is a bit more hit and miss.
