That should work. I installed OS 10.5 on a G4 800 mhz iMac, which is
just shy of the speed required to install Leopard, started the iMac in
target mode then put the install disk in a G4 Powerbook and installed
the OS on the iMac's disk. Everything worked fine after that except
that the Powerbook would always look for an external drive when
booting (added about 10 seconds to the boot time before it would look
on it's own drive) but Chris had the answer on how to reset the
Powerbook to prefer booting from it's internal drive.
