1) What you're doing is a violation of the EULA on the Tiger installer.. e.g., not legal.

2) The PB installer is built to install on PBs, so it's a no go on your mini.

You should buy a legal version of Tiger and use that.

I'm sure.

The included install disks that come with new Macs only work on that model. Period.
