Have an old eMac. Have a GUID formatted drive that really only works with newer 10.4 machines and all 10.5 machines.

It has a 10.4 and 10.5 image on the external.

Anyways on the older machine I have 10.3 disk that I am using to boot up the machine. Does not have a DVD Drive so it will not read my 10.4 and 10.5 disks. When I boot up the 10.3 disk and go to disk utility I see my external drive and when I try to pull and image from it to Disk Utility it works, but I can not put the internal hard drive in the "Destination".

It says drag a disk to "Destination", but it is not even drag-able. Never seen this before and not sure what my options are on these few machines I need to update to 10.4-10.5.

Any advice would be awesome.
 
Going to boot into target disk mode and use my MBP to image it. Sorry.
