hi
i have an Apple iBook G3 366mhz (firewire) Indigo
On Apple-history.com it says the maximum memory is 320mb.
Will I be able to install a 256mb chip (or two)?
because I'm unable to find two 160mb modules

That model has 64MB on the logic board, and a max of 576MB. There is only one RAM slot.
You need to look for a 512MB PC66 3.3V 144-pin SO-DIMM.
(Info taken from Mactracker.)

You will have to use an external drive. I think this can be done over FW target disc mode but I'm not sure.

10.4 was released in two versions: CD and DVD. Look around for the CD version, although I don't know what kind of luck you'll have.
Firewire disk mode will probably be easier.

only problem is Tiger needs a minimum of 256mb ram -anyone think the ibook will still run it with 160mb?

The plan is to max out the ram.
