I have gone through many sites to look for the exact answer. However I failed.

What I want: To completely format my Powerbook G4 to factory or brand new without any DVD/CD or Disk/Disc

Hi all, I'm quite new to Mac and I just got a PowerBook G4 for free. I installed OSX 10.5 on it and for the first two weeks, everything was going kinda smooth even if this is similar to a P3.
