If you have G4.x and the add-ons and expansion packs, you can save yourself a LOT of time and bother with this simple technique.
You can copy the data files from G4 into the proper G5 data folder and you are DONE! All of the add-ons and expansions will then work in G5. No loading CD's!
Look at the First image below. This is how the G5 data folder looks like after a clean installation.
Now look at the Second image below, I have highlighted the files you need to COPY into the G5 data folder.
The final image shows you how the G5 data folder should appear after you copy over the 2.3 gigs of files.
That's it! Nothing to it.
