"They work on G4's. Am I missing something?"
It sounds like that's that PowerPC version of Tiger that's on those external drives from your G4s, and it can't run on a Intel based MacBook at all. 10.5.2 had nothing to do with this. The Tiger retail Disk is PowerPC only too.
Are you saying that with 10.5.1 on the MacBook you were able to boot these, or was it 10.5.1 on a G4 that you had booted with?
