I think it should be possible to get the old disk out and replace it but
it's unlikely to be easy -- I have done it on a G3 iBook, but without a
detailed instruction set I suspect I'd either not have got it apart or
had bits left over. One thing you need to check is whether there are
clearance restrictions on the G4 iBook (the G3 won't take all laptop
disks, only those strictly less than 1cm thick).
