[X4U] iBook problem

[Terence Cozad]

You might have to boot the iBook in Firewire Target Disk mode from a second 
computer and then use Disk Warrior to repair disk damage. Did you try to 
boot from the DVD that came with the iBook? The DiskWarrior CD might not be 
the correct version for that model mac or the CD drive might be going bad, 
especially if you dont hear any sound from the CD.
