I had this same kind of thing happen with x.3.8, x.3.9 fixed it. Put
a CD in, it never mounts or spins up. On the previous problem there
never was a fix and it wouldn't recognize any discs. I found out
that if I put the Tiger DVD in the drive, then rebooted, it would
recognize and mount that disk, but if I eject it, it won't recognize
there is a disc in the drive again. It doesn't work with any CDs
though and thats the only DVD I have so far. Occasionally, if I
booted with the Tiger DVD in the drive, after trying a CD and
failing, I could put the Tiger DVD back in and it would recognize it
and spin up/mount. Not every time though.
This is on a Pismo, 400mhz with 512MB and a 60GB hard drive that has
otherwise worked great since I got it in December. I was trying to
get a Lombard setup for the mrs, so I had the Lombard drive in my
Pismo to load Tiger on it, but I couldn't load anything else. This
drive swapping thing did work though, to install Tiger on the Lombard
BTW.
Anyone else had any problems like this?
