Actually, the cd writer is a usb peripheral, but the cd tray drive has always been able to read disks I've burnt using that.
I'm not even sure if it can read dvds. -----Original Message----- From: Risto Suominen <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, March 28, 2012 12:10 To: John Wesley Cooper <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: Can't read or boot from Squeeze 6.0.4 [ppc] disk 1 on Original iMac 2012/3/28, John Wesley Cooper <[email protected]>: > Yes, it works on other machines, and I've read/burnt cd-r's using this iMac > before. > That's interesting. So you have a CD writer on tray loading iMac. I didn't know they existed. That makes the problem even harder to understand: CD writers should be able to read CD-R's. The CD's format should be standard ISO9660. Flashing OF can hardly help. Perhaps flashing CD drive's firmware... I would try with another CD-R brand...
